In this article we will discuss about the mutation detection in the Tuberous Sclerosis Genes TSC1 and TSC2 by DHPLC. Overview of Tuberous Sclerosis (TSC): TSC is a relatively variable clinical syndrome, in which several pathologic manifestations are highly specific for the disease. The cardinal feature is the cortical tuber, which is a distinctive form of brain hamartia. Hamartias and [...]
In this article we will discuss about the novel DHPLC based strategy for identification and characterisation of (BI)-Clonal T-Cell receptor targets for the detection of minimal residual disease in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Introduction: Clonal antigen receptor rearrangements are widely used as patient-specific markers for detection of minimal residual disease (MRD) in acute lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). Since ALL blasts are [...]
In this article we will discuss about SIRPH - A Rapid, Quantitative SNuPE-IP RP HPLC Method for Simultaneous Methylation Analysis at Multiple CpG Sites. Introduction: Bisulfite Based DNA Methylation Analysis: The most widely used protocols for detailed DNA methylation analyses are based on the use of bisulfite converted genomic DNA. This methodology was introduced by M. Frommer in the early [...]
