Abstract

To enable the rapid and sensitive screening of the BRAF V600E mutation in clinical samples, a novel method combining restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis with the popular amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS) TaqMan quantitative (qPCR) genotyping method in a single reaction tube was developed. A total of 2 primer pairs were designed to enrich for and genotype the BRAF mutational hotspot (RFLP primers and ARMS primers) and a restriction enzyme was used to remove the wild‑type alleles. The analysis revealed that this method detected mutant alleles in mixed samples containing >0.1% mutant sequences. In a survey of 53 melanoma samples, this method detected 21 mutation‑positive samples. This novel RFLP‑ARMS TaqMan qPCR protocol may prove useful for detecting mutations in clinical samples containing only a small proportion of mutant alleles.
