ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a gene detecting method for determining mutation of a specific base or presence/absence of a specific base in a target gene. There are provided a the target gene sample and a control gene sample having a base sequence which is wild-type or standard-type with respect to the target gene. The method comprises steps of (i) independently subjecting the target gene sample and the control gene sample to a PCR reaction for amplification, using primers having an RNA polymerase promoter sequence at the 5′-end thereof, (ii) independently subjecting the double-stranded DNAs produced by said PCR reaction from the target gene sample and from the control gene sample, to an in vitro transcription reaction to form a single-stranded RNA, (iii) independently hybridizing the single-stranded RNAs with a fluorescence-labeled probe composed of a single-stranded DNA having a base sequence complementary to at least part of the base sequence of the control gene and being combined with a fluorescent dye, to form an RNA/DNA hybrid, and then (iv) comparing the fluorescence intensity of the RNA/DNA hybrid derived from the target gene sample with that of the RNA/DNA hybrid derived from the control gene sample.
