Genotype assignment in Gaucher disease by selective amplification of the active glucocerebrosidase gene.

Abstract excerpt

Genomic DNA prepared from human cells in culture was amplified by the polymerase chain-reaction technique using two primers specific for the active human glucocerebrosidase gene. The 1,036-bp amplified fragment derived from the active gene was tested for the existence of three mutations--designated "370," "NciI," and "HhaI"--by allele-specific oligonucleotide hybridization. The results obtained from the cell...
