LCR Development

  • Final round of Phusion PCR reactions

Phusion PCR:

  1. MV10 + pol
  2. MV10 + pol
  3. MV10 no pol (neg ctrl to see how much of band is template)
Reagent Rxn1,2 Rxn3 Expected:
1,2. MV10 = 5191
3. No product 		Hover name
5 μL/lane; 1% agarose; Ladder
DNA(clean linear) 1.0 μL 1.0 μL
10 μM F primer 1.0 1.0
10 μM R primer 1.0 1.0
10 mM dNTPs 1.0 1.0
Phusion Pol. 0.5 ---
5X HF buffer 10.0 10.0
dH2O 35.5 36.0
  50.0 50.0

Program: Phusion (block A)

  • 98°C, 3 min
  • 35x[98°C, 10 sec; 65°C, 30 sec; 72°C, 2.5 min]
  • 72°C, 10 min
  • 4°C ∞


Conclusion

  • Lane 3 shows product. Must have accidentally added Phusion pol.
  • Desired band not any brighter than reaction done at 60°C (see 04/17/15).
  • Use reactions from 4/17/15 instead of these for LCR.


Phusion PCR:

  1. Gal4DB-mCh - plasmid
  2. "
  3. ATF2 - plasmid template
  4. "
  5. ATF2 - 1:10 iPSC cDNA template
  6. "

  • 4°C ∞


Conclusion

  • Gal4DB-mCh - much better than previous reactions. Purify these (combined) and use for LCR
  • ATF2 - rxns w/ plasmid template look awesome! cDNA templates give a spurious band. Use plasmid PCR's (combined, purified) for LCR.
