Gel Visualization of 5/26 PCR
The PCR products from 5/26 were run on a 1% agarose gel against a 1kB ladder. I used 5 uL of each sample and added 1uL of loading dye.
(Need to add gel photo)
Results:
There were bands present for the correct base pair length (~1000bp). The sample run at 67C for the annealing step produced the cleanest, brightest band.
PCR of Honeybee G-block (Optimal)
From the gel visualization, 67C annealing temperature produced the best results. I am running a 50uL PCR reaction now under the optimal conditions.
| Component | Volume (out of 50uL) |
|---|---|
| 5X Q5 Reaction Buffer | 10uL |
| 10mM dNTPS | 1uL |
| 10mM primer 10 | 2.5uL |
| 10mM primer 11 | 2.5uL |
| Template (Honeybee G-block) | 1uL |
| Q5 High Fidelity DNA Polymerase | 0.5uL |
| Nuclease Free Water | 32.5uL |

Purification of PCR product
I purified my PCR product using Qiagen MinElute columns, following their protocol.
