Multiplex Amplification of Nucleic acids
• Molecular Inversion Probes was one of the most successful technologies to simultaneously analyze over 20,000 SNPs in a multiplex fashion
• Human genome is over 3 billion base pairs with over 250,000 exons
• Genotyping of known polymorphisms is one way of reducing the complexity of the problem of understanding the variations between genomes – but resequencing would be the ideal method
• Currently there exist several resequencing technologies that require selective amplification of target DNA
• A logical extension of the MIP technology would be to use them for Multiplex PCR
Molecular Inversion Probes
Very specific. High multiplexing capacity from unimolecular action and tag. High sensitivity due to amplification.

PADLOCK PROBESEnzymatic probe inversion• Mixture is heated to denaturate, and slowly cooled to let annealing take place• Free unlabeled dNTPs are added the gap is filled through polymerase activity• Ligase ligates the gap and a circular probe is formed.1) Free DNA is degraded by exonuclease activity2)To release probes, uracil-DNA-glycosylate is added.3) PCR amplification

Alternative Splicing• Alternative splicing is a major source of proteome
complexity
• As many as 74% of multi-exon human genes may have alternative splice forms
• Alternative splicing has been shown to affect numerous protein characteristics including binding properties, intracellular localization, enzymatic activity, stability, and post-translational modifications, and to create dominant negative isoforms
• Splice site selection is regulated during development and in a tissue-specific manner
• Errors in the regulation of splice site selection have been implicated in a wide set of human diseases, especially cancer
• Spliceosomal errors are a common characteristic of cancer cells, and splicing errors have been found in genes that affect both tumor progression and susceptibility
Splicing widespread. Shown to affect every protein characteristic you can think of. May be as important as gene expression in determining cell fate. 15% of disease-associated point mutations cause splicing defects.
