  • Publication number: 20220389488
    Abstract: Provided are methods and kits for detecting and quantifying a sequence difference relative to a target polynucleotide sequence, and methods for developing assays. Target polynucleotide sequences are examined to determine if any of the sequences vary by at least one nucleotide difference. Promiscuous probes that have on and off-target binding at different binding efficiencies at permissive temperature are used, so that differences in polynucleotide sequences are reliably detected and quantified in a single well with fewer types of labeled probes, including by polymerase chain reaction of any of a range of sequences where there is interest in detecting an at least one nucleotide difference relative. The target sequences may be a reference polynucleotide sequence indicative of a first state, such as “normal” and another sequence that varies by at least one polynucleotide indicative of a different second state, such as a mutation, disease condition, or predisposition thereto.
