2-stage QuikChange protocol
This protocol is based on the report by Wang & Malcolm. (1999) Biotechniques 26:680-682. It is especially helpful for large inserts.
| Tube | sterile H2O | Pfu Buffer | Template | For primer | Rev primer | dNTPs | Pfu Turbo | wax |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| (10X) | (10 μg/mL) | (12.5 ng/μL) | (12.5 ng/μL) | (10 mM ea) | (2.5 U/μL) | |||
| Experimental-forward | 27 μL | 5 μL | 5 μL | 10 μL | 0 μL | 2 μL | 1 μL | 50 μL |
| Experimental-reverse | 27 μL | 5 μL | 5 μL | 0 μL | 10 μL | 2 μL | 1 μL | 50 μL |
| (-) Control-forward | 28 μL | 5 μL | 5 μL | 10 μL | 0 μL | 2 μL | 0 μL | 50 μL |
| (-) Control-reverse | 28 μL | 5 μL | 5 μL | 0 μL | 10 μL | 2 μL | 0 μL | 50 μL |
- Add each from left to right. Mix and spin before adding Pfu Turbo. Gentle mixing and spin after Pfu Turbo. Don't mix in wax.
- dNTPs should be aliquoted to minimize freeze-thaw cycles and ensure the integrity of the triphosphate.
- 30" @ 95°C
- 30" @ 95°C
- 1' @ 55°C
- 1'/kb @ 68°C
- remove from PCR machine, pipet off wax, and chill briefly to re-harden thin wax layer
- go immediately to 2nd stage:
| Tube | 1st stage-forward | 1st stage-reverse | Pfu Turbo | wax |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (2.5 U/μL) | ||||
| Experimental | 25 μL | 25 μL | 1 μL | 50 μL |
| (-) Control | 25 μL | 25 μL | 0 μL | 50 μL |
- Mix DNA and Pfu by pipetting, then add wax.
- 30" @ 95°C
- 30" @ 95°C
- 1' @ 55°C
- 1'/kb @ 68°C
- repeat steps 2-4 x 17 more times
- 15' @ 68°C
- hold @ 4°C
