Term · Oncology and biomedicine · MLC-T-ONC-007837
A DNA sequence variation that occurs when a single nucleotide (adenine, thymine, cytosine, or guanine) in the genome sequence is altered. SNVs may be rare or common in a population. Sometimes SNVs are referred to as single nucleotide polymorphisms if they are present in at least 1% of the population. Also called single nucleotide variant.
