Multiplex PCR: use of heat-stable Thermus thermophilus RecA protein to minimize non-specific PCR products
In this paper we report that the inclusion of heat-resistant RecA protein from a thermophilic bacteria, Thermus thermophilus, and its cofactor (ATP) in PCR effectively eliminates non-specific PCR products. The effect of RecA protein, which catalyzes pairing between homologous DNA molecules with great fidelity in genetic recombination, is due to its promotion of precise priming in PCR (i.e. prim...
متن کاملTwo-color quantitative multiplex methylation-specific PCR.
In recent years, several methylation-specific PCR-based techniques have been developed to identify and characterize hypermethylation of CpG dinucleotides with the primary goal of elucidating a better understanding of the role of DNA methylation in important biological processes, such as chromosome X inactivation and carcinogenesis. The specificity of methylation-specific PCR (MSP) techniques re...
متن کاملLong-Range PCR Amplification of DNA by DNA Polymerase III Holoenzyme from Thermus thermophilus
DNA replication in bacteria is accomplished by a multicomponent replicase, the DNA polymerase III holoenzyme (pol III HE). The three essential components of the pol III HE are the α polymerase, the β sliding clamp processivity factor, and the DnaX clamp-loader complex. We report here the assembly of the functional holoenzyme from Thermus thermophilus (Tth), an extreme thermophile. The minimal h...
متن کاملMultiplex genotyping of PCR products with MassTag-labeled primers.
A simple mass spectrometric based assay, the PinPoint assay, has previously been described for typing single nucleotide polymorphisms. The identity of a polymorphism is determined by mass differences of single base extended genotyping primers as determined by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. A simple method for multiplexing the assay is described, employing multiple primers with 5'oligo(dT) sequenc...
متن کاملComparing Rapid and Specific Detection of Brucella in Clinical Samples by PCR-ELISA and Multiplex-PCR Method
Background: Rapid diagnosis and differentiation of Brucella is of high importance due to the side effects of antibiotics for the treatment of brucellosis. This study aimed to identify and compare PCR-ELISA as a more accurate diagnositc test with other common molecular and serological tests. Methods: ...
