Abstract
Analysis of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) has become an increasingly important area of research, with numerous applications in medical genetics, population genetics, forensic science, and agricultural biotechnology. Large-scale SNP analyses require the development of methodologies that are economical, flexible, accurate and capable of automation. Primer extension in conjunction with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS) is currently emerging as a potential method for high-throughput SNP genotyping. We have evaluated a number of published primer extension methods and refined a simple and robust protocol to analyze human autosomal disease-causing mutations and population genetic markers on the Y-chromosome. Twelve different variant sites were examined, and homozygotes, heterozygotes and hemizygotes were accurately typed. A 100% concordance was observed between SNP genotypes obtained using the MALDI-TOFMS technique and alternative genotyping methods, such as restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) assays and denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC). Since multiple polymorphisms can be detected in single reactions, the method provides a cost-effective approach for SNP analysis. The protocol is also extremely flexible (able to accommodate new markers) and can be adapted to a number of platforms without the use of commercial kits.
