Protocol 35628: Standard PCR Assay - Tg(Plp1-EGFP)10Wmac 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 = ~250 bp

Internal positive control = 521 bp
