Abstract excerpt
Non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) represent common genetic variation that alters encoded amino acids in proteins. All nsSNPs may potentially affect the structure or function of expressed proteins and could therefore have an impact on complex diseases. In an effort to evaluate the phenotypic effect of all known nsSNPs in human DNA repair genes, we have characterized each polymorphism in terms...
