Abstract excerpt
The arbitrarily primed polymerase chain reaction (AP-PCR) [Welsh, J. & McClelland, M. (1990) Nucleic Acids Res. 18, 7213-7218] has been used to detect somatic genetic alterations in tumors of the colon and rectum. DNA fingerprints generated by single arbitrary primers were compared between normal and tumor tissue of the same individuals. AP-PCR bands showing decreased and increased intensities in tumor tissue...
