Abstract

The existing diversity of the methods for detecting single nucleotide polymorphisms is so great that may perplex an unsophisticated researcher who chooses the appropriate molecular genetic toolkit. In this work, we tried to systematize and briefly describe the state-of-the-art methods for detecting oligonucleotide polymorphisms that are based on allele-specific PCR and hybridization with oligonucleotide probe as well as to characterize the methods considered with respect to their accuracy, cost, and simplicity.
