Rapid HLA typing by multiplex amplification refractory mutation system.

Rapid HLA typing by multiplex amplification refractory mutation system.

AIMS To detect HLA susceptibility and protective alleles associated with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) using a multiplex amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS). These include DR3 and DR4 alleles at the DRB1 locus, presence or absence of aspartic acid at position 57 (Asp-57) of the DQB1 locus, and presence or absence of arginine at position 52 (Arg-52) of the DQA1 locus. ...

Multiplex Tetra-Primer Amplification Refractory Mutation System Polymerase Chain Reaction to Genotype SNP8NRG221533 of Neuregulin-1 Gene

Schizophrenia is a severe neuropsychiatric disorder with symptoms such as hallucination, delusion and mental disorder. It is a complex disorder, in which genetic components play a crucial role in its pathogenesis. Among candidate genes for schizophrenia, Neuregulin 1 (NRG1) gene is the most important gene,  association of which with the illness has been confirmed in several studies. Single nucl...

The Quantitative Amplification Refractory Mutation System

The amplifi cation refractory mutation system (ARMS), which has also been described as allele-specifi c PCR (ASP) and PCR amplifi cation of specifi c alleles (PASA), is a PCR-based method of detecting single base mutations (Newton et al., 1989). ARMS has been applied successfully to the analysis of a wide range of polymorphisms, germline mutations and somatic mutations. The technique has the ab...
