Selected aneuploidies can be rapidly diagnosed by the analysis of fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products of chromosomespecific and highly polymorphic small tandem repeats (STRs). The quantitative STR patterns obtained from samples of normal individuals are markedly different from those
Quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) assays and small tandem repeat (STR) markers have been successfully employed for the rapid detection of major numerical aneuploidies affecting human autosomes. So far, the analysis of chromosomes X and Y disorders has been hampered by the r
Cystinuria is an autosomal recessive aminoaciduria in which two clinical types have been described (type I and non-type I). Cystinuria type I is caused by mutations in SLC3A1, a gene located in 2p16 coding for an amino acid transporter named rBAT. Using multiplex semi-quantitative fluorescent PCR, w
The polymerase chain reaction was used to amplify six small variable number of tandem repeat loci in two reactions (D19S20 co-amplifying with D17S5 and D1S80; D17S766 co-amplifying with D16S83 and D17S24). When coupled with fluorescent detection of the products, this provides a rapid, highly discrim
