Site-directed mutagenesis protocol

This protocol does not require any special enzymes or kits, only a regular PCR block and equipment to handle DNA.

1. Primer design with Strategene's primer design tool 2. Order both primers 5'-phosphorylated 3. Perform a 20 microL PCR reaction to test the primers, if a strong band in the desired region is obtained repeat the PCR with 2-4 50x microL reactions 4. Run the PCR product on an Agarose gel (1% or less) and isolate the desired band with a method of your choice 5.
