SNP annotation
open-in-new
<p>Single nucleotide polymorphism annotation (<a href="/facts/Single_nucleotide_polymorphism/Qy5Y2wom">SNP</a> annotation) is the process of predicting the effect or function of an individual SNP using SNP annotation tools. In SNP <a href="/facts/Annotation/dGfVSUKc">annotation</a> the biological <a href="/facts/Information/3LdrzXtJ">information</a> is extracted, collected and displayed in a clear form amenable to query. SNP functional annotation is typically performed based on the available information on <a href="/facts/Nucleic_acid/2tTgcI0v">nucleic acid</a> and <a href="/facts/Protein_sequence/QNBoERdu">protein sequences</a>. </p>
