SNPedia

SNPedia is a wiki that documents the effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which are single-nucleotide variations in DNA. It's a publicly accessible, open-source resource that allows users to contribute information about the known or predicted consequences of these genetic variations.

The purpose of SNPedia is to provide a central repository of information linking SNPs to traits, diseases, drug responses, and other phenotypes. It achieves this by allowing users to add and edit pages related to individual SNPs, incorporating information from scientific literature and other sources.

SNPedia is primarily intended for research and educational purposes. The information contained within should not be used for self-diagnosis or treatment. It's crucial to consult with qualified healthcare professionals for personalized medical advice. Because it is a wiki, the content represents the collective knowledge and opinions of its contributors, and thus should be viewed critically. The information may not always be up-to-date or reflect the current consensus within the scientific community.
