One homozygous mutation was not detected by dHPLC; however, the p.Cys2137Tyr homozygote was distinguished from the wild-type by HRM technique. In the same way, one novel change in exon 5 (p.Arg187His) was found only by means of the HRM technique. In addition, dHPLC identified the mutation p.Trp1724Cys in one sample; however, HRM detected the mutation in two samples. Login to comment

In contrast, dHPLC depends on a specific temperature that requires optimization.19 It generally is accepted that routine dHPLC scanning does not detect homozygous sequence alterations, but the situation for melting analyses is less clear.20 In this study, a homozygous mutation (p.Cys2137Tyr) was detected by HRM.
