1 Nature and nurture in behavioral problems Eco de Geus Department of Biological Psychology, Neuroscience Campus / EMGO + institute VU University, Amsterdam The Netherlands
2 Topics Quantitative Genetics Genetic variance Genetic covariance between family members Twin Family Studies (aggression & borderline personality) Heritability estimates Sex differences - Gene-environment correlation and interaction Gene Finding studies (conduct disorder & depression) Candidate gene approach Whole genome association
3 GENES (past) ENVIRONMENT Nature & Nurture GENE x ENVIRONMENT INTERACTION DISPOSITION (current) ENVIRONMENT GENE x ENVIRONMENT CORRELATION BEHAVIOR Pi = µ + Gi + Ei + Gi*Ei Variance(Pi) = variance(g)+variance(e)+variance(g*e)+2*covariance(g,e)
4 Genetic variance Allele of Father Mother B E2 (CA) 3 b E4 (CA) 9 Ok Toxic Gene = unit of heredity (makes a protein) Locus = physical (base pair) location in a gene Allele = different variants of the gene at a locus (SNP, haplotypes, repeats) Homozygous genotype = paternal and maternal alleles are identical Heterozygous genotype = paternal and maternal alleles are different
5 Allele of Father Mother Mendelian traits (yes/no) B b Exon T allele for dysfunctional or toxic protein Ok T gm gf gm gf x T gm gm gm gf gf gm gf gf T T 1/4 1/4 1/4 1/4
6 Allele of Father Mother Quantitative traits B b Regulatory zone b..b increasing alleles for better transcription: more growth protein synthesis Ok Tox d = (179) 191 bb Bb m BB -a = -12 a = +12 Example: A stature gene with a bi-allelic polymorphism in the regulatory zone of a growth protein yields three types of persons with three different heights: 167, 175, 191 cm.
7 A breeding (thought!) experiment P homozygote seletion (BB fathers * bb mothers) => F1, all Bb F1 intercross (Bb fathers * Bb mothers) => F2, BB, Bb, bb Genotype (i) BB Bb bb Frequency (f) ¼ ½ ¼ Genotypic effect (x) a d -a f * x ¼ a ½ d -¼ a Mean genetic effect (µ g ) = f i *x i {a=12, d=-4} Genetic variance (V *(x -µ 2 G ) = f i i µ g ) = 12*¼ + -4*½ + -12*¼ = -2 =¼*(12 --2) 2 + ½*(-4 --2) 2 + ¼*( ) 2 = 76

10 Familial resemblance Pi = µ + Ai + Di + Ei +Ci + gene environment interaction terms V P = V A + V D + V E + V C + variance of the gene environment interaction terms + gene-environment covariance terms. COV P (relative1, relative2) = β*v A + γ*v D COV P (sibling, sibling) = ½ V A + ¼ V D + 1V C + δ*v C COV P (parent, offspring) = ½ V A COV P (uncle, nephew) = ¼ V A + 1V C CAVEAT: Family members share part of their environment (SES, Neighborhood, Diet, Parental rearing style, School, etc.). This common environment (C) can also contribute to family resemblance!!!

12 Sex differences Testable Assumptions: 1. a female = a male ; d female = d male ;e female = de male 2 Same genes influence trait in males and 2. Same genes influence trait in males and females (in DZ twins of opposite sex A factors are.5 correlated; D factors are 0.25 correlated)

22 Gene Hunting Association with candidate genes Testing for a significant association between the trait and a specific variant of a known gene. Linkage analyses Testing for co-segregation of traits and highly polymorphic DNA markers within families. Only the location of the markers is known, the gene may be unknown. Whole genome association Testing for a significant association between the trait and > SNP markers that tag most of the SNP variation in the entire genome.

24 Candidate Genes The MAOA enzyme, coded by MAOA gene on the X- chromosome m (Xp11.23) inactivates serotonin (and norepinephrine). A common 30 bp repeat (VNTR) polymorphism in the upstream region (MAOA u-vntr) affects transcription in vitro The presence of 3.5 or 4 repeats is associated with relatively higher her MAOA expression (MAOA-H alleles), whereas the presence of 3 repeats (and, possibly, 5 repeats) results in relatively lower expression (MAOA-L alleles) (Sabol et al., 1998).

Assign the SNP/CNPs to genes; prioritize iti 5 to 10 variants because they are coding or regulatory or all occur in the same gene. Follow-up these variants in replication samples that are 2 to 5 fold larger than the discovery sample. A posteriori use our knowledge from biology to make sense of the finding or do new experiments.
