A nucleotide consists of a nucleoside linked to a phosphate group. They form the basic structural unit of nucleic acids such as DNA. When dealing with genetics, polymorphism is the presence of genetic variation within a population.Using these two definitions to understand SNP more, we learn that SNP is simply a variation in a single base pair in a DNA sequence. The species that SNP is found in is homo sapiens, or the human species. Its clinical significance is that it is pathogenic. Based on previous research and investigation, these SNPs are associated with congenital long QT syndromes (LQTSs), which are heart rhythm disorders that can potentially cause fast, chaotic heartbeats.The rapid heartbeats can trigger a sudden fainting spell or seizure, and can even cause death in some cases from beating erratically for so long.
