Table 1. Distribution of rs6971 genotypes against ligand binding classification.

TSPO genotype
Binding phenotype (subject, n)
DNA (polymorphism rs6971) Protein (position 147) HAB MAB LAB
C/C Ala/Ala 27    
C/T Ala/Thr   12  
T/T Thr/Thr     2

Ala=alanine, Thr=threonine, HAB=high affinity binder, MAB=mixed affinity binder, LAB=low affinity binder.

Genotypes correspond to carriage of the 147 amino acid as follows: CC=Ala147/Ala147; CT=Ala147/Thr147; TT=Thr147/Thr147.
