ABSTRACT:
A method of detecting a gene and quantifying its copy number using a PCR based assay is described. A set (i.e. three primers) of PCR primers is used in a single reaction wherein the first primer is specific for a first gene and the second primer is specific for a second gene which second gene is closely related to the first gene, while the third primer is common to both the first and second genes. From the results obtained the presence or absence of the second gene can be determined, as well as, its copy number.
