如果大家在用TaqMan做SNP genotyping,应该知道试剂有多贵。有兴趣可以看看这篇文章,一种新的SNP genotyping方法。简单而实用。

Despite many recent advances in high-throughput single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping technologies, there is still a great need for inexpensive and flexible methods with a reasonable throughput. Here we report substantial modifications and improvements to an existing homogenous allele-specific PCR-based SNP genotyping method, making it an attractive new option for researchers engaging in candidate gene studies or following up on genome-wide scans. In this advanced version of the melting temperature (Tm)-shift SNP genotyping method, we attach two GC-rich tails of different lengths to allele-specific PCR primers, such that SNP alleles in genomic DNA samples can be discriminated by the Tms of the PCR products. We have validated 306 SNP assays using this method and achieved a success rate in assay development of greater than 83% under uniform PCR conditions. We have developed a standalone software application to automatically assign genotypes directly from melting curve data. To demonstrate the accuracy of this method, we typed 592 individuals for 6 SNPs and showed a high call rate (>98%) and high accuracy (>99.9%). With this method, 6-10,000 samples can be genotyped per day using a single 384-well real-time thermal cycler with 2-4 standard 384-well PCR instruments.
