Text

marginal effect was limited to a main effect of genotype in that study, as this marker did not significantly interact with medication treatment (naltrexone vs. placebo). As ascertained through publicly available data from HapMap analyzed through Haploview, these two OPRK1 SNPs are about 10kb apart and do share some variance in the general population (r2 = 0.38), although not enough to suggest major overlap.
