Alcohol Dehydrogenase Gene may Protect from Developing Alcoholism
Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) is one of the major enzymes involved in alcohol metabolism. The genes for ADH are polymorphic at two loci, ADH1B and ADH1C.// The three alleles at the ADH1B locus have previously been linked with protection from alcohol dependence, a new study is the first to exami...Raptor Pharmaceuticals Corp. and TorreyPines Therapeutics, Inc.
