RESUMO
Single nucleotide substitutions and unique insertions/deletions are the most common form of DNA sequence variation and disease-causing mutation in the human genome. Because of the biological and medical importance of these variations, a wide array of methods have been developed for their typing. We have applied an approach that combines the amplification of polymorphic regions by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with a system for typing diallelic variants using an oligonucleotide ligation assay (OLA). In this report, we describe a significant advance in this technology that permits the typing of two alleles in a single microtiter well. By marking each of the allele-specific primers with a unique hapten, i.e. digoxigenin and fluorescein, each OLA reaction can be detected by using hapten specific antibodies that are labeled with different enzyme reporters, alkaline phosphatase or horseradish peroxidase. This system permits the detection of the two alleles using a high throughput format that leads to the production of two different colors. We demonstrate the specificity, sensitivity and ease of data interpretation with this system. Furthermore, we show that multiplex PCR/OLA not only increases the throughput of DNA typing but also increases its accuracy in typing diallelic sequence variations using an approach that can be broadly applied for human genome analysis (in evaluating genotype/phenotype links), in typing infectious agents and in forensic analysis.
