Infobox Single nucleotide polymorphism
rsid = 7997012
gene = HTR2A
chromosome = 13
region = Intron 2Ingenetics , rs7997012 is a gene variation—asingle nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)—inintron 2 of the humanHTR2A gene that codes for the 5-HT2A receptor. The SNP varies betweenadenine (A) andguanine (G) DNA bases with the G-allele being most frequent. [Cite web
