Abstract
The present invention is based on the discovery of novel polymorphisms (SNPs) in the genes known in the art to contribute to human disease. Such polymorphisms can lead to a variety of disorders that are mediated/modulated by a variant human disease associated protein. The present invention provides reagents used for detecting and expressing the variant nucleic acid/protein sequence as well as methods of identifying and using these variants.
