N1 - Funding Information:
Acknowledgments The Collaborative Study on the Genetics of Alcoholism (COGA) (H. Begleiter, SUNY HSCB principal investigator, T. Reich, Washington University, co-principal investigator) includes nine centers where data collection, analysis, and/or storage take place. This national collaborative study is supported by National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant U10AA08403 from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA). The National Institute of General Medical Sciences has provided continuous funding for the Genetic Analysis Workshops (GAW) since 1982, through grant R01 GM31575 to Jean MacCluer (Southwest Foundation for Biomedical Research). The GAW14 data were kindly provided by Jean MacCluer (Southwest Foundation for Biomedical Research). We acknowledge the contributions of the COGA, supported by NIH grants U10AA08401 and U10AA08403 (NIAAA), and the contributions of all scientists who have provided genotyping data to the wave I and/or wave II—genetic analysis data. We were granted access to the COGA data by NIAAA.
Funding Information:
A funding support for the SAGE was provided through the NIH Genes, Environment, and Health Initiative (GEI) grant U01 HG004422. SAGE is one of the GWAS funded as part of the GENEVA under GEI. Assistance with phenotype harmonization and genotype cleaning, as well as with general study coordination, was provided by the GENEVA Coordinating Center (grant U01 HG004446). Assistance with data cleaning was provided by the National Center for Biotechnology Information. Support for the collection of datasets and samples was provided by COGA (grant U10 AA008401), COGEND (grant P01 CA089392), and FSCD (grant R01 DA013423). Funding support for genotyping, which was performed at the Johns Hopkins University Center for Inherited Disease Research, was provided by NIH GEI grant U01HG004438, the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, the National Institute on Drug Abuse, and the NIH contract “High throughput genotyping for studying the genetic contributions to human disease” (HHSN268200782096C).

N2 - Personality traits like novelty seeking (NS), harm avoidance (HA), and reward dependence (RD) are known to be moderately heritable (30-60%). These personality traits and their comorbidities, such as alcohol dependence (AD), may share genetic components. We examined 11,120 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) genotyped in 292 nuclear families from the Genetic Analysis Workshop 14, a subset from the Collaborative Study on the Genetics of Alcoholism (COGA). A family-based association analysis was performed using the FBAT program. NS, HA, and RD were treated as quantitative traits and AD as a binary trait. Based on a multivariate association test of three quantitative traits in FBAT, we observed 20 SNPs with p < 10(-3). Interestingly, several genes (TESK2, TIPARP, THEMIS, ABLIM1, RFX4, STON2 and LILRA1) are associated with three personality traits with p < 10(-3) using single trait analysis and AD. Especially, SNP rs727532 within ABLIM1 gene at 10q25 showed the most significant association (p = 6.4 × 10(-5)) in the multivariate test and strong associations with NS, HA, RD, and AD (p = 4.48 × 10(-4), 1.2 × 10(-5), 5.6 × 10(-5), 3.12 × 10(-4), respectively) in the COGA sample. In addition, the association of rs727532 with AD was confirmed in a replication study. This study reports some newly recognized associations between several genetic loci and both AD and three personality traits.
