1
High resolution melting
2
or HRM is a very sensitive method to detect sequence variation
3
in different samples up to a resolution of a single base pair without the need of sequencing.
4
Here you see a wild type of DNA or a PCR product.
5
After mutation you may get a homozygous mutant in
6
which both the alleles are mutated or a heterozygous mutant in which a single allele is mutated.
7
Now you want to check if mutation is there or not.
8
HRM is based upon the principle of DNA dissociation with increase in temperature followed by detection by a fluorescent dye.
9
The DNA denituration is based on the GC content.
10
Higher the GC content, stronger will be the DNA bonds and higher will be the melting temperature to dissociate the two strands.
11
In HRM, the detection is assisted by specific binding of a saturating fluorescent dye to the double-stranded DNA
12
and measuring its fluorescence in real time on increasing the temperature gradually.
13
For HRM, you need to PCR amplify your target gene locus to obtain a specific amplicon.
14
Smaller the size of amplicon, better the results will be.
15
Then you add a saturating fluorescent dye
16
that binds to the dna only in the double stranded form
17
then you proceed for hrm analysis in a real time machine here you gradually increase the temperature
18
and fluorescence is measured simultaneously the plot shows fluorescence in the y-axis and temperature on the x-axis
19
3 different curves are obtained for wild, homozygous and heterozygous mutant.
20
Here you see as homozygous mutant had a GC mutation as seen in the previous slide its TM is higher.
21
So the curve shifts towards the right.
22
Heterozygous mutant on the other hand have a mutation in only one strand.
23
So it has a base mismatch and hence the TM is reduced and the curve shifts towards the left.
24
method is so sensitive that it detects the variation in the melting temperature up to 0.2 degree Celsius.
25
HRM being a simple, economic, rapid and precise method of DNA variant detection, it can be used for mutant identification,
26
SNP genotyping, DNA methylation by bisulfide sequencing, DNA fingerprinting and so on.

如何用这段视频练习
- 先完整听一遍视频,不要开口,记下不认识的单词。
- 用正常速度逐句跟读,每句重复到你的节奏与说话人一致为止。
- 录下自己的声音并与原声对比,特别注意 mutant, strand, mutation 这类单词。
什么是跟读法?
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
