PCR (Phusion Polymerase)

1. Set Up PCR Reaction:

     1 uL template DNA
     10 uL Phusion 5x HF Buffer
     1 uL 10mM dNTPs
     5 uL Primer Mix
     0.5 uL DMSO (optional)
     0.5 uL Phusion Polymerase
     Add H2O to total volume 50 uL


2. Run PCR machine

  • Use 30 sec/kb for extension
  • General cycle:
    1. Initial Denature	98ºC 		30 sec 
    2. Denaturation	        98 ºC	   	8 sec	
    3. Annealing		Annealing Temp	30 sec	
    4. Extension		72 ºC		30sec/kb
    5. Repeat steps 2-4 for an additional 29 cycles
    6. Final Extension	        72 ºC		10 min
    7. 			4 ºC 		forever
  • Immediately place on ice or in 4 ºC after removing from PCR machine
