- (genetics) genetic variation in a DNA sequence that occurs when a single nucleotide in a genome is altered; SNPs are usually considered to be point mutations that have been evolutionarily successful enough to recur in a significant proportion of the population of a species
How To Use single nucleotide polymorphism In A Sentence
- We investigated the association between 48 coding and three non-coding single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from 35 inflammatory genes and the development of CAD, using a large discordant sibship collection (2699 individuals in 891 families). BioMed Central - Latest articles
- A multidisciplinary international team demonstrated through botanical examination, phytochemical investigation, and genetic deoxyribonucleic acid analysis by polymerase chain reaction that this material contained tetrahydrocannabinol, the psychoactive component of cannabis, its oxidative degradation product, cannabinol, other metabolites, and its synthetic enzyme, tetrahydrocannabinolic acid synthase, as well as a novel genetic variant with two single nucleotide polymorphisms. 2,700-year-old marijuana stash found
- All eg95 sequences showed double-peaks in regions of high quality reads, which were interpreted as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and not heterozygosis, because our primers amplify separate eg95 loci. PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles
- This magnificent enterprise has charted our species' path out of Africa using successive generations of markers: blood type, allozyme, mitochondrial DNA, the Y chromosome, and nuclear single nucleotide polymorphisms SNPs. "On Human Diversity"
- Gene mutation can occur at many levels - from single nucleotide polymorphisms, to the introduction of stop codons and longer stretches of DNA (whole genes, even) via intron/exon shuffling. On Thursday, the Legg report will be published along with...
- The aim of this study was to characterize the molecular basis of the oncogenicity of CH-ES1 cells, we looked for abnormal chromosomal copy number (by array Comparative Genomic Hybridization, aCGH) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles
- Standard cytogenetic analysis including preparation of karyotypes, metaphase and interphase based fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), high resolution single nucleotide polymorphism oligonucleotide based array (SNP array) analysis and mutation analysis of the INI1/SMARCB1 gene are available.
