Abstract
It is intended to provide a novel convenient approach for DNA quantitative analysis that overcomes the disadvantages of conventional formulations. A standard DNA sample is prepared by introducing a single-base substitution into target DNA, and a predetermined amount thereof is mixed with a target DNA sample. The target and standard DNAs are amplified using the same primers designed to amplify a region comprising the single-base substitution site. To a hybridization product of a probe capable of binding to a site immediately before the single-base substitution site, ddATP, ddGTP, ddCTP, and ddTTP are sequentially added one by one to perform a complementary strand synthesis reaction. Luciferase reaction-induced luminescence derived from the formed pyrophosphoric acid is detected. The target DNA is quantitated from the amount of the detected luminescence and the amount of the added standard DNA sample.
