DNA Prep

  • Make a 1:10 dilution of each of your primers
    • 3 μL primer + 27 μL ddH20 will usually suffice
  • Label your tubes
    • Use 1.5 mL microcentrifuge tubes
  • Add 1 μL of the appropriate primer to each tube
  • Add 9 μL DNA from a cleaned up PCR
    • Each sequence will require two samples—one with the upstream primer and one with the downstream primer
  • Report your sequencing reactions to Dr. Griffitts or online
  • Take your sequencing reactions to 690 WIDB and put them in the refrigerator
    • Make sure the liquid is at the bottom of the tube
