'''Optimization parameters'''
* Borun et al reported cleaner peak profiles after a 30-cycle amplification (vs. 40 cycles)
** We will use 30 cycles instead of 45
* Borun et al used at LEAST 50 ng genomic DNA in their reactions (final amount per PCR ambiguous)
** We will test 20 ng, 50 ng, and 70 ng (70 is our upper limit because of the concentration of the Blank DNA sample)

qPCR melt curve optimization - mCherry CRISPR 1
Assistance from Kumaran Lleng

Optimization parameters

  • Borun et al reported cleaner peak profiles after a 30-cycle amplification (vs. 40 cycles)
    • We will use 30 cycles instead of 45
  • Borun et al used at LEAST 50 ng genomic DNA in their reactions (final amount per PCR ambiguous)
    • We will test 20 ng, 50 ng, and 70 ng (70 is our upper limit because of the concentration of the Blank DNA sample)


Master reaction list

Rxn # Template Target (primers) Method
1 1 20 ng q2F_q3R CNV melt
2 1 20 ng GAPDH B2 "
3 1 50 ng q2F_q3R "
4 1 50 ng GAPDH B2 "
5 1 70 ng P3F_q3R "
6 1 70 ng GAPDH B2 '
7 Blank 20 ng q2F_q3R CNV melt
8 Blank 20 ng GAPDH B2 CNV melt
9 Blank 50 ng q2F_q3R CNV melt
10 Blank 50 ng GAPDH B2 US specific
11 Blank 70 ng q2F_q3R US specific
12 Blank 70 ng GAPDH B2 US specific

Notes:

  • Opaque white plates
  • Final reaction volumes = 15 μL
  • Each reaction had 3.0 μL of 750 nM F/R primers, 20 ng - 70 ng template DNA, 1x Roche SYBR
  • Batch (master) mixes...
    • Primers: Primers plus SYBR, 10.5 μL mix per relevant well, one mix per unique primer pair
    • Templates: DNA plus water, 4.5 μL mix per relevant well, one mix per unique template
    • Final triplicates for the 96-well plate were first made as a single batch, then aliquoted from the batch tube into the 96-well plate
  • nTc for q2F_q3R and GAPDH confirmed no background signal under identical conditions on 08/04/14


Run PCR - Bio-Rad CFX96

  • 95°C, 3 min
  • 30x [95°C, 10 sec / 57°C, 10 sec / 72°C, 10 sec]
  • 72°C, 30 sec
  • Melt: 60°C -- +0.1°C/ 5 sec --> 95°C
