B7Sym15 PCR 6/5/19 #3
E37 E40 E41 E42 E43 E44 / E45 E46 E47 E48 E49 E50
Procedure
Samples E37 E40 E41 E42 E43 E44 E45 E46 E47 E48 E49 E50 were used in this PCR (polimerase chain reaction) reaction
First A Master Mix of water, 2x mytaq mix, B7Sym15 Primer Reverse (concentration: 10 micromolar), B7Sym15 Primer Forward (concentration: 10 micromolar)
| Component | Volume for 12 reactions(+5% error) |
|---|---|
| Water | 113.4 micoleters |
| 2x mytaq mix | 157.5 micoleters |
| B7Sym15 Primer Reverse (concentration: 10 micromolar) | 12.6 micoleters |
| B7Sym15 Primer Forward (concentration: 10 micromolar) | 12.6 micoleters |
24 micoleters of this master mix was added to 12 tubes For the 4 controls 12.5 micoleters water and 12.5 micoleters mytaq mix were added
1 microleter of the DNA samples was added to the coresponding tube
The samples were then placed in the thermocycler set to
The denaturing, Annealing, and Extension times were changed from 15 seconds to 30/60/15 and the cycles were increased to 35
| Step | Temperature | Duration | cycles |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 94°C | 2:00 | 1 |
| 2 | 94°C | 0:30 | 35 |
| 3 | 59°C | 0:60 | 35 |
| 4 | 72°C | 0:15 | 35 |
| 5 | 72°C | 5:00 | 1 |
| 6 | 10°C | hold | - |
these amplified DNA samples were then tested by making a gel
to create the Gel the following steps were taken
2g agarose and 100ml 1X TAE buffer were mixed to make a 2% agarose 100ml gel mix the mix was microwaved and swirled until there were no flakes then 1 microliters Gelgreen was added
the mix was left to cool for 5 minutes then poured into the gel mold the gel was left to harden for 30 minutes
once hardened enough Used TAE buffer was poured into the gel box to cover the mold
5 microliter aliquots of DNA samples E37 E40 E41 E42 E43 E44 E45 E46 E47 E48 E49 E50 and the four controls were made 1 microliter of 5x loading dye was added to each
First the HyperLadder 100bp was added to the first well of the mold then the DNA samples were each added to the wells in the following order
| Ladder | E37 | E40 | E41 | Control | E42 | E43 | E44 | Control |
| Ladder | E45 | E46 | E47 | Control | E48 | E49 | E50 | Control |
The voltage was set to 100V and run for 60 minutes
This is the resulting Gel

Notes
The length of the bands do not match up with the expected B7sym15 length due to them having an attached tail to aid in sequencing them.
