Selecting specific PCR primers with MFEprimer.
Selecting specific primers is crucial for polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Nonspecific primers will bind to unintended genes and result in nonspecific amplicons. MFEprimer is a program for checking the specificity of PCR primers against the background DNA. In this chapter, we introduce: (1) the factors that affect the specificity of primers; (2) the principle of MFEprimer and its settings; (3) ...
متن کاملIdentification of Bifidobacterium Strains Isolated from Fecal Samples of Some Iranian Subjects Using 16SrRNA Gene Sequence Analysis and PCR-based Gene Specific Primers
For the first time in Iran 40 strains of Bifidobacterium were isolated from feces of Iranian subjects. By using phenotypic tests, 18 isolates were identified as Bifidobacterium longum, 10 as Bifidobacterium bifidum and one as Bifidobacterium catenolatum. In order to validate these results and also to identify other isolates that had not been identified by phenotypic tests, two methods of PCR wi...
متن کاملDiscrimination of reproductive forms of Thrips tabaci (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) by PCR with sequence specific primers.
In agriculture, although it is important to identify species of pest insects, the morphological identification is often difficult. DNA genotyping is useful for the identification of species in morphologically indiscriminable species. Thrips tabaci (Lindeman) can be divided into two reproductive forms (arrhenotoky and thelytoky, each of which different in pesticide resistance) but morphological ...
متن کاملEstablishment of an optimized PCR method using sequence-specific primers for screening multiple gene polymorphisms simultaneously.
The present study aimed to explore the factors that affect polymerase chain reaction using sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP) and to establish an optimized PCR-SSP method for detecting multiple gene polymorphisms simultaneously. The amplification system parameters, including the concentrations of Mg2+, dNTPs, pfu Taq, primers and control primers, were optimized using the designed PCR-SSP react...
متن کاملSequence information can be obtained from single DNA molecules.
The completion of the human genome draft has taken several years and is only the beginning of a period in which large amounts of DNA and RNA sequence information will be required from many individuals and species. Conventional sequencing technology has limitations in cost, speed, and sensitivity, with the result that the demand for sequence information far outstrips current capacity. There have...
