Abstract:
The present invention relates to the field of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and uses therefore as a predictor of diseases and conditions. Specifically, the present invention provides methods and kits useful in determining whether a subject is at increased risk for developing a cardiovascular disease by screening for the presence of a SNP in the scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) gene of a subject.
