Abstract
A patient developed disseminated adenovirus infection following bone marrow transplant. TaqMan real-time PCR showed reduced maximum fluorescence in the amplification curve from all plasma samples. Sequencing revealed three single nucleotide mismatches between the TaqMan probe and probe binding region. Real-time PCR with probe matching the isolate sequence showed normal amplification and a higher copy number result.
