Abstract excerpt
The chemical mismatch method has been utilized to screen for mutations in the apoC-II gene of a patient with familial chylomicronemia and apoC-II deficiency. Cleavage of heteroduplexes formed between normal and patient DNA strands with hydroxylamine and osmium tetroxide readily localized a mutation near base 2660 of the mutant apoC-II. Sequence analysis of PCR amplified patient DNA in the mismatched region...
