摘要 |
The present invention provides a method for detecting features of genic region based on inter-Alu polymerase chain reaction using segments of the consensus sequences of Alu element family, especially the AluY subfamily, as the main oligonucleotide primers to amplify genomic DNA, followed by massively-parallel DNA sequencing of the amplicons. The features of genomic regions detected comprise single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP), point mutations, sequence insertion/deletions (indel) and the level of DNA CpG loci methylation.
