Deskripsi
Two versions of conformation sensitive gel electrophoresis, fluorescent (F-CSGE) and manual (M-CSGE) techniques, were compared for mutation analysis of the von Willebrand factor gene. 56 PCRs were used to amplify all 52 exons of the gene in seven type 1 von Willebrand disease cases, plus a healthy control. One hundred and ninety-two samples were analyzed on each F-CSGE gel, compared with 40 on M-CSGE. 125 amplicons revealed bandshifts using F-CSGE, but only 101 by M-CSGE. Five mutations were detected by both techniques. F-CSGE detected 45 different polymorphisms whereas M-CSGE detected only 39. F-CSGE is high-throughput and more sensitive than M-CSGE.
