| Application: | The Expand Long Range dNTPack is optimized to efficiently amplify large genomic DNA fragments from 5kb to 25kb in combination with a threefold higher fidelity than Taq DNA Polymerase. The Expand Long Range dNTPack is ideally suited for: • Genome mapping and sequencing • Contig construction • Characterization of cloned sequences in lambda phages or cosmids • Cloning and analysis of eukaryotic genes • Rapid identification and cloning of complete genes from genomic DNA using cDNA sequence as starting material • Two-step RT-PCR Use the specially designed buffer set, ultrapure PCR Nucleotide Mix, and optimized blend of thermostable DNA polymerases for: • PCR • Large-fragment amplification • RT-PCR For amplicon sizes of 20 to 35kb choose Expand 20kb PLUS PCR System, dNTPack. |
| Features and Benefits: | Expand Long Range PCR System is ideal for genome mapping and sequencing, contig construction, characterization of cloned sequences in lambda phages or cosmids, and eukaryotic-gene cloning and analysis. Amplify DNA fragments from 5 to 20kb from human genomic DNA, and 40kb from λDNA using supplied reaction buffers. Use 3.75U for a standard 50μl PCR. Each dNTPack contains 10mM additive-free sodium salt nucleotides as a ready-to-use mix. • Amplify long templates up to 25kb with high specificity, yield, and increased fidelity. • Save time and resources. Use one buffer, and fine-tune using the DMSO and MgCl2 solution. • Use this kit for all long template applications. Obtain high yields of your desired fragment. • Cost-effective. Use the convenient premixed solution of PCR grade dNTPs. |
| General description: | The Expand Long Range dNTPack is the second-generation version of the Expand Long Template PCR System, optimized and designed to consistently amplify PCR products from 5kb up to 25kb from genomic DNA (or up to 40kb from λ DNA templates). The supplied buffer can be used for all PCR product sizes. In addition, a buffer without MgCl2, and separate vials of MgCl2 and DMSO are included if optimization is needed. Expand Long Range dNTPack contains a special enzyme mix that consists of thermostable Taq DNA Polymerase and a thermostable DNA polymerase with proofreading activity. This powerful polymerase mixture produces a high yield of PCR product. Due to the inherent 3′–5′ exonuclease activity of the proofreading polymerase, Expand Long Range dNTPack copies DNA three times more accurately than Taq DNA Polymerase. |
