[PMID 16339215] identified 6 SLC18A2 promoter variants (listed below w/ position listed relative to the start of transcription [ch10:118,990,624 - human genome release may 2004], the haplotypes associated with increased transcriptional activity over the reference (no variants) were associated with lower observed Parkinson's disease risk
