Using MLPA method for determining unbalanced changes in genome
KŘÍHOVÁ, Miroslava
Unbalanced chromosomal structural changes are connected with the presence of supernumerary particular part of chromosome, or the chromosome is absenting. MLPA is a method based on PCR principal, which amplifies MLPA probes, not the target sequences. MLPA probes hybridize to target sequences and then ligate them. Only one pair of primers is used. In the theoretical part the MLPA method is presented. Additionally, other diagnostics method of clinical genetic are mentioned (for example PCR, FISH, Array CGH). Diseases caused by unbalanced chromosomal structural changes are disscused too. Mental retardation and BRCA 1, 2 mutation were the main topic. The experimental part took place in Molecular Biology and Genetics Laboratory in the hospital in České Budějovice. I did my experiments under professional care of Mgr. Ondřej Scheinost and his colleagues. The aim of using MLPA method was to diagnose BRCA 1, 2 gene, microdeletion syndroms or subtelomeric deletions. All procedures were done according to standards. The final part of my thesis is concerned on the results interpretation and their comparation with other methods. I also thought over different approach of statistical analysis in MLPA.
