Hi All,
I have been sitting on this for a few days because I wanted to see what it entailed. I ran across a request in the PD community to share 29 PD related SNPs and was intrigued, so I sent them on in. I just got the data and supporting research. I don't want to steal his thunder, so I am not sharing data but will attach the Pubmed links supporting his ideas. He points out some interesting things on the latitude/longitude relation to Vitamin D levels; apparently PD clustered geographically both North and South of equator. Study in Scandinavia shows people who work outdoors less like likely to have PD...and so on. Here is a link to SNPs and contact info for Shakeall at 23andme. Oh, and FYI if you are a geek like me and into the SNPs, Mozilla Firefox has a nifty SNPs extension that automatically correlates your genome to what SNPs are on a web page- great for doing research!
