The novel approach of blunt-end single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) has been applied in the analysis of urine samples from bladder-cancer patients for detecting loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of 3 polymorphic markers in the p53 gene. Of the 28 urine samples examined by SSCP analysis of blun

Allelic loss on chromosome 9 is the most frequent and earliest genetic event in bladder carcinogenesis, and its detection in urine samples would be useful for detecting bladder cancer. A highly sensitive method to detect loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at 5 polymorphic loci on chromosome 9p and 9q was
We have developed a fluorescence-based single-strand conformation polymorphism analytis to detect Haelll-sensitive polymorphic sites in intron I of the 7/53 gene. It is important t o treat the PCR products with Klenow fragment t o remove a 3'-protruding nucleotide from the amplified DNA fragments ad
