Primer-directed enzymatic amplification of DNA with a thermostable DNA polymerase.
A thermostable DNA polymerase was used in an in vitro DNA amplification procedure, the polymerase chain reaction. The enzyme, isolated from Thermus aquaticus, greatly simplifies the procedure and, by… Expand

Specific enzymatic amplification of DNA in vitro: the polymerase chain reaction.
The discovery of specific restriction endonucleases (Smith and Wilcox 1970) made possible the isolation of discrete molecular fragments of naturally occurring DNA for the first time. This capability… Expand

Genome-wide association study and meta-analysis find that over 40 loci affect risk of type 1 diabetes
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a common autoimmune disorder that arises from the action of multiple genetic and environmental risk factors. We report the findings of a genome-wide association study of T1D,… Expand

Generation of single-stranded DNA by the polymerase chain reaction and its application to direct sequencing of the HLA-DQA locus.
Single-copy sequences can be enzymatically amplified from genomic DNA by the polymerase chain reaction. By using unequal molar amounts of the two amplification primers, it is possible in a single… Expand

Risk of celiac disease autoimmunity and timing of gluten introduction in the diet of infants at increased risk of disease.
CONTEXT While gluten ingestion is responsible for the signs and symptoms of celiac disease, it is not known what factors are associated with initial appearance of the disease. OBJECTIVE To examine… Expand
