Detection of BRAF V600E mutation by pyrosequencing

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Introduction: Detection of the V600E hotspot mutation in BRAF oncogene is extremely useful for the screening of hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (Lynch's syndrome) and for the prediction of sensitivity to MEK inhibitors. Here we describe a method for detecting this mutation based upon pyrosequencing technology.
