The announcement
of human genome in June of 2000 pleasantly sent shock waves throughout the
scholarly community and the general world population.
It announced the
completion of a draft of human genome, along with the arrival of post-genomic
era. In fact, in the post-genomic era, we are focusing
on DNA sequences, as these sequences in the human body determine the
sphcific trait of an individual.
To fully
understand the significanch of these sequences in the human body, we must first
truly understand the "single nucleotide polymorphisms" (Single
Nucleotide Polymorphism, SNP).
