Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency is an underdiagnosed genetic condition that predisposes to pulmonary complications and is mainly caused by rs28929474 (PI*Z allele) and rs17580 (PI*S allele) mutations in the SERPINA1 gene. OBJECTIVE: Development of a homogeneous genotyping test for detection of PI*S and PI*Z alleles based on the principles of allele-specific PCR and amplicon melting analysis with a...
