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.

1st stage
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)

(-) 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.

  2. 30" @ 95°C
  3. 1' @ 55°C
  4. 1'/kb @ 68°C
  5. remove from PCR machine, pipet off wax, and chill briefly to re-harden thin wax layer
  6. go immediately to 2nd stage:
