Abstract excerpt
Mutation detection based on ribonuclease cleavage of basepair mismatches in single-stranded RNA probes hybridized to DNA targets was first described over 15 years ago. The original methods relied on RNase A for mismatch cleavage; however, this enzyme fails to cleave many mismatches and has other drawbacks. More recently, a new method for RNase-cleavage-based mutation scanning has been developed, which takes...
