Abstract excerpt
The protein truncation test (PTT) is currently the fastest method in general use for detecting previously unidentified mutations in tumor suppressor genes. Greater than three kilobases of coding sequence can be screened by one PCR reaction, one coupled in vitro transcription/translation reaction, and one lane on an SDS-PAGE gel. The 16 kb of BRCA1/2 coding sequence can be screened with nine overlapping segments....
