Identification of NT213739 as a marker of NAcc OXTR density.
(a) Quantile-quantile plot of the associations between the 967
Oxtr markers and NAcc OXTR density. Each dot represents the
–log P of the association between a particular SNP with OXTR density
placed in ascending order. (b) A schematic of the mouse
Oxtr gene with accompanying functional data from the ENCODE
project. The prairie vole sequences containing the SNPs showing the strongest
association with NAcc OXTR density that also map to mouse Oxtr
sequence. Approximately 500 bp per SNP of prairie vole sequence surrounding each
SNP was aligned to the mouse genome as indicated by red rectangles in the
figure. ChIP-seq signal or DNaseHS signal is shown. OB, olfactory bulb; Brain,
whole brain; CTCF, CCCTC-binding factor (red) ; H3K4m1, a single methyl
modification of lysine 4 of the H3 histone (orange); H3K27a, acetylation
modification of lysine 27 on the H3 histone (green); DNaseHS, deoxyribonuclease
I hypersensitive sites (dark blue).
