Objectives: Mitochondrial cytopathies such as Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON), mitochondrial encephalomyopathy with lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (MEt.AS), and myoclonus epilepsy with red ragged fibers (MERRF) are associated with distinct mtDNA point mutations (for review see 1
This report describes a rapid convenient screening system with improved sensitivity to detect mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene based on nonisotopic SSCP analysis. Because conventional SSCP analysis is often hampered by poor yield of single-stranded DNA, we applied
