Abstract excerpt
Detecting rare sequence variants in genomic DNA is central to the analysis of de novo mutation and recombination events and the detection of rare pathological mutations in mixed cell populations. Current PCR techniques suffer from noise that limits detection to variants present at a frequency of at least 10(-4)-10(-5) per cell. We now describe an alternative approach that recovers genomic DNA molecules containing...
