3 Untranslated Region SNP Definition

A 3' Untranslated Region SNP consists of a variation at an appreciable frequency between individuals of a single interbreeding population of a single nucleotide, due to base substitution, at an equivalent location within the sequence region at the 3' end of a messenger RNA (following the stop codon) that is not translated into protein and may contain transcription and translation regulating sequences.
