Copy number analysis of complement C4A, C4B and C4A silencing mutation by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction.
Low protein levels and copy number variation (CNV) of the fourth component of human complement (C4A and C4B) have been associated with various diseases. High-throughput methods for analysing C4 CNV are available, but they commonly do not detect the most common C4A mutation, a silencing CT insertion...
