  • DNA Sequence Variation, Epigenetics, and Gel Electrophoresis

    The most common of these (and probably the answer this question is looking for) is the polymorphism, also known as the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) or single nucleotide variation (SNV). There are several possible consequences of a SNP.

  • Polymorphism in bird populations

    Polymorphisms within intronic sequences may also have an impact on regulatory features of the gene expression as enhancer can be found within intron. It would be rare for the single-base polymorphism to affect splice junctions but possible.

  • Crime and DNA testing

    In some cases this is a particular pattern formed by restriction enzyme fragments (RFLPs), variable lengths of repetitive DNA (variable length polymorphisms), or a single nucleotide differences (single nucleotide polymorphisms).
