ABSTRACT
A method for the real-time polymerase chain reaction ( PCR ) coupled with high specific invader assay to detect single nucleotide polymorphism ( SNP) was established. To reduce the background signal, the amount of flap endonuclease 1 ( FEN1 enzyme ) and wild-type detection probe was optimized. Under the optimum conditions including 0. 05 μmo/L invasive oligonucleotide probe, 0. 125 μmol/L wild-type detection probe, 0. 5 μmol/L mutation detection probe, 0. 25 μmol/L each fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) probe and 1. 5 U FEN1, the background signal of wild-type sample and mutation sample was dramatically decreased and the background interference to the detecting results was thus eliminated. A total of 21 cases of aldehyde dehydrogenase-2*2 ( ALDH2*2 ) , 19 cases of cytochrome p450 2 C19*2 ( CYP2 C19*2 ) and 19 cases of CYP2C19*3 were analyzed with the established method, and the genotypes of ALDH2*2 were 10 cases of GG homozygote, 8 cases of GA heterozygote and 3 cases of AA homozygote; the genotypes of CYP2C19*2 were 9 cases of GG homozygote, 8 cases of GA heterozygote and 2 cases of AA homozygote;and the genotypes of CYP2C19*3 were 18 cases of GG homozygote and 1 case of GA heterozygote. These results were consistent with those by pyrosequencing. The established method was specific, simple, short time-consuming and low cost, and could be used for the detection of SNP genotyping with non-polluting in single closed tube.
