Mutation detection by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE)
1 Jan 1994
Abstract excerpt
The molecular analysis of genetic diseases relies on several technical approaches which allow genetic and physical mapping, characterization of the gene structure, expression studies, and identification of disease-causing mutations. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) allows the rapid screening for single base changes in enzymatically amplified DNA. The technique is based on the migration of...
