Protocol 24544: Standard PCR Assay - Ccl2<tm1Rol>
Version 2.2

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

Melt Peaks
Wt = 83.2°C +/- 1
Mut = 88.6
°C +/- 1

Mutant = 179 bp
Heterozygote = 287 bp and 168 bp
Wild type = 287 bp

Analysis by HRM looks good - DL 4-16-14

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.
