SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) is a type of genetic variation in which a single nucleotide — A, T, C or G — in a person's genome sequence is altered. It is the most common type of genetic variation and is estimated to occur in about 1 in every 100 base pairs. SNPs are important for genetic research because they can help determine the likelihood of a person developing a certain disease or condition. They can also be used to trace ancestry and ancestry-related traits.
