SNP genotyping identifies single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that are common DNA variants present across the human genome. SNPs have been shown to be responsible for differences in genetic traits, susceptibility to disease, and response to drug therapies.
Genotyping of SNPs has become extremely important to researchers working to understand and treat disease. SNPs occur approximately once every 100 to 300 bases and can be detected by various different techniques such as RFLP, SSCP, sequencing, and more.
