SNP are one of the most important genetic mutations that impact common disease. SNP results from replication errors and DNA damage, this phenomenon occurs exactly once in human evolution. Only sometimes does SNP have a correlation to a certain disease or trait. SNP has several applications in medicine such as gene discovery, allele mapping, and drug response prediction. Primer Design and Testing Results obtained from this lab were used to analyze the DNA sequence of two patients, one with a disease and the other without a disease. This lab demonstrated that primers bind to a certain region of a DNA sequence in order for the amplification of a small sample of DNA. Amplification occurs in two different directions on the DNA strand, the 5` and 3` ends. The 5` primers begins its sequence at the origin of the disease SNP variation location of 34370656. This was the location in the human genome where a thymine nucleotide has been mutated to a cytosine nucleotide, such a mutation results in the SNP disease that is seen in one of the patients. We used the UCSC In-Silico PCR website to test the non-disease primer to match the rs19956218 sequence.
