quantitative polymerase chain reaction
trisomy 21 - Opis:
- Pre- and postnatal diagnosis of chromosomal aberrations is generally based on conventional cytogenetic analysis. In this paper, we have devised a quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Q-PCR) method to determine gene dose effects and applied it in cases of regular trisomy 21 as a model. The method is based on quantitative assessment of PCR products after using primers amplifying DNA fragments located in the pericentromeric, heterochromatic, euchromatic and telomeric regions of chromosome 21. A gene dose effect on the amount of PCR product in cases of trisomy 21 was confirmed. Moreover, a correlation between the amount of the PCR product of the examined sequences and their location in the chromosome was observed. The obtained results suggest that the Q-PCR technique can be applied in the diagnosis of aneuploidies.
