Difference between Minor allele frequency and Single-nucleotide polymorphism

Minor allele frequency vs. Single-nucleotide polymorphism

Minor allele frequency (MAF) refers to the frequency at which the second most common allele occurs in a given population. A single-nucleotide polymorphism, often abbreviated to SNP (plural), is a variation in a single nucleotide that occurs at a specific position in the genome, where each variation is present to some appreciable degree within a population (e.g. > 1%).

Similarities between Minor allele frequency and Single-nucleotide polymorphism

Minor allele frequency and Single-nucleotide polymorphism have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Allele, Apolipoprotein E, Genome, International HapMap Project, Locus (genetics).

International HapMap Project

The International HapMap Project was an organization that aimed to develop a haplotype map (HapMap) of the human genome, to describe the common patterns of human genetic variation.

The list above answers the following questions

Minor allele frequency and Single-nucleotide polymorphism Comparison

Minor allele frequency has 9 relations, while Single-nucleotide polymorphism has 115. As they have in common 5, the Jaccard index is 4.03% = 5 / (9 + 115).
