Sequence capture-PCR improves detection of mycobacterial DNA in clinical specimens.
The rapid identification of mycobacterial DNA in clinical samples by PCR can be useful in the diagnosis of tuberculous infections, but several large studies have found that the sensitivity of this approach is not better than that of culture. In order to improve the sensitivity of detection of mycobacterial DNA in clinical specimens from patients with paucibacillary forms of tuberculosis, we hav...
متن کاملBetaine improves the PCR amplification of GC-rich DNA sequences.
Betaine improves the co-amplification of the two alternatively spliced variants of the prostate-specific membrane antigen mRNA as well as the amplification of the coding cDNA region of c-jun. It is suggested that betaine improves the amplification of these genes by reducing the formation of secondary structure caused by GC-rich regions and, therefore, may be generally applicable to ameliorate t...
متن کاملDevelopment of an exonuclease protection mediated PCR bioassay for sensitive detection of Ah receptor agonists.
The aromatic hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor that mediates many of the biological and toxicological effects of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD, dioxin) and related chemicals. Here we developed a novel method to detect the presence of AhR ligands using Exonuclease Protection Mediated PCR bioassay (EPM-PCR). This assay measures the ability of a chem...
متن کاملEscherichia coli exonuclease III enhances long PCR amplification of damaged DNA templates.
Recent development of the long PCR technology has provided an invaluable tool in many areas of molecular biology. However, long PCR amplification fails whenever the DNA template is imperfectly preserved. We report that Escherichia coli exonuclease III, a major repair enzyme in bacteria, strikingly improves the long PCR amplification of damaged DNA templates. Escherichia coli exonuclease III per...
متن کاملHigh primer concentration improves PCR amplification from random pools.
The success of PCR is partly based on its exponential amplification characteristics. Nevertheless, in practice, the achievable yields are limited. Figure 1A and B shows the quantification of a typical reaction with varying but defined amounts of starting template. Every five cycles an aliquot of the reaction was removed and afterwards the amount of accumulated product quantitated. Although, ini...
