Experiment
Acute and chronic alcohol exposure was analyzed in 534 (C57BL/6J x C3H/HeJ)F2 mice. Behavioral testing was done using 5 traits, acute drug effect, forced ethanol drinking, withdrawal studies ethanol preference and stress induced ethanol drinking. The following QTL were found in a genome wide scan: Following the QTL is the Chromosome , cM location, and LOD score, Eih1 (Chr 1, 85 cM, LOD 6.6), Eih2 (Chr 7, 10 cM, LOD 3.6), Ceih1 (Chr 3, 55 cM, LOD 4.1), Ceih2 (Chr 6, 24.7 cM, LOD 4.1), Ceih3 (Chr 13, 39 cM, LOD 4.1), Eia1(Chr 1, 65 cM, LOD 10.3 and 10.4), Eiwa1 (Chr 7, 50 cM, LOD 4.4), Eiwa2(Chr 11, 43.1 cM, LOD 4.1),Aldd1(Chr 5, 42 cM, LOD 13.2), Aldd2(Chr 12, 18 cM, LOD 5.3),Eiwax1(Chr 1, 79 cM, LOD 6.5), Eiwax2(Chr 5, 59 cM, LOD 15.0), Eiwax3(Chr 12, 21 cM, LOD 3.6), Methp1(Chr 16, 31.4 cM, LOD 4.3), Mec1(Chr 16, 19.4 cM, LOD 5.1), Epbs1(Chr 16, 33 cM, LOD 4.1), Ecbs1(Chr 16, 29.4 cM, LOD 4.8), Mec2(Chr 1, 109 cM, LOD 3.9), Mec3(Chr 2, 109 cM, LOD 4.3), Mec4(Chr 5, 29 cM, LOD 3.9), Mec5(Chr 10, 2 cM, LOD 5.0), Mec6(Chr 15, 49 cM, LOD 5.2).
