We combined the amplification refractory mutation system
(ARMSTM) and fluorescence polarization (FP) to give a
homogeneous genomic DNA genotype analysis method. Oligonucleotide
probes labeled with the fluorescein dyes fluorescein isothiocyanate and
5-([4,6-dichlorotriazin-2-yl]amino)fluorescein and the rhodamine dye
6-carboxyrhodamine were included in amplification mixes and were
annealed to PCR products after amplification. Hybridization was
accompanied by an increase in the FP of the probe. We demonstrated
homogeneous genotyping by analyzing human DNA samples for
F508 mutation status of the cystic fibrosis
transmembrane conductance regulator gene. The genotypes determined with
the method described herein were in full agreement with those obtained
by the conventional application of ARMS. We also demonstrated the
simultaneous detection of two PCR products in a single reaction. The
assay method described is homogeneous and so obviates the necessity to
open reaction vessels after amplification. This therefore eliminates
PCR carryover contamination.
