PCR Troubleshooting and Optimization

Chapter 10. Figure 1. Dual hybridization probe (HybProbe) technology for SNP genotyping. Two probes, each with one fluorophore are designed to hybridize next to each other on the target so that they are in resonance energy transfer. One probe is blocked at the 3'-end and hybridizes to invariant sequence (anchor probe) while the other hybridizes over the variable locus (sensor probe). After PCR, the solution is heated and fluorescence monitored. A melting curve for a heterozygote is shown, along with the corresponding negative derivative plot.
