Characterization of a novel melt curve by use of the Roche LightCycler HSV 1/2 analyte-specific reagent real-time PCR assay: frequencies of this novel (low) melt curve and commonly encountered (intermediate) melt curves.

ABSTRACT: We characterize a novel probe binding-site polymorphism detectable solely by melt curve analysis using the Roche LightCycler HSV 1/2 analyte-specific reagent real-time PCR assay. The frequencies of this novel (47°C) and previously described intermediate (60 to 62°C) melt curves were 0.016% and 4.9%, respectively.
