We previously published a series of detailed maps of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the genomic regions of 209 gene loci encoding drug metabolizing enzymes, transporters, receptors, and other potential drug targets. In addition to the maps reported earlier, we provide here high-resolution SNP maps of 23 genes encoding G-protein coupled receptors in the Japanese population. A total of 300 SNPs were identified through screening of these loci; 83 in four adenosine receptor family genes, 45 in three adrenergic receptor family genes, 22 in three EDG receptor family genes, 29 in three melanocortin receptor family genes, 22 in two somatostatin receptor family genes, 21 in five anonymous G protein-coupled receptor family genes, and 78 in the others (AVPR1B, OXTR, and TNFRSF1A). We also discovered a total of 33 genetic variations of other types. Of the 300 SNPs, 132 (44%) appeared to be novel on the basis of comparisons with the dbSNP database of the National Center for Biotechnology Information (US) or with previous publications. The maps constructed in this study will serve as an additional resource for studies of complex genetic diseases and drug-response phenotypes to be mapped by linkage-disequilibrium association analyses.
