Title:
IMPROVEMENTS IN INDUCED HETERODUPLEX GENERATORS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2006038037
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Heteroduplex band resolution is found to be improved by modifying the induced heteroduplex generator (IHG) molecule such that the identifier is spaced apart from the nucleotide position immediately adjacent to the site of the polymorphism which is to be genotyped. Unexpectedly, it is found that, when such modified IHG molecules are used, the resolution of the induced heteroduplexes is significantly improved.
