DNA with
a primer
pair that
spans an
intron
sequence
and
defines a
DNA
sequence
in genetic
linkage
with an
allele to
be
detected.
The
primer-
defined
DNA
sequence
contains a
sufficient
number of
intron
sequence
nucleotide
s to
characteri
ze the
allele.


Genomic
DNA is
amplified
to produce
an
amplified
DNA
sequence
characteris
tic of the
allele. The
amplified
DNA
sequence
is
analyzed
to detect
the
presence
of a
genetic
variation
in the
amplified
DNA
sequence
such as a
change in
the length
of the
sequence,


gain or
loss of a
restriction
site or
substitutio
n of a
nucleotide
. The
variation
is
characteris
tic of the
allele to
be
detected
and can be
used to
detect
remote
alleles.
