Abstract excerpt
N1303K is one of the most frequent non-delta F508 mutations causing cystic fibrosis in Central Europe. Since no restriction site is altered by this mutation and no other frequent mutations are known so far in exon 21, the detection requires a separate and laborious test. A mismatched primer was used to create an artificial Hin dIII site in amplified wildtype DNA, which is destroyed by the mutation. This allows...
