Single-Stranded Conformational Polymorphism
Definition 1
A Single-Stranded Conformational Polymorphism consists of nucleotide sequence variation in the same region of DNA between individuals within a species, or between alleles in an individual, that cause partially denatured DNA fragments to take on different conformations as a result of their nucleotide sequences differences. These conformation differences can be detected through various gel-separation techniques. (NCI Thesaurus)
Definition 2
A type of mutation scanning; the identification of abnormally-migrating single-stranded DNA segments on gel electrophoresis. (NCI Dictionary)
