This study concluded that allele-specific PCR (AS-PCR) is more reliable than tetra-primer ARMS-PCR for genotyping the SNP rs1998076 due to better stability and interpretability.

This review highlights the potential of integrating point-of-care testing with allele-specific amplification techniques like AS-PCR, AS-LAMP, and AS-RPA to improve the efficiency, accuracy, and affordability of genotyping single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with human diseases.

In this study, researchers found that massively parallel sequencing of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can improve information recovery from forensic samples, with successful full region amplification possible from as few as 2,000 mtDNA copies, albeit with variability in heteroplasmy among hair samples from the same donor.

This study identified three SPINK5 mutations, including two novel ones, in Israeli patients with Comèl-Netherton syndrome, suggesting recurring mutations that should inform future diagnostic strategies in Israel.

This study found that human hair keratin genes contain a few simple sequence repeats, with one repeat in the exon of KRT31 and additional repeats in introns, varying in length compared to their orthologues.

This study demonstrated the development of high-density protein microarrays allowing for antibody binding characterization and serum profiling from patients with autoimmune diseases, suggesting potential for diagnostic marker discovery.

This study observed that PCR-based genotyping for cre-loxP mice can lead to errors due to cre-mediated recombination in non-target tissues like tails, affecting the detection of lox alleles.

In this study, researchers found that single SNPs have a small genetic effect on phenotypes in Inner Mongolia cashmere goats, and constructing haplotypes from associated SNPs may uncover complex variations in cashmere traits, aiding genomics and breeding efforts.

This case report describes an 8 cm giant pilomatricoma on a 67-year-old man's scalp, revealing distinct transcriptional patterns related to hair follicle factors and keratin through spatial gene expression analysis.
