Abstract excerpt
We developed a protocol for detection of mutations in the pncA gene associated with M. tuberculosis resistance to pyrazinamide by analyzing melting curves of 7 overlapping amplicons with artificial heteroduplex formation (H-HRM) formed by co-amplification of wild-type DNA and test DNA and compared its efficiency and robustness with those of classical HRM analysis. Using HRM and H-HRM, we analyzed 35 PZAR DNA...
