Assigning function to SNPs: Considerations when interpreting genetic variation.

Abstract excerpt

Assigning function to single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to understand the mechanisms that link genetic and phenotypic variation and disease is an area of intensive research that is necessary to contribute to the continuing development of precision medicine. However, despite the apparent simplicity that is captured in the name SNP - 'single nucleotide' changes are not easy to functionally characterize. This...
