Abstract excerpt
We have developed an array-based resequencing method to determine genetic alterations in putative cancer genes. The method relies on that the specificity of DNA polymerase in allele-specific extensions can be enhanced by terminating the extension reactions with apyrase and that a tiling set of primers are synthesized covering the investigated gene sequence. We report on such apyrase-mediated allele-specific...
