Patients with established diagnosis of MutYH-associated polyposis with monoallelic and biallelic mutations in the MutYH-gene

Number of polyps from 4+

Patients who did not have colon polyps

Amplification of the examined fragments of the MutYH gene was conducted using the PCR machine TP4-PCR-01-Tertsik (DNA-Technology, Russia) containing 25 μL of the reaction mixture: 0.1-1.0 μg genomic DNA; 0.25 μM of each original oligoprimer; 200 μM of each nucleosidetriphosphate; 1 U Taq polymerase; PCR buffer (500 mM Tris, 500 mM KCl, pH 8.74); 2.5 μL MgCl2 (25 mM)); deionized water; 20-30 μL of mineral oil. For MutYH gene analysis (Transcript ENST00000257430) Primer3 software (http:// frodo.wi.mit.edu/primer3/input.htm) was selected and 16 primer pairs. The variants of the primary structure in the obtained fragments were revealed using SSCP. DNA fragments containing electrophoretically identified variants were sequenced.
