ABSTRACT:
A method for detecting and localizing single base substitutions in RNA or DNA that involves RNAase A cleavage of single base mismatches in RNA:RNA or RNA:DNA heteroduplexes. A RNA probe complementary to wild type DNA is annealed to the test DNA containing a single base substitution. Many of the possible single base mismatches can be cleaved by RNAase A. The location of the single base substitution can be determined by analyzing the sizes of the RNA cleavage products.
