Protocol 38260: QPCR Assay - Generic tdTomato QPCR
Version 2.0

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.

1 95.0 --
2 95.0 --
3 60.0 -- repeat steps 2-3 for 40 cycles
JAX uses a very high speed Taq (~1000 bp/sec), use cycling times recommended for your reagents.
