        An Economic PCR Enhancer for GC-Rich PCR Templates

        互联网

        1113

         

        Since PCR is often problematic on GC-rich templates, we have evaluated different PCR enhancing additives and generated an Combinatorial Enhancer Solution (CES). We tested this solution on approx. 50 different primer pairs using several different polymerases

        The 5x concentrated Combinatorial Enhancer Solution (CES) contains:

        2.7 M betaine
        6.7 mM DTT
        6.7% DMSO and
        55 μg/ml BSA

        Add this solution to your PCR and see if it works

        Some hints if your PCR still doesn''t work.

        1. Increase the annealing-temperature in comparison to PCR without CES
        2. Try different Mg concentrations
        3. Check if you didn''t add to much template (more than 20 ng/PCR can already inhibit the reaction!)
        4. Titrate the CES. In some cases, this can make a big difference

        We tested this enhancer also on PCR which works fine without additive and we virtually observed no negative effects. Therefore, we are now adding this enhancer for all our routine PCR.

        Notes

        1. Betaine: We prepare a 5M stock solution, which dissolves fine when autoclaving.
        2. Our classic PCR reactions are performed in the following buffer (final concentration) optimized for Taq DNA Polymerase (Supplementation with Pfu can increase the product quality and yield, not only enhancing the proof-reading!)

        65 mM Tris�HCl
        16.6 mM (NH4)2 SO4,
        3.1 mM MgCl2
        0.01% (v/v) Tween 20
        pH 8.8 (or 8.0)
        and supplemented with 5-10 pico-moles of each oligo (per reaction) and 0.5 μl of 25mM dNTP mix.

        If this enhancer helps you to improve your experiments and helps you to save time and money, be fair and cite the work:
