nucleotide

• They go by the name SNP—single-nucleotide polymorphism—and often pronounced “snip.” If you compare the DNA sequences of two different people, you'll find them identical for long stretches until suddenly you hit a single base—or nucleotide, as some people like to call it—which isn't the same. —  AnalogSF,June2003
• If each nucleotide were a letter on the page of a large book, they would occupy a million pages. —  Citizendium, the Citizens' Compendium - Recent changes [en]
• Using single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotypes of members of the Centre d'Etude du Polymorphisme Humain families, we found extensive individual variation in the number of recombination events per meiosis. —  HHMI News
• The cladistic structure in this region is used to identify four to six single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that would provide disequilibrium coverage over much of this region. —  CiteULike: Everyone's library
• ABSTRACT: We recently described a method for linkage disequilibrium (LD) mapping, using cladistic analysis of phased single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) haplotypes in a logistic regression framework. —  CiteULike: Everyone's library
