Protocol 551: Restriction Enzyme Digest Assay - Lep<ob>
Version 1.1

Notes

The genotyping protocol(s) presented here have been optimized for reagents and conditions used by The Jackson Laboratory (JAX). To genotype animals, JAX recommends researchers validate the assay independently upon receipt of animals into their facility. Reaction cycling temperature and times may require additional optimization based on the specific genotyping reagents used.

Expected Results

Mutant = 55 bp and 100 bp
Heterozygote = 55 bp, 100 bp and 155 bp
Wild type = 155 bp
Separate digested products on a 3.0% agarose gel.**
