Abstract: We have developed a set of probes to detect and identify 46 types of mucosal human papillomaviruses (HPV). These probes recognize the variable region comprised between the 2 conserved regions of the published GP5+/GP6+ set of PCR primers. The example described in this application, called NML Luminex genotyping method, uses a multiplex assay based on nested PCR amplification and the Luminex xMAP technology. The 46 probes have been shown to hybridize, as intended, to the DNA derived from the following HPV types: 6, 11, 13, 16, 18, 26, 30, 31, 32, 33,, 35, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 45, 51, 52, 53, 54, 56, 58, 59, 61, 62, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 89, 90, 91 and 97. The hybridization of each probe is specific for each type without any cross hybridization among types and it is sensitive enough to allow detection of PCR products for genotyping of HPV DNA contained in clinical samples. We also present a validation of the NML Luminex method against direct sequencing of HPV types and against the Roche Linear Array, a leading commercial method for HPV genotyping. The probes described here are suitable for use in other assays based on hybridization with labelled target HPV DNA, including, but not limited to, Southern and Northern blots, reverse line blot hybridization, DNA microarray, or ELISA.
