Preparation of genomic DNA from clinical samples is a bottleneck in
genotyping and DNA sequencing analysis and is frequently limited by the
amount of specimen available. We use Multiple Displacement
Amplification (MDA) to amplify the whole genome 10,000-fold directly
from small amounts of whole blood, dried blood, buccal cells, cultured
cells, and buffy coats specimens, generating large amounts of DNA for
genetic testing. Genomic DNA was evenly amplified with complete
coverage and consistent representation of all genes. All 47 loci
analyzed from 44 individuals were represented in the amplified DNA at
between 0.5- and 3.0-fold of the copy number in the starting genomic
DNA template. A high-fidelity DNA polymerase ensures accurate
representation of the DNA sequence. The amplified DNA was
indistinguishable from the original genomic DNA template in 5 SNP and
10 microsatellite DNA assays on three different clinical sample types
for 20 individuals. Amplification of genomic DNA directly from cells is
highly reproducible, eliminates the need for DNA template purification,
and allows genetic testing from small clinical samples. The low
amplification bias of MDA represents a dramatic technical improvement
in the ability to amplify a whole genome compared with older, PCR-based
methods.
