Orotic Acidurias
Primers were designed to amplify by PCR of all 9 HPRT gene exons and flanking
intronic sequences, on the basis of the known genomic sequence.
Sequenced on the sense and antisense strands utilizing the sequencing Kit.
The presence of mutations found in affected individuals was also checked in possible
healthy carriers.
3) Selective-Medium Test For HPRT
Mutant cells
3 out of 96 wells in a plate are loaded with 200ml of medium with added 6-
thioguanine and 2000 cells per well.
After 3 days of culture, cells that have multiplied are counted and an index
representing the frequency of mutation is calculated (MF).
