Fluorescent allele-specific PCR (FAS-PCR) improves the reliability of single nucleotide polymorphism screening.
The detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) is becoming increasingly important in both the evaluation of candidate gene polymorphisms and fine mapping studies (4,7). Many techniques exist for the detection of SNPs within random sequences, such as single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) (5,6), heteroduplex analysis and direct sequencing, but few techniques specifically identif...
متن کاملSingle nucleotide polymorphism genotyping using allele-specific PCR and fluorescence melting curves.
We present a PCR method for identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), using allele-specific primers designed for selective amplification of each allele. Matching the SNP at the 3' end of the forward or reverse primer, and additionally incorporating a 3' mismatch to prevent amplification of the incorrect allele, results in selectivity of the allele-specific primers. DNA melting a...
متن کاملOptimized sensitivity of allele-specific PCR for prenatal typing of human platelet alloantigen single nucleotide polymorphisms.
PCR using sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP) is widely employed for the genotyping of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in both routine diagnosis and medical research. The human platelet alloantigens (HPAs) represent SNPs in platelet-specific glycoproteins, and HPA-1, -2, -3, and -5 are the most relevant in immunohematology. In most protocols, the respective HPA-SNPs are analyzed in allel...
متن کاملCLN3 by allele specific PCR
The recent isolation of the CLN3 gene involved in Batten disease (juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis) creates possibilities for direct detection of mutations which can confirm or indicate the clinical diagnosis of Batten disease. We have designed a rapid and reliable allele specific PCR test for the detection of the major deletion, which can be used in carrier diagnosis, presymptomatic dia...
متن کاملPCR-based methods for identification of species of the Anopheles minimus group: allele-specific amplification and single-strand conformation polymorphism.
We report two polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based methods for distinguishing morphologically similar species based on amplification of a variable region of the 28S gene of ribosomal DNA. The four species we investigated are mosquitoes of the Anopheles minimus group: An. aconitus, An. varuna and An. minimus species A and C. The formally named species are vectors of human malaria parasites in s...
