Enzymatic mutation detection. Procedure for screening and mapping of mutations by immobilised endonuclease VII.

RESUMO

Endonuclease VII (endo VII) binds to non-pairing nucleotides in DNA. This served as the basis for the development of a mutation detection assay involving immobilised endo VII and heteroduplex DNAs made by hybridisation of mutant and wild type DNA. The use of microtiter plates allows screening of large numbers of samples. Localisation of mutations in positive samples can be done in the same assay in a second optional step.
