Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most frequent form of sequence variation in the human genome, occurring on average every 300 base pairs. Owing to their high density, SNPs are considered useful for identifying the genes associated with complex diseases. The focus of this Opinion article is the recent applications of SNPs that fall outside of disease association studies. These applications are...
