Fig. 1. А. Melting curves for different genotypes recorded during F508del (rs113993960) detection and an example of a combination of F508del and I506T (rs397508224) in the genotype. Fluorescence from FAM/НEX channels indicates the melting of probes complementary to a non-mutant or mutant gene region, respectively. The melting dynamics is recorded in the range from 25 °С to 75 °С and varies for different genotypes. 1 — mutation is absent; 2 — homozygous mutation; 3 — heterozygous mutation; 4 — a combination of F508del and I506T (the peak of the melting curves deviates from the norm) B. The sequencing chromatogram of a DNA fragment with a combination of F508del and I506T
