Abstract excerpt
Mutation of primer site for genotyping by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) may cause allele dropout and other genotyping failures. Primary hyperoxaluria type 2 (PH2) is a rare inherited disease caused by overproduction of endogenous oxalate due to mutations in the glyoxylate/hydroxypyruvate reductase (GRHPR) gene. Here, to avoid allele dropout and primer annealing to multiple sites, and given the discrepancy in...
