Abstract excerpt
Restriction endonuclease fingerprinting (REF), a hybrid modification of single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) and restriction endonuclease digestion, has been used previously to detect mutations in 1- to 2-kb segments of DNA. This paper demonstrates that fragment resolution, and thus sensitivity of REF, can be markedly improved by electrophoresis under partially denaturing, rather than nondenaturing,...
