Improving the identification of mody mutations by using mlpa technique in the molecular diagnostics routine
2015
Background Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) represents about 3-5% of cases of diabetes mellitus (DM). Searching for mutations can be performed either by Sanger sequencing or Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification (MLPA) technique. MLPA is a powerful molecular tool that identifies large genetic rearrangements such as deletions and insertions, even though these kinds of mutations seem to be rare in the majority of MODY subtypes.
