Abstract excerpt
The interleukin-1 (IL-1) gene complex consists of the IL-1alpha, IL-1beta and IL-1 receptor antagonist genes. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in all three genes have been associated with human diseases. In this study, primers containing mismatches at 1-3 nucleotide positions were designed to incorporate a restriction site for endonuclease AlwNI or XcmI in the presence of allele-specific nucleotides at the...
