Rapid detection of FMO3 single nucleotide polymorphisms using a pyrosequencing method.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The present study aimed to develop a reliable pyrosequencing method to detect four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the flavin‑containing monooxygenase 3 (FMO3) gene and to compare the ethnic differences in their allelic frequencies. The pyrosequencing method was used to detect four FMO3 SNPs, namely, c.855C>T (N285N, rs909530), c.441C>T (S147S, rs1800822), c.923A>G (E308G, rs2266780) and c.472G>A (E158K, rs2266782). The allelic frequencies of these SNPs in 122 unrelated Korean subjects were as follows: i) 44.7% for c.855C>T; ii) 23.4% for c.441C>T; iii) 23.0% for c.923A>G; and iv) 27.1% for c.472G>A. Linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis revealed that the SNPs c.923A>G and c.472G>A exhibited a strong LD (D'=0.8289, r2=0.5332). In conclusion, the pyrosequencing method developed in this study was successfully applied to detect the c.855C>T, c.441C>T, c.923A>G and c.472G>A SNPs of FMO3.
