Fig. 1From: SLC1A3 C3590T but not BDNF G196A is a predisposition factor for stress as well as depression, in an adolescent eastern Indian populationRestriction digestion by PflF1 of SLC1A3 C3590T amplicon of representative individuals. The amplicon of SLC1A3 C3590T after digestion with the restriction endonuclese, PflF1, in normal condition (i.e when C is present at 3590 position) shows two fragments of DNA, 157 and 75 bp (lane 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 10). A substitution of T in place of C, causes loss of restriction site and only one band of 232 bp (full sized amplicon; lane 5) is obtained. Heterozygotes on the other hand shows three bands of 232, 157 and 75 bp (lane 2, 8, 9, 11, 12)Back to article page
