PCR Primer Analysis

 What is a Primer?

A primer is a short synthetic oligonucleotide which is used in many molecular techniques from PCR to DNA sequencing. These primers are designed to have a sequence which is the reverse complement of a region of template or target DNA to which we wish the primer to anneal.

PCR Protocols

1. Mix the DNA polymerase, dNTP, DNA templates and DNA primers in a clean PCR tube. Then put the tube in PCR machine and begin setting

2. Pre-Denaturation: 95°C for 10min

3. Denaturation: 95°C for 30s

4. Annealing: 55°C±10°C (The exact temperature is determined by the length and GC percentage of your primers. You could find an answer in the user manual attached with your purchased primers)

5. Elongation: 72°C (The exact temperature is determined by the DNA polymerase you will use. You could find an answer in the user manual attached with the DNA polymerase you have purchased)

6. Cycle: Set the PCR machine to cycle from step 2 to step 4 between 20 and 30 times

7. Final Elongation: 72°C for 10-15min (The exact time is determined by the length of the double strain DNA you want to amplify. Typically, a longer DNA you want to amplify, a longer time you will need to set in this step)

8. Hold: 4°C for a long enough time until you proceed using PCR products in the next experiment

Analysis of Primer Sequences

When designing primers for PCR, sequencing or mutagenesis it is often necessary to make predictions about these primers, for example melting temperature (Tm) and propensity to form dimers with itself or other primers in the reaction. The following program will perform these calculations on any primer sequence or pair.

The programs will calculate both the Tm of the primers, as well as any undesirable pairings of primers. When primers form hairpin loops or dimers, less primer is available for the desired reaction.

A Nickel-Catalyzed Reductive Alkylation of Aryl Bromides and Chlorides for Sp3-Sp2 Bond Formation

  In 2012, a nickel-catalyzed reductive alkylation method of aryl bromides and chlorides was reported. Under the optimized conditions, a variety of aryl and vinyl bromides as well as active aryl chloride can be reductively coupled with alkyl bromides in high yields. The protocols were highly functional-group tolerant and the reactions were not air or moisture sensitive. The reaction showed different chemoselectivity than conventional cross-coupling reactions. Substrates bearing both anelectrophilic and nucleophilic carbon resulted in selective coupling at the electrophilic carbon (R-X) and no reaction occurred at the nucleophilic carbon (R-[M]). The 2010 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded for the Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling, and in the past decade the progress in cross-coupling has not only had a significant impact on academic research but has also influenced the industrial synthetic application. The transition-metal-catalyzed union of nucleophilic organo-boronic acids with elect...

What is Toxicokinetics?

Toxicokinetics  is essentially the study of “how a substance gets into the body and what happens to it in the body”. Four processes are involved in toxicokinetics. The study of the kinetics (movement) of chemicals was originally conducted with pharmaceuticals and thus the term pharmacokinetics became commonly used. In addition, toxicology studies were initially conducted with drugs. However, the science of toxicology has evolved to include environmental and occupational chemicals as well as drugs. Toxicokinetics is thus the appropriate term for the study of the kinetics of all toxic substances. Frequently the terms  toxicokinetics ,  pharmacokinetics , or disposition may be found in the literature to have the same meaning. Disposition is often used in place of toxicokinetics to describe the time-course of movement of chemicals through the body (that is, how does the body dispose of a xenobiotic?). The disposition of a toxicant along with its’ biological reactivi...
