Oxytocin is a short peptide with multiple functions in human biology and has been implicated in the disorder autism. We set out to determine the normal pattern of variation around the oxytocin gene and have resequenced it and its flanking regions in 91 individuals from four HapMap populations and one chimpanzee. We identified 14 SNPs, all non-coding, including eight that were novel. Population-genetic analyses were largely consistent with a neutral evolutionary history, but an HKA test revealed more variation within the human population than expected from the level of chimpanzee-human divergence.
