Screening for hereditary fructose intolerance mutations by reverse dot-blot.
Molecular and cellular probes - 1 Feb 1999
Lau J, Tolan D R
Abstract excerpt
An assay is described which is useful for genetic screening of the two most prevalent mutations that cause hereditary fructose intolerance (HFI). Both mutations lie within exon 5 of the aldolase B gene. Amplification of exon 5 from genomic DNA isolated from peripheral lymphocytes using biotinylated aldolase B-specific primers yields a biotin-tagged probe. This probe is hybridized to complementary poly(dT)-tailed...
