Abstract
A method and kit for detecting a genetic variant associated with a disease or disorder, including incompatibility with a pharmaceutical. The method and kit using a first nano-particle coupled to at least one morpholino nucleic acid probe comprising a target complimentary region base sequence that is a perfect match to a genetic variant sequence.
Claims14
A detection kit for performing a method of detecting a genetic variant associated with a disease or disorder, including incompatibility with a pharmaceutical,
- wherein the kit comprises a nano-particle coupled to at least one first morpholino nucleic acid probe comprising a target complimentary region comprising a base sequence that is a perfect match to the genetic variant sequence associated with the disease or disorder, including incompatibility with the pharmaceutical,
- wherein the genetic variant is associated with a SNP of the gene encoding dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD), said SNP resulting in incompatibility with the pharmaceutical fluorouracil;
- or the genetic variant is associated with a SNP of the gene encoding CYP2C19 enzyme, said SNP resulting in incompatibility of the pharmaceutical clopidogrel;
- or the genetic variant is associated with the allelic variation of the gene encoding human leukocyte antigen, said allelic variant resulting in incompatibility of the pharmaceutical carbamazepine.
