Abstract excerpt
Allele-specific competitive blocker PCR (ACB-PCR) is a sensitive and quantitative approach for the selective amplification of a specific base substitution. Using the ACB-PCR technique, hotspot cancer-driver mutations (tumor-relevant mutations in oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes, which confer a selective growth advantage) are being developed as quantitative biomarkers of cancer risk. ACB-PCR employs a...
