title: An oligoarray for the detection of human papillomavirus type 16 variants.
abstract: On the basis of human papillomavirus (HPV) E6 gene mutations, there are more than five variants of HPV 16. We applied a sensitive and specific stacking hybridization assay using an oligoarray for the detection of Asian-American (AA) and European (E) (E350G) HPV 16 variants. A simple glass slide was coated with capture probes consisting of short oligonucleotide DNA sequences (7-9 mers) specific for AA and E variants. Two different regions of the E6 HPV 16 gene were amplified with a set of two primers, which were used as target DNA. These targets were preannealed with auxiliary labeled oligonucleotides and hybridized to the oligoarray in the presence of specific and complementary capture probes. Our designed array based on shorter capture probes successfully discriminated between HPV 16 AA and E variants. The present DNA oligoarray system could be useful as a reliable technique for HPV 16 detection and does not require specialized equipment; nevertheless, further intra- and interlaboratory studies are needed.
