20、 Amplicon Design at,Size of PCR fragment,The optimal size range for detecting mutation/SNPs by DHPLC with 100%accuracy is 150-500bp.,Fragments 500 bp can be generated but sensitivity decreased and time of elution increased.,For fragments 150 bp,difference of melting point between fragments too narro
21、w(the fragments melt over too narrow a temperature range).,Quantity of PCR fragment,The PCR product should be sufficiently concentrated that 2 l run on an agarose gel produces a clearly visible band(20 ng/l),Dilute samples(very low yields)produce poor quality results(poor signal:noise ratio).,Very h
22、igh yields can lead to large proportions of misincorporations and hence increased difficulty in calling mutations.,Usually 3-10 l(50-200ng)of unpurified PCR product would be injected onto the column(per one temperature).,A 8 l minimum aliquot of PCR product should be supplied in PCR tubes in strips

28、f sequence variants,The presence of heteroduplexes is often detected as a change in the number of peaks(may be 2,3 or 4 peak pattern).,Two peak patterns account for the majority of mutations.,Complete resolution of the 2 heteroduplexes is not always necessary.,Mutations may appear only as a slight b
29、roadening of the single peak,or as a subtle change to a shoulder on the peak.,All samples identified as heteroduplexes by DHPLC analysis must be sequenced in both directions to confirm and determine the nature of the sequence change.,The homoduplex wild-type pattern is typically 1 peak,but may be 2
30、peaks,depending upon the melting profile.,Elution profiles that differ from the wild-type indicate the presence of DNA sequence changes.But the mutation type cannot be predicted from the heteroduplex pattern.,Each mutation in a given PCR fragment is predicted to have a unique heteroduplex pattern(hi
31、ghly specific elution profile).This is useful for quick genotyping of unknown samples by comparison with positive control samples.,However,trace profiles are not always unique for a specific mutation,i.e.different DNA variants can give identical profiles.,Changes in retention time do not accurately

40、The elution profiles of a specific fragment from the different patients are compared with each other and scored according to the general DHPLC criteria.The minimum peak height must be 2mV.Any particular observation should be noted on worksheets or technical reports.,Amplicons with an aberrant eluti
