[QP2510] Q-PAGE™ Bis-Tris Precast Gel (Mini, 12 wells, 4-12%), 10 gels

• HiDi® stands for High Discrimination of mismatches at the 3’-terminus of primers in PCR. This myPOLS Biotec enzyme family is optimized for this feature and is the first choice for applications that rely on this property such as allele-specific PCR (asPCR) that is also termed allele-specific amplification (ASA).This polymerase is also available as a full-length Taq DNA polymerase with a nuclease domain, featuring 100% compatibility with hydrolysis probes (TaqMan® probes etc.).Benchmarking with products of competitors conducted by us and others show that the HiDi® DNA polymerase family is the first choice for highly selective PCRs, such as genotyping by allele-specific PCR, HLA genotyping, analysis of single CpG methylation sites or the detection of mutations in a high background of wild-type sequences. By using HiDi® DNA polymerase, less than 10 copies of a mutation can be detected in a background of >10.000 wild-type copies straight away without any other tedious assay optimization.Several independently conducted studies show that HiDi® DNA polymerase is ideally suited for use in asPCR in numerous research areas ranging from mutation detection to genome editing.

Example Primer Design

Matching vs. mismatching nucleotide is placed at the 3′-end of the primer for best discrimination results.

Example Results – There´s no accounting for taste

Cilantro: some people love it in their food, some hate it. Here we are detecting a genomic SNP (rs72921001) in HeLa genomic DNA. This SNP is reported to be close to a number of genes coding for olfactory receptors. (Reference: Eriksson N. et al. (2012), “A genetic variant near olfactory receptor genes influences cilantro preference.”)

Considering, that only the C-allele specific primer is extended and yielding in a specific amplicon, we can conclude a genetic predisposition in disliking cilantro, as this SNP is significantly associated with detecting a soapy taste to cilantro.  

Allele-specific PCRs were performed from 1 ng/µl of HeLa gDNA in the presence of a realtime dye, indicating the amplification of the C-allele specific primer only. The A-allele specific primer is discriminated, thus not amplified up to 50 cycles.

PCR products were subsequently analysed on a 2.5% agarose gel. Specific product is visualized by ethidium bromide staining at the amplicon length of 109 bp.

Description 

The ExcelTaq™ 2X Q-PCR Master Mix (SYBR, no ROX) is a ready-to-use reagent with all the essential components for quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) except primers and template. The master mix features high sensitivity and signal intensity as well as low background and better compatibility with cDNA templates derived directly from reverse transcription reaction mixture. The ExcelTaq™ 2X Q-PCR Master Mix (SYBR, no ROX) contains hot-start Taq polymerase in an optimized buffer with dsDNA specific SYBR green fluorescent dye. This master mix allows for sensitive, precise amplification, real-time tracking of the amplification process, and simultaneous quantification for targeted DNA molecules. With inert smart blue contrast dye, the ExcelTaq™ 2X Q-PCR Master Mix (SYBR, no ROX) is ready-to-use and greatly reduces pipetting errors, while largely improving the reproducibility of the process. The ExcelTaq™ 2X Q-PCR Master Mix is also compatible with a ROX reference dye if recommended by the manufacturer of the qPCR system.
