ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a method for identifying single base pair mismatches in nucleic acids using mismatch endonucleases and a set of labeled oligonucleotide probes which hybridize to mismatch sequences in the target nucleic acid such that a detectable enzyme-nucleic acid-probe complex forms or labeled cleaved fragments form when a base pair mismatch is present.
