SNPs. DNA differs between humans by 0.1%, (1 in 1300 bases) This means that you can map DNA variation to around 10,000,000 sites in the genome Almost all variation is ancient and 90% of SNP variation are constant across all populations

SNPs • DNA differs between humans by 0.1%, (1 in 1300 bases) • This means that you can map DNA variation to around 10,000,000 sites in the genome • Almost all variation is ancient and 90% of SNP variation are constant across all populations • These Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) can be correlated to human disease • 1998 – 4,000 SNPs, 1994 – 7,800,000 nearly all mapped
Alzheimer's Disease • Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) carries cholesterol and fat. It comes in three variants with two SNPs APoE2 (T-T), APoE3 (T-C), ApoE4 (C-C). • In 1993, ApoE4 was correlated with 1/3 of the cases of Alzheimer’s disease • If you have the E4 variant, you have a 60-70% lifetime risk of Alzheimer’s Disease • Current research is focused on drug development that takes advantage of this knowledge
Haplotype Maps • Although there are around 10,000,000 SNPs, they group into a small number of groups of SNPs that are correlated with each other. • So, there are around around 300,000 unique arrangements of the SNPS • This is not that big of a number! • CS people can imagine an exhaustive search
Differences between individuals • Pima Indians • Anti-depressants • Coronary Artery Disease

HapMap Glossary • LD (linkage disequilibrium):For a pair of SNP alleles, it’s a measure of deviation from random association (i.e., no recombination). Measured by D’, r2, LOD • Phased haplotypes: Estimated distribution of SNP alleles. Alleles transmitted from Mom are in same chromosome haplotype, while Dad’s form the paternal haplotype. • Tag SNPs: Minimum SNP set to identify a haplotype. r2= 1 indicates two SNPs are redundant, so each one perfectly “tags” the other. • Questions? help@hapmap.org
