Polymerase chain reaction with confronting two-pair primers (PCR-CTPP) is a convenient method for genotyping single nucleotide polymorphisms, saving time, and costs. It uses four primers for PCR; F1 and R1 for one allele, and F2 and R2 for the other allele, by which three different sizes of DNA are amplified; between F1 and R1, between F2 and R2, and between F1 and R2. To date, we have applied PCR-CTPP successfully for genotyping more than 60 polymorphisms. However, it is not rare that PCR does not produce balanced amplification of allele specific bands. Accordingly, the method was modified by attaching a common sequence at the 5' end of two-pair primers and adding another primer with the common sequence in PCR, in total five different primers in a tube for PCR. The modification allowed one primer amplification for the products of initial PCR with confronting two-pair primers, named as one primer amplification of PCR-CTPP products (OPA-CTPP). This article demonstrates an example for an A/G polymorphism of paraoxonase 1 (PON1) Gln192Arg (rs662). PCR-CTPP failed clear genotyping for the polymorphism, while OPA-CTPP successfully produced PCR products corresponding to the allele. The present example indicated that the OPA-CTPP would be useful in the case that PCR-CTPP failed to produce balanced PCR products specific to each allele.  相似文献

We present a PCR method for identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), using allele-specific primers designed for selective amplification of each allele. Matching the SNP at the 3' end of the forward or reverse primer, and additionally incorporating a 3' mismatch to prevent amplification of the incorrect allele, results in selectivity of the allele-specific primers. DNA melting analysis with fluorescent SYBR Green affords detection of the PCR products. By incorporating a GC-rich sequence into one of the two allele-specific primers to increase the melting temperature, both alleles can be measured simultaneously at their respective melting temperatures. Applying the DNA melting analysis to SNPs in ApoE and ABCA1 yielded results identical to those obtained with other genotyping methods. This provides a cost-effective, high-throughput method for amplification and scoring of SNPs.  相似文献

An allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification method was developed to determine the genotypes at the bovine growth hormone locus that result from two nucleotide substitutions in exon 5 of the gene. This method was a multiplex PCR (ASM–PCR) employing a common primer pair and two allele-specific reverse primers. The common primer pair was designed to amplify a target region containing two substitution points from the three variants of the bovine growth hormone gene. The allele-specific primers were designed to be mismatched with other genotypes at the 3' end of oligonucleotides. When the common and allele-specific reverse primers competed with each other, the shorter allele-specific fragments were amplified preferentially. Consequently, the PCR products of the variant-specific fragments were 347, 483 and 656 bp for alleles A, B and C, respectively, of the bovine growth hormone gene. Genotypes of the bovine growth hormone gene were easily identified by agarose gel electrophoresis of PCR products. The results suggested that this multiplex PCR method would be useful for identification of genetic variants caused by point mutations.  相似文献

We describe a new application of megaprimer polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for constructing a tandemly repeated DNA sequence using the drought responsive element (DRE) from Arabidopsis thaliana as an example. The key feature in the procedure was PCR primers with partial complementarity but differing melting temperatures (T(m)). The reverse primer had a higher T(m), a 3' end complementary to the DRE sequence and a 5' region complementary to the forward primer. The initial cycles of the PCR were conducted at a lower primer annealing temperature to generate products that served as megaprimers in the later cycles conducted at a higher temperature to prevent annealing of the forward primer. The region of overlap between the megaprimers was extended for generating products with a variable copy number (one to four copies) of tandem DRE sequence repeats (71?bp). The PCR product with four tandem repeats (4× DRE) was used as a template to generate tandem repeats with higher copies (copy number large than four) or demonstrated to bind DRE-binding protein in an yeast one-hybrid assay using promotorless reporter genes (HIS and lacZ). This PCR protocol has numerous applications for generating DNA fragments of repeated sequences.  相似文献

It has been shown that benzimidazole (BZ) resistance in sheep gastrointestinal nematodes is linked with an increase in beta-tubulin codon 200 tyrosine-expressing alleles in the resistant parasite populations. Here, an allele-specific PCR has been developed for the discrimination of the TAC/TTC polymorphism in the beta-tubulin 200 codon of small strongyles. One reverse primer was used in 2 separate amplifications with 1 of 2 forward primers that differed only in their final 3' nucleotide. The primers flank a facultative intron/exon. Therefore, the amplified fragments are either 251 or 308 bp in size, depending on the presence or absence of the intron in individual worms. Amplification of genomic DNA isolated from single adult small strongyles from a set of 7 species consistently generated allele-specific products. Three worms each of the following species were used: Cylicocyclus nassatus, Cylicocyclus insigne, Cylicocyclus elongatus, Cylicocyclus radiatus, Cyathostomum pateratum, Cyathostomum catinatum, and Cyathostomum coronatum. PCR with DNA isolated from single larvae also reproducibly generated specific fragments. This method might be applied for the future assessment of allele frequencies in susceptible and resistant populations to further investigate the mechanism of BZ-resistance in small strongyles.  相似文献

SOP3 is a web-based software tool for designing oligonucleotide primers for use in the analysis of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Accessible via the Internet, the application is optimized for developing the PCR and sequencing primers that are necessary for Pyrosequencing. The application accepts as input gene name, SNP reference sequence number, or chromosomal nucleotide location. Output can be parsed by gene name, SNP reference number, heterozygosity value, location, chromosome, or function. The location of an individual polymorphism, such as an intron, exon, or 5' or 3' untranslated region is indicated, as are whether nucleotide changes in an exon are associated with a change in an amino acid sequence. SOP3 presents for each entry a set of forward and biotinylated reverse PCR primers as well as a sequencing primer for use during the analysis of SNPs by Pyrosequencing. Theoretical pyrograms for each allele are calculated and presented graphically. The method has been tested in the development of Pyrosequencing assays for determining SNPs and for deletion/insertion polymorphisms in the human genome. Of the SOP3-designed primer sets that were tested, a large majority of the primer sets have successfully produced PCR products and Pyrosequencing data.  相似文献

We describe a simple protocol to genotype single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which combines allele‐specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with fragment‐length analysis. Three primers are used in the PCR: two allele‐specific forward primers with a length‐difference and one reverse primer. The forward primers induce a length‐difference between the SNP‐variants, which can be assessed with standard fragment‐length analyses. We designed primers for 21 SNPs, and codominance was achieved for 76% of these SNPs. An inexpensive and flexible laser‐detection scoring protocol can be achieved with multiplex scoring and by incorporating the M13(‐21) genotyping method.  相似文献

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based nuclear DNA markers were developed for fern species. We first determined the partial nucleotide sequence of cDNA of the pgiC gene encoding cytosolic phosphoglucose isomerase from Dryopteris caudipinna, and then PCR primers for exon-primed, intron-crossing (EPIC) amplifications were designed. The EPIC primers are universally applicable to the most derived indusiate fern families such as Dryopteridaceae, Thelypteridaceae, and Woodsiaceae. The PCR products of primers 14F/16R containing two introns are moderate in size (534 bp-ca.1000 bp) and are possibly of value in phylogenetic reconstruction at specific and generic levels. Codominant nuclear DNA markers applicable to the estimation of mating systems and other population genetic studies were also developed by a combination of single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) and EPIC amplification using primers 14F/15R and 15F/16R. In order to provide a case study using these markers, allelic variation of PCR products using 15F/16R was examined in populations of Arachniodes standishii (Dryopteridaceae).  相似文献

PCR-direct sequencing (DS) is thought to be a very reliable method of determining DNA sequence and genotyping. Under certain conditions, however, DS can generate inaccurate results. Here we report a case of erroneous DS, in which a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the human PAX9 gene was mistyped due to allele-dependent PCR amplification. Examination of the amplified region showed that the 5' eight bases of one of the PCR primers were identical to the eight bases of the reverse strand downstream of the SNP, and the ninth base matched one of the alleles. Altering the primer so that it matched the other allele reversed the allele-specific inhibition. Reducing the base-pairing abolished the inhibition. Thus, the SNP was responsible for the difference in annealing efficacy of the primer and was therefore critical for the allele dependency. The allele-specific inhibition presented here can occur with any PCR primer sequence that encompasses a site that is polymorphic in the gene sequence. This phenomenon needs to be considered as a possibility when interpreting results from all PCR-based experiments. Sequence similarity between PCR primers and internal amplified regions should be considered for all methods for mutation detection and genotyping using PCR.  相似文献

A rapid nonradioactive method for the diagnosis of the most frequent Mediterranean beta-thalassemic mutations is described based on a multiplex allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR). This method allows direct detection of normal or mutated alleles on genomic DNA. We have used this approach to detect the most frequent Mediterranean mutations: IVS-1 nt 110 (G----A) and 39 nonsense (C----T). For each mutation three allele-specific oligonucleotides were used: one common upstream primer and two downstream primers differing in their terminal 3' nucleotide (one specific for the normal allele and one for the mutant allele). For each sample two PCR reactions were performed in parallel using in one case IVS-1 nt 110 and codon 39 normal primers and in the second case using the corresponding mutated primers. In both cases the different PCR fragments were visualized. After optimization these primers directed only amplification of their complementary allele. A single blind study was performed on the DNA of 18 individuals who were homozygous or heterozygous for these mutations. In comparison with a parallel investigation, using oligonucleotide probes, all the results were unambiguous. This diagnosis method, which is rapid, easy, direct, and inexpensive, allows the screening of a population group, including heterozygotes, which is required from an epidemiological and anthropological point of view. It could be extended to the large series screening of haplotypes before targeted diagnosis of various genetic diseases.  相似文献

The role of 3' exonuclease excision in DNA polymerization was evaluated for primer extension using inert allele specific primers with exonuclease-digestible ddNMP at their 3' termini. Efficient primer extension was observed in amplicons where the inert allele specific primers and their corresponding templates were mismatched. However, no primer-extended products were yielded by matched amplicons with inert primers. As a control, polymerase without proofreading activity failed to yield primer-extended products from inert primers regardless of whether the primers and templates were matched or mismatched. These data indicated that activation was undertaken for the inert allele specific primers through mismatch proofreading. Complementary to our previously developed SNP-operated on/off switch, in which DNA polymerization only occurs in matched amplicon, this new mutation detection assay mediated by exo(+) DNA polymerases has immediate applications in SNP analysis independently or in combination of the two assays.  相似文献

We tested applicability of a new genotyping technique to detect a low abundance CD17 (A → T) mutation of β-globin gene. The technique utilized a combined gap ligase chain reaction (Gap-LCR) and quantitative PCR (qPCR) methods. One pair of Gap-LCR primers was modified by adding specific sequences to the 5′ end of the upstream and the 3′ end of the downstream primer which served as a combining sequence for qPCR. First, specific mutation is detected using Gap-LCR; then, ligation products are detected by qPCR. Our results show that the amount of LCR products is directly proportional to the amount of template DNA. We further demonstrate that this technique detects a low abundance mutant DNA with a mutant/normal allele ratio as low as 1:10000. This technique was applied to detect a paternally inherited CD17 mutation from 53 maternal plasma samples. The results were consistent with those obtained by PCR/reverse dot blot of amniotic fluid cell DNA. In conclusion, by combining Gap-LCR and qPCR technology we successfully established a highly sensitive technique to detect low abundance point mutations. This technique can be applied to detect fetal DNA point mutation in maternal plasma.  相似文献

We developed a modified allele-specific PCR procedure for assaying single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and used the procedure (called SNAP for single-nucleotide amplified polymorphisms) to generate 62 Arabidopsis mapping markers. SNAP primers contain a single base pair mismatch within three nucleotides from the 3' end of one allele (the specific allele) and in addition have a 3' mismatch with the nonspecific allele. A computer program called SNAPER was used to facilitate the design of primers that generate at least a 1,000-fold difference in the quantity of the amplification products from the specific and nonspecific SNP alleles. Because SNAP markers can be readily assayed by electrophoresis on standard agarose gels and because a public database of over 25,000 SNPs is available between the Arabidopsis Columbia and Landsberg erecta ecotypes, the SNAP method greatly facilitates the map-based cloning of Arabidopsis genes defined by a mutant phenotype.  相似文献
