Determining the effectiveness of High Resolution Melting analysis for SNP genotyping and mutation scanning at the TP53 locus

Abstract: Background: Together single nucleotide substitutions and small insertion/deletion variants are the most common form of sequence variation in the human gene pool.

“…It is a closed technique so very less chances of contamination and also it is non-destructive so the same sample can be used to analyse further. The development of new fluorescent dye makes this method more attractive and target oriented for mutation scanning [23][24][25].…”

“…Additionally, it could be affected by the presence of many melting domains. [36][37][38] However, several strategies can be used to achieve better resolution: genotyping using small amplicons, unlabelled probes, snapback primers, internal temperature calibrators and/or mixing patient samples with the reference control genotype. [39][40][41][42][43][44] We used internal calibrators and DNA mixing to improve the resolution of individual genotypes for four amplicons of the COX genes.…”

“…HRM furthermore offers significant savings in cost and turnaround time, and is an attractive choice for p53 mutation scanning, especially in high-throughput environments. Sonia et al (16) undertook mutation screening of the entire p53 locus by HRM and direct sequencing using a set of 47 samples, and found the sensitivity and specificity of HRM for sequence variant detection to be 1.0 and 0.83. These results suggest that HRM provides sensitive assays for the detection of new sequence variants and the genotyping of known polymorphisms.…”

“…Certain studies have validated the use of HRM as a method for scanning somatic mutations in p53. It is sensitive, rapid and cost effective, and markedly reduces the amount of sequencing required in the mutational study of p53, and thereby the cost of these studies (16)(17)(18)(19).…”
