Protocols
[1A] Polymerase Chain Reaction
PCR is used to rapidly amplify certain segments of DNA that are selected via designed primers. This protocol was used to accomplish a variety of goals, from extraction of parts from a cloning vector to the addition of restriction cut sites at the ends of parts.
- Defrost template, 2x Master Mix and primers
- Determine desired total working volume (~25uL)
- Label reaction tubes
Part | Concentration | Volume for 25uL reaction |
---|---|---|
2x Master Mix | 2x | 12.5uL |
dsDNA Template | - | 1uL |
Forward primer | - | 1uL |
Reverse primer | - | 1uL |
DI H2O | - | 9.5uL |
Sample Reaction
This is an example protocol used in the thermal cycler, durations and temperatures subject to change
Step Name | # of Cycles | Temperature(℃) | Duration(min) |
---|---|---|---|
Initial | 1 | 98 | 3 |
Denaturation | 30 | 98 | 0.5 |
Annealing | 30 | 56 | 0.5 |
Elongation | 30 | 72 | 0.5 |
Final Elongation | 1 | 72 | 10 |
Storage | 1 | 4 | ∞ |
