We have developed a method in which partially single-stranded (ss) DNA molecules containing a defined region of duplex RNA:DNA are electrophoretically separated in agarose gels. The partial hybrids are formed by solution hybridization with a uniform length RNA probe complementary to part of the DNA sequence of interest. Following hybridization, the RNA/DNA mixture is fractionated by agarose gel electrophoresis at high temperature to minimize intrastrand base pairing which causes mobility heterogeneity. Not requiring the steps of DNA transfer from the gel to a solid support and subsequent probing, pre-electrophoretic hybridization allows the direct identification of single-copy fragments. Conditions for the detection of single-copy genes in human DNA digested with specific restriction endonucleases were developed and applied to the diagnosis of sickle-cell disease. This method should be applicable for the analysis of DNAs of high complexity where the presence of DNA polymorphisms and interspersed repeated DNA sequences often make impossible the creation of complete RNA:DNA hybrids.
