One of the many benefits from the sequencing of the human genome is a new understanding of the role of genetic variations, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) and haplotypes. Once used as a tool to help scientists decipher the human genome, SNP and haplotype analysis now is an important tool used to study the relevance of genetic variations to human health. A common SNP may cause a gene to make a different amount of a protein, change the timing of protein synthesis or make a variant protein, each of which may lead to a discernible physiological impact. We have focused on the SNP variations associated with inflammation and metabolic disease.

Interleukin is using these genetic variations to develop the following products:
