Abstract
⺠The neuronal Ca2+ sensor-1 (NCS-1) gene encodes a dopamine receptor-interacting protein. ⺠Dopamine receptor-interacting proteins (DRIPs) represent novel targets for cocaine addiction. ⺠rs1342043 was associated with cocaine addiction in African Americans. ⺠Sex specific analysis of cases and controls shows an association of rs1342043 in males and rs7849345 in females. ⺠Future studies are necessary to elucidate the role of NCS-1 in addiction.
