A probe for detecting a mutation in the JAK2 gene is provided that can detect a target sequence containing a mutation even when the target sequence containing the mutation and a non-target sequence containing no mutation coexist, which are different only in a single base from each other. The probe to be used is an oligonucleotide that is at least one oligonucleotide having a sequence identical to that of a region extending from a cytosine base (C) at position 84 to be considered as the first base to any one of the 17th to 22nd bases in the direction toward the 5′ end in exon 12 of the JAK2 gene consisting of the base sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, with the cytosine base (C) being the 3′ end. Even in the case of a sample containing both the JAK2 genes with a mutation that has occurred and without a mutation that has occurred, the use of such a probe in, for example, Tm analysis allows the former mutation to be detected. Preferably, the probe is labeled with a fluorescent dye.
