Identification of Polymorphism in LEP Gene by Single Strand Conformation Polymorphism (SSCP) in Rathi Cattle

Carrier Determination in a Hemophilia B Family Using Single Strand Conformation Polymorphism (SSCP) and Sequencing

Genetic Polymorphism at the Growth Hormone Locus in Iranian Talli Goats by Polymerase Chain Reaction-Single Strand Conformation Polymorphism (PCR-SSCP)

The growth hormone gene could be an attractive candidate gene for milk production in goats. Single-strand conformation polymorphism was used to identify polymorphism at the goat growth hormone (gGH) gene. For this purpose, genotyping of 90 Talli goat breeds was performed. Nine conformational patterns were observed in exon 4 of the gGH gene, with frequencies of 27.7% for the homozygous pattern (...

Rapid identification of bacteria by PCR-single-strand conformation polymorphism.

A new molecular biological approach for the identification of bacteria is described. This approach employs PCR of bacterial cell lysates with conserved primers located in the 16S rRNA sequence flanking a variable region, and analysis of the amplified product was based on the principle of single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP). The PCR product was denatured and separated on a nondenaturi...

F-SSCP: fluorescence-based polymerase chain reaction-single-strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) analysis.

A fluorescence-based method for polymerase chain reaction-single-strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) analysis, F-SSCP, was developed in which the target sequence is amplified by the PCR using fluorescent primers. The amplified products are then heat-denatured and applied to a water-jacket controlled gel in an automated DNA sequencer. The separated strands are detected as laser-excited f...

Screening for mutations by RNA single-strand conformation polymorphism (rSSCP): comparison with DNA-SSCP.

Single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) is a simple method for detecting the presence of mutations in a segment of DNA, but the fraction of all mutations detected is unclear. We have evaluated SSCP for the detection of single-base mutations in the factor IX gene. Multiple conditions were examined including electrophoresis temperature, electrophoresis buffer concentration, acrylamide to b...
