The heritability of interindividual variation in anxiety and other aspects of personality establishes that variants of genes influence these traits. A functional polymorphism in the promoter of the human serotonin transporter gene (SLC6A4*C) was identified and found to be linked to an anxiety-related personality trait, Neuroticism. The polymorphism affects gene transcription and, ultimately, gene function. We have attempted to confirm the role of SLC6A4*C in anxiety-related personality traits by sibpair analysis and association studies.
