Detection of the apoB-3500 mutation (glutamine for arginine) by gene amplification and cleavage with MspI.
A single primer-template mismatch 2 bp from the apoB-3500 (G to A) mutation permits introduction of a cleavage site for MspI (C/CGG) in normal alleles but not in mutant alleles (CCAG). After amplification, cleavage, and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, normal and mutant alleles could be unambiguo...
