Abstract excerpt
The Amplification Refractory Mutation System (ARMS) has been successfully applied to the detection of apolipoprotein (apo) E genotypes in human DNA extracted from peripheral blood. By using four allele-specific oligonucleotide primers and one common primer, one can identify the three common alleles of the apo E genetic polymorphism, epsilon 2, epsilon 3, and epsilon 4. The system amplifies two sequences of the...
