Protocol 22305: Standard PCR Assay - Tg(YAC72)2511Hay - (HDexon1)
Version 1.3

Notes

10X AM Buffer: 670mM Tris.HCL pH8.8, 166mM NH4SO4, 20mM MgCl2, 1.7mg/ml BSA. Dissolve in 9 ml TE, pH to 8.8, then bring final volume to 10 ml with TE (NOT water!) Filter sterilize. Add 2-mercaptoethanol to 10 mM prior to use.
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

Transgene = ~ 450bp
Add DNA loading dye; separate by gel electrophoresis on a 1.5% agarose gel.

JAX uses a very high speed Taq (~1000 bp/sec), use cycling times recommended for your reagents.
JAX uses a 'touchdown' cycling protocol and therefore has not calculated the optimal annealing temperature for each set of primers.
