SEB genotyping: SmartAmp-Eprimer binary code genotyping for complex, highly variable targets applied to HBV

Abstract Background SmartAmp-Eprimer Binary code (SEB) Genotyping is a novel isothermal amplification method for rapid genotyping of any variable target of interest. Methods After in silico alignment of a large number of sequences and computational analysis to determine the smallest number of region...

description Abstract Background SmartAmp-Eprimer Binary code (SEB) Genotyping is a novel isothermal amplification method for rapid genotyping of any variable target of interest. Methods After in silico alignment of a large number of sequences and computational analysis to determine the smallest number of regions to be targeted by SEB Genotyping, SmartAmp primer sets were designed to obtain a binary code of On/Off fluorescence signals, each code corresponding to a unique genotype. Results Applied to HBV, we selected 4 targets for which fluorescence amplification signals produce a specific binary code unique to each of the 8 main genotypes (A–H) found in patients worldwide. Conclusions We present here the proof of concept of a new genotyping method specifically designed for complex and highly variable targets. Applied here to HBV, SEB Genotyping can be adapted to any other pathogen or disease carrying multiple known mutations. Using simple preparation steps, SEB Genotyping provides accurate results quickly and will enable physicians to choose the best adapted treatment for each of their patients.
