Tuning single nucleotide discrimination in polymerase chain reactions (PCRs): Synthesis of primer probes bearing polar 4′-C-modifications and their application in allele-specific PCR

Article abstract of DOI:10.1002/chem.200401114

There are many methods available for the detection of nucleotide variations in genetic material. Most of these methods are applied after amplification of the target genome sequence by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Many efforts are currently underwa
