Haplotype
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-005096
A set of DNA variations, or polymorphisms, that tend to be inherited together on the same chromosome. It represents a specific combination of alleles at different loci that are closely linked. Haplotypes are often used in genetic studies to trace ancestry and identify disease-causing genes.
