Reaction Setup:

REAGENT VOLUME (µL) FINAL CONC.
10 µM Forward Primer 2 µL 0.4 µM
10 µM Reverse Primer 2 µL 0.4 µM
Template DNA Y (1ng) 1 ng
LongAmp Taq 2X Master Mix 25 µL 1X
Nuclease-free Water 21- Y


Final Volume = 50µL


Notes:

• LongAmp Taq 2X Master Mix can be used to amplify templates of up to 30kb long.

• LongAmp Taq 2X Master Mix can be stored at -20°C, however, it is only stable for 15 freeze-thaw cycles. For more frequent use, NEB recommends storing it at 4°C.

• Remember to first dilute primers in nuclease-free water if starting with a higher concentration

• Do not exceed 50 µL final volume

To find annealing temperature, follow steps on the NEB Tm Calculator [1]


Modifications:

• If template is GC rich, a longer initial denaturation of 2-4 minute is recommended

• If annealing temperature is above 60°C, use two-step PCR protocol below
