| 简介 |
The invention pertains to an assay that is capable of detecting a mutant polynucleotide in a plurality of polynucleotides. In one embodiment, the assay of the invention is capable of detecting one copy of a mutant polynucleotide in about 50, 000 to about 100, 000 copies of polynucleotides. The assay of the invention can be used to identify a mutant viral quasispecies or a mutant mRNA encoding an oncogenic protein from a tumor sample. The assay of the invention involves producing the single stranded complements of each of a plurality of polynucleotides containing the target sequence, wherein each of the single stranded complements contain a unique tag sequence and amplifying the single stranded complements by PCR using several sets of primers designed to introduce the sequences appropriate for a paired-end sequencing analysis of the amplified polynucleotides. The invention also pertains to kits for carrying out the assays of the invention. |
