EZH2 Single Nucleotide Variants (SNVs): Diagnostic and Prognostic Role in 10 Solid Tumor Types
The enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) gene encodes a histone methyltransferase that is a catalytic subunit of the Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) group of proteins that act to repress gene expression.

Influence of the MDM2 single nucleotide polymorphism SNP309 on tumour development in BRCA1 mutation carriers [PDF]
BackgroundThe MDM2 gene encodes a negative regulator of the p53 tumour suppressor protein. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the MDM2 promoter (a T to G exchange at nucleotide 309) has been reported to produce accelerated tumour formation in ...

The Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) Validity to Detect Omicron Variants
Introduction. Mutation of SARS-CoV-2 has generated several variants of concern (VOC) which spread promptly worldwide. These emerging variants affected global strategies to overcome COVID-19. Variants of SARS-CoV-2 are determined by the whole genome sequencing (WGS) assay, which is time-consuming, with limited availability (only in several laboratories).

A novel DRD2 single-nucleotide polymorphism associated with schizophrenia predicts age of onset : HapMap tag-single-nucleotide polymorphism analysis [PDF]
Background: Dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2) is thought to be critical in regulating the dopaminergic pathway in the brain which is known to be important in the aetiology of schizophrenia.

Single nucleotide variants in microRNA biosynthesis genes in Mexican individuals
Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators in a variety of biological processes, and their dysregulation is associated with multiple human diseases. Single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in genes involved in the processing of microRNAs may alter miRNA regulation and could present high allele heterogeneity in populations from different ethnic ...

Investigations into the molecular effects of single nucleotide polymorphism [PDF]
Objectives: DNA sequences are very rich in short repeats and their pattern can be altered by point mutations. We wanted to investigate the effect of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) on the pattern of short DNA repeats and its biological consequences.

SNV-FEAST: microbial source tracking with single nucleotide variants
AbstractElucidating the sources of a microbiome can provide insight into the ecological dynamics responsible for the formation of these communities. Source tracking approaches to date leverage species abundance information; however, single nucleotide variants (SNVs) may be more informative because of their high specificity to certain sources.
