Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to develop a protocol for reliable, sensitive, and cost-effective mutation scanning of the BRCA1 gene, based on a modification of fluorescence-assisted mismatch analysis. The main features of this method are: (a) robust PCR amplification and strandspecific labeling of 25 large amplicons using uniform conditions and universal fluorescent primers; and (b) sensitive characterization of the...
