ABSTRACT
Objective To identify the point mutation of Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase(SOD1) gene in an amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS) family and observe the value of denaturing high performance liquid chromatography(DHPLC). Methods DHPLC and DNA sequencing were used to examine SOD1 gene of the ALS family which had not been found mutation by PCR-SSCP. Results DHPLC tests proved double peaks in one member(Ⅲ_1), Which indicated the possibility of mutation in SOD1 exon 4. DNA sequencing revealed that there was a heterozygote,with mutation of GAA to GGA in exon 4, and with a substitution of glutacid by glycine. Conclusion As compared with PCR-SSCP, DHPLC technique has proved to be a rapid and reliable method for screening mutation site in large samples.
