Patent CA-2468273-A1 (CA)
Inventor: VOGELSTEIN BERT
IPC: C12N15/09
Filed: 2002-12-04
Abstract: Des maladies génétiques peuvent se diagnostiquer par une détection de mutations dans les gènes responsables. Les essais de troncation de protéines conviennent à la détection des produits géniques issus des mutations de type des troncations. Toutefois, la sensibilité des essais ne suffit souvent pas pour détecter des mutations présentes dans un échantillon d'ADN à basse fréquence. Pour augmenter la sensibilité, on a la possibilité de diviser les échantillons de façon que le signal produit par un allèle mutant comprenne une partie plus grande des allèles totaux qu'avant la division. De cette façon, un signal autrefois indétectable produit par l'allèle mutant peut devenir détectable dans l'essai. Une telle sensibilité accrue permet la détection à un stade précoce, de même que dans des échantillons comportant des niveaux élevés d'autres allèles.
