PCR of extracted GFP 1.9 in pSB1C3 (pPS16_020)

By Maxence & Mahnaz

In order to verify if extracted plasmids contain GFP 1.9, a PCR was run with iPS168 & iPS169 to amplify the insert. For that purpose, plasmids sent for sequencing the 14th September (clones 2, 7, 8 and 12) and plasmids extracted the 23rd Sepembter (clones 3, 4, 7 and 8) were used.

For each 50μl of reaction, mix the following reagents :

  • 1 µL of matrix
  • 1 µL of dNTPs (10mM)
  • 2.5 µL of each primer mix (10µM)
  • 10 µL of buffer (5X)
  • 0,5 µL of Phusion polymerase
  • 32.5 µL of nuclease free water

Mix gently and aliquot 50 μl of the mix into the PCR tubes on ice. Perform PCR as follow:

Step Temperature Time
Initial denaturation 95°C 30sec
30 cycles 95°C 30sec
64.4°C 30sec
72°C 30sec
Final Extension 72°C 5min
Hold 4°C $\infty$
Primers used were:
Matrix Extracted plasmid pSB1C3 containing GFP 1.9 (pPS16_020)
Primers iPS168 and iPS169

Gel of PCR products

By Maxence & Manhaz

4 µL of PCR products and 4 µL of DNA ladder were placed in wells and migrated at 100V during 30 min, in odrder to verify the DNA quantity.
