Abstract excerpt
The ligase chain reaction (LCR) was evaluated as an amplification method for an in vivo mutation assay. Specifically, the ligase was tested for its ability to selectively amplify a DNA sequence mutated at a single base, in the presence of an excess of wild-type DNA. As a model template a 370-bp DNA fragment of the mouse Ha-ras protooncogene containing an A to T mutation at the second position of codon 61 was...
