Zusammenfassung:	Provided herein are methods for detecting mutations in nucleic acid, and compositions and kits for performing such methods. In particular, nucleic acid amplification and fluorescence detection methods are provided to detect mutations and assess the mutational load. The methods are based on a set of adjacently binding probes wherein one probe is labelled with a quencher and the other is a self-indicating probe labelled with fluorophore and quencher. The binding of the probes is analyzed by melting curve analysis.
