Abstract excerpt
A DNA heteroduplex tracking assay (HTA) using single-stranded probes is described. This assay provides a rapid means of resolving genetic variants coamplified by PCR and of measuring the level of particular variants in complex populations. To confidently detect minor quasispecies changes, the importance of maximizing template input into nested PCR (nPCR) and of duplicating nPCR and HTA to ensure correct...
