Abstrakt: Large numbers of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are being identified by several laboratories for the purpose of developing dense genetic maps. Single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis has been widely used as a method for detecting novel sequence variations in PCR products. Differences in migration of single-stranded DNA can be used not only to find mutations, but to genotype SNPs in large sample populations. Using PCR with fluorescent labeling and automated capillary electrophoresis SSCP (CE-SSCP), we have developed a panel of 15 functional candidate SNPs. With an automated single capillary instrument, relatively rapid and Iow cost CE-SSCP SNP genotyping using currently available technology is feasible for 135 000 genotypes per year. With parallel multiple array capillary electrophoresis, more genotypes per year may be attainable. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
