Early detection and quantification of mutations in the tyrosine kinase domain of chimerical BCR-ABL1 gene combining high-resolution melting analysis and mutant-allele specific quantitative polymerase chain reaction.

Abstract excerpt

BCR-ABL1 point mutations are the most common cause of resistance in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who fail or lose response to tyrosine kinase inhibitors. We have developed a rapid method to screen BCR-ABL1 mutations by high resolution melting (HRM). We designed a strategy based on amplification refractory mutational system-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (ARMS-qPCR) to identify and quantify...
