  • Publication number: 20200291453
    Abstract: The invention provides compositions and methods for accurately and specifically amplifying sequences to allow for accurate and specific detection of mutations, such as in disease-associated genes and alleles, thus distinguishing true nucleotide variants over random nucleotide sequencing errors. In one embodiment, this is accomplished, prior to sequencing, by using a combination of director and driver in a combination of two PCR reactions. Thus, in one embodiment, this is accomplished by amplifying a nucleotide sequence of interest to introduce a director that creates a specific target for a subsequent amplification in which a driver that specifically hybridizes to the director drives the specificity of further amplification. The amplification produces an amplicon of a sense or antisense strand of a double-stranded nucleotide sequence of interest.
