Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Melting is a fundamental property of DNA that can be monitored by absorbance or fluorescence. PCR conveniently produces enough DNA to be directly monitored on real-time instruments with fluorescently labeled probes or dyes. Dyes monitor the entire PCR product, while probes focus on a specific locus within the amplicon. Advances in amplicon melting include high resolution instruments, saturating DNA dyes that better reveal multiple products, prediction programs for domain melting, barcode taxonomic identification, high speed microfluidic melting, and highly parallel digital melting. Most single base variants and small insertions or deletions can be genotyped by high resolution amplicon melting. High resolution melting also enables heterozygote scanning for any variant within a PCR product. A web application (uMelt, http://www.dna-utah.org) predicts amplicon melting curves with multiple domains, a useful tool for verifying intended products. Additional applications include methylation assessment, copy number determination and verification of sequence identity. When amplicon melting does not provide sufficient detail, unlabeled probes or snapback primers can be used instead of covalently labeled probes. DNA melting is a simple, inexpensive, and powerful tool with many research applications that is beginning to make its mark in clinical diagnostics.
