Rs4680
In genetics, rs4680 (Val158Met) is a genetic variant. It is a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the ''COMT'' gene that codes catechol-''O''-Methyltransferase. The single nucleotide substitution between G--> A results in an amino acid change from valine to methionine at codon 158. The A or Met allele is associated with lower enzymatic activity (due to thermoinstability), and with exploratory behaviour. The polymorphism has been much studied in schizophrenia research but as of November 2011 meta-analysis in the ''SzGene'' database shows no or very little effect. Several personality genetics studies have examined the association of the polymorphism with personality traits including extroversion, risk aversion, and novelty seeking In Cloninger's model of psychobiology, novelty seeking (NS) is an inherited, unlearned, temperamental bias toward novel signals from the environment. It can be measured along a spectrum from low to high (as with 3 other temperamental domains) and .. ...

Genetics
Genetics is the study of genes, genetic variation, and heredity in organisms.Hartl D, Jones E (2005) It is an important branch in biology because heredity is vital to organisms' evolution. Gregor Mendel, a Moravian Augustinian friar working in the 19th century in Brno, was the first to study genetics scientifically. Mendel studied "trait inheritance", patterns in the way traits are handed down from parents to offspring over time. He observed that organisms (pea plants) inherit traits by way of discrete "units of inheritance". This term, still used today, is a somewhat ambiguous definition of what is referred to as a gene. Trait inheritance and molecular inheritance mechanisms of genes are still primary principles of genetics in the 21st century, but modern genetics has expanded to study the function and behavior of genes. Gene structure and function, variation, and distribution are studied within the context of the cell, the organism (e.g. dominance), and within the ...
