Abstract excerpt
The protein truncation test (PTT) is important in screening for unknown mutations that cause premature termination of mRNA translation. PTT involves amplification of the interrogated sequence, in vitro transcription/translation, separation of the generated polypeptides, and detection. In this article, we report a bioluminescent protein truncation test, in which the detection of the nascent protein is performed...
