Abstract

The invention provides nucleic acid sequences that are complementary, in one embodiment, to a collection of human single nucleotide polymorphisms. The invention provides the sequences in such a way as to make them available for a variety of analyses including genotyping a large number of SNPs in parallel by, for example, allele specific hybridization. The invention also provides a collection of human SNPs that is useful for genetic analysis within and across populations. As such, the invention relates to diverse fields impacted by the nature of genetics, including biology, medicine, and medical diagnostics.
