For Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (Snp) we have terms and definitions in 4 topics. The topics are Fossils, Genome, Huntingtons Disease and Microbiology.

Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (Snp) (Fossils)

A site on the DNA at which the base sequence differs among individuals. (The abbreviation is pronounced "snip.")

Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (Snp) (Genome)

DNA sequence variations that occur when a single nucleotide (A, T, C, or G) in the genome sequence is altered.
See also: mutation, polymorphism, single-gene disorder

Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (Snp) (Huntingtons Disease)

A variation of a gene that differs by one base pair. An example would be substituting an “A” where there is usually a “C” in the genetic code.

Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (Snp) (Microbiology)

A polymorphism caused by the change of a single nucleotide. Most genetic variation between individual humans is believed to be due to SNPs.
