  • Resuspended our primers (psB1A7 forward and reverse; TetR-GFP forward and reverse) to 100 μM.
  • Made 10-fold dilutions of each primer
  • Set up and ran PCR on psB1A7
    • varied concentration of vector (1 x, 1/10 x, 1/100 x) and annealing temperatures (58°C, 62°C, 66°C), giving nine variations;
    • used materials and amounts as per Phusion polymerase kit
- Cycling temperatures and times for PCR
    Initial denaturation           98°C            30 sec   ___
    Denaturation                   98°C            10 sec      |
    Annealing                      58/62/66 °C     30 sec      |--- 30 cycles
    Extension                      72°C            1 min    ___|
    Final extension                72°C            10 min
    Hold                           4°C             hold
