Validating Low Frequency Variants using TaqMan Assays

Low frequency variants for which commercial primers were available were validated with TaqMan Mutation Detection Assays (Thermo Fisher) (supplementary figure S1). Mutation detection was performed according to assay instructions. Briefly, FFPE tissue was micro-dissected from multiple regions of each tumor (supplementary figure S1A-C) under a dissection microscope and DNA was purified using the Maxwell DNA FFPE Kit (Promega). Samples were run in duplicate or triplicate per manufacturer’s instructions to determine the presence of or the frequency of the variant DNA, respectively. The qPCR reactions were run on Bio-Rad CFX96 Real-Time PCR and data was analyzed using the Mutation Detector™ software (Thermo Fisher, last revised April 2012). Variants that fell below our variant calling cutoffs for sequencing, but that were validated by qPCR were included in the data set. This included the KRAS variant for polyp PF24 and the removal of the CTNNB1 variant in PF11.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
