Abstract excerpt
Polymorphisms of Thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT) are known to be associated with leukemia, inflammatory bowel diseases, and more. The objective of the present study was to identify novel deleterious missense SNPs of TPMT through a comprehensive in silico protocol. The initial SNP screening protocol used to identify deleterious SNPs from the pool of all TPMT SNPs in the dbSNP database yielded an accuracy of...
