(a) Position of the 19 most frequent mutations within the Dutch population in the beta-globin gene and the position of the PCR primers. Introns in the beta-globin gene are called intervening sequences (IVS). The following primers were used: forward betaFF 5'-TGAAGTCCAACTCCTAAGCCA, reverse betaER 5'-AAACGATCCTGAGACTTCCA, forward betaCF 5'-GTGTACACATATTGACCAAATC and reverse betaQ 5'-CCAAGGTTTGAACTAGCTCTTCA. (b) Secondary structure of the IVS2-1 primer. The first 20 5'-nucleotides represent the tag, and the last 23 nucleotides are mutation specific. Five consecutive bases at the 3' terminus are paired. The folded primer incorporates a labeled ddATP in the SBE reaction. The arrows indicate the site of the base substitution applied to prevent self-annealing of the 3' terminus.
