Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are DNA sequence variations which occur when a single nucleotide in the genome sequence is altered. Nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) bring in amino acid polymorphism into their encoded proteins. nsSNPs have relationships in disease processes. Effecting protein function, reducing protein solubility are among the several effects of nsSNPs.

Structure SNP (StSNP) webserver which compare structural nsSNP distributions in many proteins or protein complexes. StSNP enables to researchers to map nsSNPs onto protein structures by comparative modeling of structure with nsSNPs by MODELLER (http://salilab.org) and visualize their structural locations by using the multiple structure-sequence viewer Friend. Pathway information is provided from KEGG database. StSNP includes human nsSNPs.
