The PGK-PCR clonality assay (PPCA)

Mol Biotechnol. 1996 Jun;5(3):275-80. doi: 10.1007/BF02900366.

Abstract

The PGK-PCR assay offers an accurate method for determination of clonal derivation of cells in females who are heterozygous for the PGK BstXI polymorphism. Techniques to screen for heterozygosity and determine clonality using polymerase chain reaction based techniques are provided.
