Multiplex amplification of all coding sequences within 10 cancer genes by Gene-Collector

Abstract: Herein we present Gene-Collector, a method for multiplex amplification of nucleic acids. The procedure has been employed to successfully amplify the coding sequence of 10 human cancer genes in one assay with uniform abundance of the final products. Amplification is initiated by a multiplex PCR in this case with 170 primer pairs. Each PCR product is then specifically circularized by ligation on a Collector probe capable of juxtapositioning only the perfectly matched cognate primer pairs. Any amplification artif… Show more

“…In this proof-of-concept study, a large number of individual PCR assays were done before pooling for sequencing. Alternately, one could incorporate the Gene-Collector method, which generates uniformly distributed multiplexed amplification products with less bias (23), to increase the efficiency of amplicon generation. Furthermore, careful optimization of the amplification protocols, designing PCR amplicons of consistent length, and addition of spiked controls should be considered in future studies.…”

“…Another potential approach to normalizing the distribution of amplified targets is to separate the pool of probes in one high-abundant and one low-abundant reaction, before PCR amplification. Furthermore, we recently developed an alternative sample preparation strategy, called ''gene-collector,'' which potentially generates a more uniformly distributed multiplexed amplification product compared with selector technology (24).…”

“…Recently, several new methods have been developed for the multiplexed selection, amplification, and sequencing of genomics subsets (Bashiardes et al 2005;Dahl et al 2005Dahl et al , 2007Albert et al 2007;Fredriksson et al 2007;Hodges et al 2007;Meuzelaar et al 2007;Okou et al 2007;Porreca et al 2007). Several of these methods achieve higher levels of multiplexing Dahl et al 2007;Hodges et al 2007;Okou et al 2007;Porreca et al 2007), but they do not perform as well in other areas, such as the precise definition of target boundaries Dahl et al 2007;Hodges et al 2007;Okou et al 2007), the reproducible capture of some target regions (Porreca et al 2007), or the fraction of reads matching target sequences Hodges et al 2007;Okou et al 2007).…”
