GNAS-COLD-MAMAPCR real time BM-004 is a research use only (RUO) assay that can detect R201H and R201C mutations on GNAS gene. The McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) is a potentially severe disorder hallmarked by fibrous bone dysplasia, café-au-lait skin spots, and endocrine hyperfunction. It is caused by postzygotic activating mutations at the R201 codon of the GNAS gene, leading to a state of somatic mosaicism.
We developed a novel real-time COLD-MAMA-PCR TaqMan-based method that can quantify low frequencies of GNAS mutations. A linear correlation between the true and the measured relative frequency of mutations (real-time COLD-MAMA-PCR-measured relative mutation frequency [RMF], defined as the proportion of sequence reads containing the mutation) was observed until 2.5%, indicating a reliable quantification with R201H and R201C (R2 = 0.984 and 0.987, respectively).
