Determination of TPMT mutation status, allele *1, *2, *3A, *3B, *3C (mutations c.238G>C, c.460G>A and c.719A>G)

TPMT gene testing is performed by PCR and reverse hybridization strip assay to detect *1, *2, *3A, *3B, *3C alleles (c.238G>C, c.460G>A and c.719A>G mutations), which are responsible for the reduced activity of this enzyme catalyzing components of thiopurine drugs used in cancer therapy.
