    Notes: Capillary electrophoresis DNA sequencing has been accomplished by using four different energy transfer primers and three fluorescence detection channels. Methods have also been developed to deconvolve the three-color data into the four base concentrations. The nonnegative least squares and model selection method resulted in the best accuracy. The three-color data were compared to sequencing data obtained using four detection channels and four energy transfer primers. The average accuracy rates obtained over three 500 base M13mp18 runs using three-color coding were 96% including 18 uncallable compressions and 99.6% if these compressions are excluded. The average accuracy rate obtained using four-color coding was 96.3% including 18 uncallable compressions and 99.9% if these compressions are excluded. Although it is unlikely that three-color schemes will replace four-color sequencing, these methods have exposed basic concepts that will be useful in the development of higher-order multiplex coding methods for DNA analysis.

    Notes: The design, construction and operation of a four-color capillary array electrophoresis scanner are presented. The use of sensitive energy transfer primers facilitates four-color detection of the DNA sequencing fragments following excitation at a single laser wavelength (488 nm). This scanner collects fluorescence data from up to 25 capillaries in parallel. The resulting four-color image files are automatically reduced to four-color line plots, and a base-calling program (Sax) is used to call the sequence. The performance of this system for DNA sequencing is demonstrated by examining twelve different motifs of the hypervariable region I of human mitochondrial (mt) DNA obtained from a Sierra Leone population.

    Notes: The development of sensitive, rapid, and accurate methods and apparatus for high-throughput short tandem repeat (STR) analysis will be critical for the use of microsatellite alteration in cancer screening. Here we show that STR-based bladder cancer diagnosis can be performed using capillary array electrophoresis and two-color labeling with energy-transfer (ET) fluorescent primers. Rapid (≤35 min) separations are achieved on capillary arrays using replaceable separation matrices and the allelic ratios are quantitatively determined with a precision of ± 10%. With this precision, a variation of 20% was considered diagnostically significant. These methods provide a significant improvement in the speed, ease, and precision of STR analyses compared to slab gel electrophoresis.
