  2. Single-nucleotide polymorphism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-nucleotide_polymorphism

    A tag SNP is a representative single-nucleotide polymorphism in a region of the genome with high linkage disequilibrium (the non-random association of alleles at two or more loci). Tag SNPs are useful in whole-genome SNP association studies, in which hundreds of thousands of SNPs across the entire genome are genotyped.

  3. SNP array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SNP_array

    In molecular biology, SNP array is a type of DNA microarray which is used to detect polymorphisms within a population. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), a variation at a single site in DNA , is the most frequent type of variation in the genome.

  4. snRNP - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SnRNP

    snRNPs (pronounced "snurps"), or small nuclear ribonucleoproteins, are RNA-protein complexes that combine with unmodified pre-mRNA and various other proteins to form a spliceosome, a large RNA-protein molecular complex upon which splicing of pre-mRNA occurs.

  5. Fixation index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixation_index

    Fst values between European populations. The fixation index (F ST) is a measure of population differentiation due to genetic structure.It is frequently estimated from genetic polymorphism data, such as single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) or microsatellites.

  6. Genome-wide association study - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genome-wide_association_study

    It identified two SNPs with significantly altered allele frequency between the two groups. These SNPs were located in the gene encoding complement factor H, which was an unexpected finding in the research of ARMD. The findings from these first GWA studies have subsequently prompted further functional research towards therapeutical manipulation ...

  7. SNP genotyping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SNP_genotyping

    SNP genotyping is the measurement of genetic variations of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) between members of a species. It is a form of genotyping, which is ...

  8. Tag SNP - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tag_SNP

    A tag SNP is a representative single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in a region of the genome with high linkage disequilibrium that represents a group of SNPs called a haplotype. It is possible to identify genetic variation and association to phenotypes without genotyping every SNP in a chromosomal region.

  9. SNP annotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SNP_annotation

    SNPs are currently the marker of choice due to their large numbers in virtually all populations of individuals. The location of these biomarkers can be tremendously important in terms of predicting functional significance, genetic mapping and population genetics. [3] Each SNP represents a nucleotide change between two individuals at a defined ...
