Phenome Database. We have developed unique and comprehensive SNP databases. An "SNP" is a single nucleotide polymorphism - a common DNA sequence variation that has great significance for biomedical research. We have developed our SNP databases through the use of proprietary data mining techniques, software and biochemical research and development. To date, we have discovered several thousand SNP sequences useful for drug interactivity screening. Our databases are

fully annotated, and contain relevant LocusLink, Medline, UniGene,Entrez, and PubMed information. Another factor that distinguishes our database is that it contains a molecular address for each target SNP that enables rapid application to microchip based screening platforms. Most of our data and annotation do not currently exist in any public database, and we enjoy their exclusive use.
