When using PCR-RFLP to detect a SNP ina promoter, is it obligatory to use SSCP & 32p labled dNTP?

Hey all, I am about to do a research the requires investigating a SNP in the promoter of the bradykinin 1 receptor B1R (G-699 to C) substitution. The paper I found uses SSCP and [32P] - alpha...

What is the difference between genotype and haplotype data in the ped format?

Hi everybody In the ped format for genotype, alleles of any SNP are represented by two columns (one for each allele, separated by a space). Is a column sufficient for the haplotype to...
