DRD4-Exon III Gene

Hi, I've just bought a copy of the DaVinci Method book as it seemed to have maybe some practical advice and it talks about people having a DRD4-Exon III Gene, which is linked to the novelty seeking personality trait as well as  Bipolar Disorder.

Have you heard of this Gene as it sounds pretty interesting.

If so any idea how much it costs to be tested for it, or where I could go to get tested for it.

Could really use any info you have on it.

Do you know which genes they tested for and why?

I had to have genetic testing done back in 2003... I just went to my GP and he ordered the test. It took over a week to get it back (no telling where the lab was they shipped it to).

I'm not sure on the cost... luckily, my insurance covered it (just about the only thing they covered that year).
