Candidate Genes for Ap3q:

Gene	Genome Location (GRCm39)	Reference	QTL Note
Clic4	Chr4:134941280-135000071 (-)	J:98595	Microarray analysis was used to identify genes showing alcohol-induced differential expression between inbred strains C57BL/6J and DBA/2J. These genes were then correlated to alcohol-related QTLs to identify potential candidate genes. The experiment involved identifying genes expressed differentially in alcohol-induced and non-induced animals but the following list of candidate genes are only for alcohol-induced states. On mouse Chromosome 4, several candidate genes were identified for Ap3q at 81 cM and Alcw2 at 40 cM. Candidate genes for Ap3q are Clic4, 2610510H01Rik, Park7, and Tnfrsf9 (75.5 cM). Candidate genes for Alcw2 are Mpdz (38.6 cM) and Nfib (38.6 cM).
Gnb1	Chr4:155575818-155643726 (+)	J:110030	Candidate genes for alcohol traits were identified using gene expression analysis. Total brain RNA from 70-90 day old male mice were hybridized to DNA microarrays to detect expression differences between high and low alcohol preference selection lines (HAP and LAP, respectively) and high and low tolerance selection lines (HAFT and LAFT, respectively). All selection lines were derived from HS/Ibg and were between 19 to 24 generations of selective breeding. Candidate genes mapping to previously identified expression and behavior QTL intervals are described below. Candidate genes were also confirmed using strain distribution patterns from 30 BXD (C=C57BL/6J; D=DBA/2J) recombinant inbred (RI) strains. Kif5c (32.5 cM) on mouse Chromosome 2 exhibits differential expression between high and low acute functional tolerance strains in the BXD RI set. This gene maps near previously identified alcohol preference QTLs Alcp1 (47.5 cM), Ap2q (34 cM), Etohc1 (28 cM), Etohc2 (50 cM), and Alpq2 (45 cM). Gstm1 (108.39 Mb) on mouse Chromosome 3 is more highly expressed in high alcohol preferring lines compared to low alcohol preferring lines. D3Ertd254e (aka LOC241944) at 19 cM exhibits differential expression between high and low acute functional tolerance strains in theBXD RI set. This gene maps near a previously identified locus at D3Pas1 (22.7 cM) associated with basal cAMP signaling. Gnb1 at 79.4 cM (153.38 Mb) on mouse Chromosome 4 is more highly expressed in low alcohol preference lines compared to high alcohol preference lines (LOD=17.13). This gene maps near previously identified alcohol preference QTL Ap3q at 81 cM. Evi5 (56 cM ) and Pdap1 on mouse Chromosome 5 exhibits differential expression between high and low acute functional tolerance strains in the BXDRI set. These genes map near a locus at D5Mit201 (44 cM) suggestively linked to alcohol preference. On mouse Chromosome 9, 4930422I07Rik (88.99 Mb), D930028F11Rik (expressed sequence C130036J11; 48.5 Mb), and Mthfs (130.69 Mb) are more highly expressedin high alcohol preference lines compared to low alcohol preference lines (LOD=7.46, 9.5, and 7.16, respectively). Hyou1 (44.48 Mb) is more highly expressed in low alcohol preference lines compared to high alcohol preference lines (LOD=4.18). Hyou1 and D930028F11Rik map to the Alpq3 (alcohol preference QTL 3) interval (17 cM - 53 cM). Flnb on mouse Chromosome 14 exhibits differential expression between high and low acute functional tolerance strains in the BXD RI set. This gene maps near a previously identified QTL at D14Byu1 (o.5 cM) associated with basal and forskolin-induced cAMP signaling. Brd2 at 18.5 cM (31.81 Mb) on mouse Chromosome 17 is more highly expressed in high alcohol preferring lines compared to low alcohol preferring lines (LOD=3.93). Galnt1 (24.43 Mb) on mouse Chromosome 18 is more highly expressed in high alcohol preference lines compared to low alcohol preference lines (LOD=2.93). Tbl1x (30.9 cM) on mouse Chromosome X exhibits differential expression between high and low acute functional tolerance strains in the BXD RI set.

Stx12	Chr4:132581375-132611769 (-)	J:92934	Six genes showing differential expression in the brains of ethanol-preferring strain C57BL/6J and ethanol-avoiding strain DBA/2J were identified using mRNA differential display. Two of the six mRNA sequences matched functionally known genes, Stx12 (60 cM) on mouse Chromosome 4 and Rlpb1 (39 cM) on mouse Chromosome 7. These genes were typed in 480 (C57BL/6 x DBA/2J)F2 mice and found to segregate with the ethanol preference phenotype. Rlbp1 shows significantly higher expression in the brains of alcohol-preferring F2 mice compared to alcohol-avoiding F2 mice. This effect is stronger in (C57BL/6J x DBA/2J)F2 animals compared to the reciprocal cross (DBA/2J x C57BL/6J)F2. Rlpb1 maps near a suggestive QTL for alcohol preference (D7Mit7, 54 cM) and hypnotic dose sensitivity (Mmpv1, 28 cM) mapped by Rodriguez et al, 1995. Stx12 shows significantly lower expression in the brains of alcohol-preferring F2 mice compared to alcohol-avoiding F2 mice. This effect is stronger in (C57BL/6J x DBA/2J)F2 animals compared to the reciprocal cross (DBA/2J x C57BL/6J)F2. Stx12 maps near a previously identified alcohol preference QTLs Ap3q (81 cM) and a previously identified suggestive QTL for alcohol consumption mapped by Phillips et al, 1994.
