Cystic fibrosis (CF) mutation detection and frequencies in central New York state using single strand conformation (SSC) and heteroduplex analysis (HA) gel analysis
- SUNY Health Science Center, Syracuse, NY (United States)
Over 100 cystic fibrosis (CF) bearing chromosomes from patients living in central New York state have been screened in order to identify their CF mutations. Ethnic background information and parental samples were also collected when available. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplified products from exons 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14B, 15, 17B, 19, 20, 21 and intro 19 have been screened for over 50 known CF mutations by restriction enzyme digest, heteroduplex analysis (HA) and/or single stand conformation (SSC) gel analysis. The exon 9 PCR product was difficult to analyze by HA or SSC gel analysis. Restriction enzyme site generating PCR primers were used to identify the R117H, 711+1,G>T, G542X, 1717-1,G>A, 1898-1,G>A and N1303K CF mutations. Haplotyping at CFTR-linked (xv-2c/Taq I, km19/Pst, I, MP6d.9/Msp I and J3.11/Pst I) and CFTR intragenic markers (intron 6 GATT{sub n}, 1540 A/G, 1898+152,T/A) was performed to aid in CF mutation identification.
