Allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (AS-PCR) was applied to investigate the cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) genotype. AS-PCR is a competitive multiplex PCR method in which PCR amplification is successfully performed only by using the sequence of 3β² oligonucleotide ends as a DNA template in order

## Abstract The apolipoprotein Bβ100 mutation R3500Q is one of the most common inherited defects causing abnormality of the lipid metabolism. We describe a oneβstep, singleβtube PCR technique for detection of the mutation based on competition between alleleβspecific primers. Three oligonucleotides
Maternal allo-immunization to antigens of the Duffy blood group system can result in haemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN), therefore, the application of allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (ASPCR) for prenatal genotyping of the Duffy antigen system to identify pregnancies at risk for HDN wa
We employed the arbitrarily primed polymerase chain reaction (AP-PCR), which is a PCR-based genomic fingerprinting technique, to detect novel genetic alterations in human astrocytomas. DNA fingerprints generated by arbitrary primers were compared in normal lymphocytes and tumor tissues from the same
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are becoming widely recognized as the new currency for gene mapping as increasing numbers are discovered. Here we outline a method for their rapid analysis based on an allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) which employs a competitive approach, whereby
The allele-specific inverse polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique, which has been explored to detect two linked polymorphic regions simultaneously, was applied to genotype the Se system. The major alleles of the Se system in Japanese are Se, sej defined by a single nucleotide substitution in the
