Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the neurofibromatosis type 2 gene (NF2) cause benign nervous system tumors. Common methods for detecting NF2 mutations (such as single stranded conformational polymorphism analysis and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis) are laborious and time-consuming. We adapted and improved a commercial assay, the Non-Isotopic RNase Cleavage Assay (NIRCAtrade mark, Ambion, Austin, TX) for rapid,...
