METHOD FOR DETECTING GENE MODIFICATIONS BY MEANS OF ASYMMETRICAL PCR AND BLOCKING AGENTS
摘要
<p>A method of detecting at least one gene modification such as a mutation in a gene includes carrying out an asymmetric polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with a combined use of at least one detectable mutation-specific hybridization probe (sensor probe) and at least one wild-type specific blocking agent which inhibits a binding of the at least one detectable mutation-specific hybridization probe (sensor probe) to a wild-type gene so as to provide at least one of a selective intensification and an amplification of a detection of a gene segment of a mutation gene having a gene modification.</p>
