P. Merel et al., A MACINTOSH(R) PROGRAM FOR RESULT ANALYSIS IN HLA GENOTYPING BY THE MODIFIED PCR-RFLP METHOD, BioTechniques, 15(6), 1993, pp. 1072-1075
We describe in this report a computer program for easy interpretation
of polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism
(PCR-RFLP) patterns generated during HLA Class II typing by the modifi
ed PCR-RFLP method. HLA-DQA1, HLA-DQB1, HLA-DRB1 and HLA-DPB1 typing r
esult analysis are thus greatly simplified. The program also allows vi
deo capture and image storage, which are becoming a new standard in mo
lecular biology laboratories.
