METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR DETERMINING WHETHER A SUBJECT CARRIES A CYSTIC FIBROSIS TRANSMEMBRANE CONDUCTANCE REGULATOR (CFTR) GENE MUTATION

摘要

Methods are provided for determining whether a subject carries a CFTR gene mutation. In practicing the subject methods, an array comprising a plurality of CFTR gene mutation probes is contacted with a nucleic acid sample from the subject, and the presence of any resultant surface bound target nucleic acids is detected to determine whether the subject carries a CFTR gene mutation. In addition, reagents and kits thereof that find use in practicing the subject methods are provided.
