BACKGROUND To achieve simple and rapid detection of codon 12 mutations of the c-Ki-ras2 gene, we developed a nonradioisotopic single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis using silver stain. METHODS After a conventional polymerase chain reaction, amplified DNA fragments were mixed with formamide, heated and subjected to electrophoresis for 1.5 hours using minigels of polyacrylamide. The gels were then silver stained and single-strand DNA fragments were visualized directly. RESULTS Electrophoresis and subsequent silver staining were completed within 2.5 hours. Plasmids carrying various codon 12 mutations of the c-Ki-ras2 gene were used as controls of Nonradioisotopic single-strand confirmation polymorphism analysis, and all six mutations were successfully separated from the normal allele in a single electrophoretic run. In the analysis of tumor cell lines and tumor samples, the results were identical with those of conventional dot blot hybridization using 32P-labeled oligonucleotide probes. Of 10 colorectal carcinoma tissues examined, 4 tumors were shown to carry codon 12 mutations of the c-Ki-ras2 gene. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that this novel technique is a rapid, simple and useful method that may replace conventional methods.

D010190 Pancreatic Neoplasms Tumors or cancer of the PANCREAS. Depending on the types of ISLET CELLS present in the tumors, various hormones can be secreted: GLUCAGON from PANCREATIC ALPHA CELLS; INSULIN from PANCREATIC BETA CELLS; and SOMATOSTATIN from the SOMATOSTATIN-SECRETING CELLS. Most are malignant except the insulin-producing tumors (INSULINOMA).

D003062 Codon A set of three nucleotides in a protein coding sequence that specifies individual amino acids or a termination signal (CODON, TERMINATOR). Most codons are universal, but some organisms do not produce the transfer RNAs (RNA, TRANSFER) complementary to all codons. These codons are referred to as unassigned codons (CODONS, NONSENSE).
