Protocol 49338: Sanger sequencing Assay - PAX6*R240X-SEQ
Version 1.0

Notes

Mut = T

WT= C

This is an absence presence assays to detect the point mutation and will not distinguish hemi from hom

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.

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.
