General Description |
|
DNase I is purified from bovine pancreas that degrades single-stranded or double-stranded DNA to produce
3-hydroxyl oligonucleotides. This enzyme is used in molecular biology techniques like digestion of DNA, in the
RNA isolation, nick translation and DNase I footprinting. |

Storage buffer: |
|
The AmpliQ Genomic Amplifier Kit generates an almost unlimited source of DNA for genetic studies. The AmpliQ Genomic Amplifier method exponentially amplifies single or double stranded linear DNA template during an isothermal strand displacement reaction. Amplification of genomic DNA from lysates generates representative, high fidelity DNA (error rate 107) that can be used in various genetic studies. The DNA generated by the AmpliQ Genomic Amplifier Kit is high molecular weight and double-stranded, however a small part of the DNA will be single stranded. Most DNA purification method can be used to generate starting template. In many cases unpurified cell lysates can be directly used as starting material. Typically DNA in the μg range is produced from ng starting material in an overnight incubation at 30°C. |

|
Key Features |
|
- Getting unlimited test material from limited sources of DNA material.
- From ng template DNA to μg DNA in an overnight incubation.
- High-quality and representative DNA for genetic analysis, DNA storing and forensic work.

Enzyme is supplied in 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 100 mM KCl, 0.1 mM EDTA, 1 mM DTT, 0.5% Tween 20, 0.5% NP40, 50% glycerol. |
|
|
Quality Control |
|
10 ng of Human genomic DNA will produce between 2-5 ug of DNA. The quality of DNA is judged visually from running the DNA on agarose gel electrophoreses. The quality of the DNA is analysed by Real Time PCR using different primer sets specific for loci on different chromosomes. |
|
|
Important notes: |
|
- 1 ng (350 copies of human genomic DNA) of DNA is required for efficient representative amplification.
- The AmpliQ Genomic Amplifier Kit is extremely sensitive, very small amounts of any input DNA will be efficiently amplified, it is therefore important to use clean implements and containers.
- It is recommended to use as small volume template DNA as possible (1-2 μL) since contaminants within the sample can inhibit the reaction (i.e. SDS, EDTA, hemoglobin, high salt).
- It is recommended to use as intact DNA as possible, since nicked, “old” or restriction enzyme digested DNA will perform poorly in the reaction.
- In absence of template DNA, an amplified non-specific product will likely appear (hexamer primer amplification), however this product will not influence in later applications.
- It should be tested if the various templates can be applied directly or a DNA purification step has to be performed.
- Some applications are sensitive to residual components of the reaction or carry-over from the starting sample. The need for purifying DNA for downstream applications is best determined empirically.
- For some application an extra 3 minutes denaturation step of the template DNA can help to generate more yield.

Suggested Protocol for the AmpliQ Genomic Amplifier Kit. |
|
This protocol serves as a guideline for DNA amplification. Optimal reaction conditions such as template pre-purification and amount of template DNA may vary and must be individually determined.
- Thaw 10X Amplifier buffer, Genomic Control DNA and Primer-mix solutions. It is important to mix the solutions completely before use to avoid localized concentrations of salts.
- Prepare a master mix according to Table 1.
- Use 1 μL of control DNA (10 ng/μL) and run this reaction parallel as a positive control.

- Mix the master mix thoroughly and incubate at
30°C overnight (8 – 18 hours). A thermal cycler
can be used as an incubator.
- Heat inactivate the amplifier mix by incubating at
65°C for 10 minutes.
- The tube should now contain amplified DNA that
can be used for many applications directly or after
a purification step.
To verify the amplification run a small part of the
sample on an agarose gel as illustrated in figure 1.

Quantification of Amplified DNA products |
|
The amount of amplified product can be determined using standard UV absorption (OD260). However since the present of polymerase, dNTP and primers will generate inaccurate results, it is recommended to purify the DNA product before using UV absorption (OD260) method. Standard ethanol precipitation purification is sufficient to solve this issue. |
