Patient 35264 : This patient was close to the negative control and will not amplify as much SNP Information & Primer Design Background: About the Disease SNP SNP is a single nucleotide polymorphism. It occurs commonly within a population in which a single nucleotide (A, T, C, G) differs between members of a biological species. Almost all common SNPS occur within two alleles. SNPs occur within non-coding regions rather than coding regions. Genomic recombination and mutation rate can also vary SNP density. These genetic variations are exploited in DNA fingerprinting which is used in forensic science Primer Design and Testing The non-disease primer was successful while the disease primer did not have any results because of the SNPs in the disease primer.
