TLDR
The hope that single nucleotide polymorphisms will allow genes that underlie complex disease to be identified, together with progress in identifying large sets ofSNPs, are the driving forces behind intense efforts to establish the technology for large-scale analysis of SNPs.
Abstract
Understanding the relationship between genetic variation and biological function on a genomic scale is expected to provide fundamental new insights into the biology, evolution and pathophysiology of humans and other species. The hope that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) will allow genes that underlie complex disease to be identified, together with progress in identifying large sets of SNPs, are the driving forces behind intense efforts to establish the technology for large-scale analysis of SNPs. New genotyping methods that are high throughput, accurate and cheap are urgently needed for gaining full access to the abundant genetic variation of organisms.

Signature of TL1A (TNFSF15) signaling pathway

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method of treating an inflammatory disease comprising determining the presence of a TL1A signaling profile, and treating the disease by administering a composition comprising a therapeutically effective dosage of one or more inhibitors of TL 1A or TH17 cell differentiation.

Ancestry-informative marker (AIM) SNP panel for the Malay population.

TL;DR: Three methods for selecting AIM SNPs for the Malay population (Malay AIM panel) using different approaches based on pairwise F ST, informativeness for assignment ( I n ), and PCA-correlated SNPs (PCAIMs) are described.

DNA sequencing with chain-terminating inhibitors

TL;DR: A new method for determining nucleotide sequences in DNA is described, which makes use of the 2',3'-dideoxy and arabinon nucleoside analogues of the normal deoxynucleoside triphosphates, which act as specific chain-terminating inhibitors of DNA polymerase.

Enzymatic amplification of beta-globin genomic sequences and restriction site analysis for diagnosis of sickle cell anemia.

TL;DR: Two new methods were used to establish a rapid and highly sensitive prenatal diagnostic test for sickle cell anemia, using primer-mediated enzymatic amplification of specific beta-globin target sequences in genomic DNA, resulting in the exponential increase of target DNA copies.

Specific synthesis of DNA in vitro via a polymerase-catalyzed chain reaction.

TL;DR: A method whereby a nucleic acid sequence can be exponentially amplified in vitro is described in the chapter, and the possibility of utilizing a heat-stable DNA polymerase is explored so as to avoid the need for addition of new enzyme after each cycle of thermal denaturation.
