Problems solved by technology

The positional cloning strategy based on linkage analysis is a classic method to identify the causative genes of single-gene genetic diseases, but it also faces some difficulties: ① usually requires multi-generation families, and it is difficult to analyze small families and sporadic cases
②Sometimes multi-generational families cannot locate the pathogenic locus
③ It is difficult to screen out the correct disease-causing gene in the linkage region

Abstract

The invention discloses an application of mutated gene PRPF4 in the preparation of a hereditary retinal disease diagnosis reagent. A method for screening HRDs virulence gene comprises the following steps: 1, establishing an HRDs genetic resource library; 2, designing and synthesizing the gene chip hybridization probe of the HRDs virulence gene, and integrating the gene chip hybridization probe to a gene chip; 3, capturing a target area by using the made gene chip, and carrying out deep sequencing; 4, carrying out bioinformatics analysis on sequenced data, and screening candidate gene chip virulence gene; and 5, carrying out function predication on new found shear gene mutation sites. In the invention, the high-efficiency HRDs target gene capturing technology is established, the deep sequencing is adopted to confirm the HRDs chip capturing efficiency, and an efficient and trusted bioinformation analysis model is established.

Description

[0001] Case Description [0002] This application is a divisional application of a Chinese invention patent application filed on January 7, 2013 with the application number 2013100052529, titled a method for screening pathogenic mutations in HRDs and related gene chip hybridization probe design methods. technical field [0003] The invention belongs to the field of biomedicine and relates to the application of mutated gene PRPF4 in the preparation of diagnostic reagents for hereditary retinal diseases. Background technique [0004] Hereditary retinal diseases (HRDs) are a group of progressive retinal degenerative diseases caused by genetic defects, and are common and serious hereditary blinding diseases in clinical practice. As the number one blindness disease among working-age people worldwide, the incidence of HRDs is about 1 / 3000 in Europe and the United States, and as high as 1 / 1000 in my country. my country is a country with a large number of HRDs genetic resources, bu...
