Protocol 24709: Separated PCR Assay - Trp53<tm3Tyj>Lox-STOP-Lox
Version 1.2

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 = ~380 bp
Heterozygote = ~380 bp and 371 bp
Wild type = 371 bp


This assay will specifically determine whether the loxP flanked STOP cassette (LSL) is present or absent.

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.
