Protocol 23519: Standard PCR Assay - Tlr7<tm1Flv>
Version 2.2

Notes

The Tlr7 gene is X-LINKED. Males with the targeted allele are hemizygous mutants

 

Common primer is oIMR8629R, Mut primer oIMR8630 is F

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 = 183 bp
Heterozygote = 183 bp and 454 bp
Wild type = 454 bp

 

Separated 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.
