Abstract: The present invention refers to a method for detecting a point mutations of a nucleotide sequence by an improvement of the LAMP (loop amplification mediated polymerization) amplification method, as well as to a set of primers and kit therefor. As a non limitative embodiment, the invention refers to the G1849T mutation of the JAK2 gene.

Abstract: The invention provides an amplification system for the simultaneous detection of mutant alleles, and identification of the specific mutated sequence. A sample is enriched and simultaneously genotyped by the presence of peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) probes in an homogeneous single tube amplification reaction, by detecting the cleavage of a fluorophore quencher from the 5?-end of PCR products and, concurrently, selecting DNA that includes specific mutations relative to wild type, by employing a thermostable endonuclease that will only cleave an amplicon formed on a mutation bearing template strand. Oligonucleotides and kits for conducting the amplification system are also provided.
