High-throughput single-nucleotide polymorphisms genotyping: TaqMan assay and pyrosequencing assay.

Abstract excerpt

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are DNA sequence variations that occur at a single base in the genome sequence. SNPs are valuable markers for identifying genes responsible for susceptibility to common diseases, and in some cases, they are the causes of human diseases. A genetic study of a complex disease usually involves a case-control association study that requires genotyping of a large number of SNPs in...
