Protocol 17243: Standard PCR Assay - Tg(tetO-Fgf10)1Jaw Alternate1
Version 1.0

Notes

This assay will NOT distinguish hemizygous from homozygous transgenic animals.

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 = ~700 bp

Internal positive control = 324 bp
