Abstract
Methods for identifying functional allele profiles of a given gene are disclosed. Functional allele profiles comprise the commonly occurring alleles in a population, and the relative frequencies at which such alleles of a given gene occur. Functional allele profiles are useful in treatment and diagnosis of diseases, for genetic and pharmacogenetic applications and for evaluating the degree to which the gene(s) are under selective pressure.
