Abstract
The invention encompasses a semi-automatic and/or automatic computer-aided technique for designing comprehensive DNA diagnostic tests for mutations in disease genes through searching for optimized conditions for PCR amplification and for optimal melting behavior in denaturing gradient gels and for optimal distribution in two-dimensional electrophoresis display of the mutational target fragments.
