You should change your "Amplification..." sentence to remove the word "condition" and change 25 ml to 25 µL, but other than that it looks okay. Also, maybe spell out "Forward" and "Reverse" when listing your primers.

comment What material is recommended for autoradiography cassettes when working with 32P?
If you're worried, contact your local radiation safety committee - they should have a wide-spectrum detector around that can detect Bremsstrahlung. I've only ever used aluminum/plastic cassettes myself for autorads. The phosphor screen should block a good deal, but you do not want to take any chances where radiation is concerned...

comment SNPs mapping into protein
I assume SNP means Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism? I'm confused exactly what your question is - how does one take a SNP and see what effect it has on the protein sequence? Is that it?

comment 5-HT2A Receptor
I'll answer more thoroughly if you edit and reopen the question, but in the meantime I'd suggest checking out PyMol, a great protein (and other structure) visualizing tool.

comment Are there more descriptive ways of naming genes and gene interactions?
there are actually MAP4Ks as well - Mitogen Activated Protein Kinase Kinase Kinase Kinases :)
