Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and various lengths of tandem repeats within NOS1 have been linked in other disorders of the brain such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases (Galimberti, et. al, 2008; Rife, et. al, 2009). Out of three identified SNPs occurring in alternative exon 1c, only the SNP G-84A has a functional effect that decreases transcription levels (Galimberti, et. al, 2008). However, various lengths of tandem repeats present in the alternative exon 1f has been shown to be a potential factor in both Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases (Galimberti, et. al, 2008; Rife, et. al, 2009). Shorter tandem TG repeats are possibly associated with the development of Alzheimer’s disease, and longer tandem TG repeats are possibly associated with the development of Parkinson’s disease (Rife, et. al, 2009). Although schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s diseases have genetic influences, mutations in NOS1 can be a risk indicator for developing these diseases (Shinkai, et. al, 2002; Galimberti, et. al, 2008; Rife, et. al, 2009).
