SNPs, Chips, and the
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are DNA sequence variations that occur when a single nucleotide is altered. A SNP might change the DNA sequence from AAGGCTAA à ATGGCTAA. SNPs occur every 100 to 300 bases. SNPs can occur in both coding and noncoding regions of the genome. Some SNPs have no effect on cell function, but others can have a major impact on how humans respond to disease and drug therapies. This makes SNPs of great value for biomedical …showed first 75 words of 1475 total…

…showed last 75 words of 1475 total…benefits when considering the possible negative aspects of the database. There have already been several breakthroughs resulting from the project. For example, Decode has announced that it has located a gene linked to high blood pressure and hope it might eventually lead to new medicines for patients with high blood pressure. The project holds great potential for the development of new medications and treatments that will aid the medical field in preventing and treating. diseases.
