Product Description

RACE (Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends) is a technique for rapid amplification of cDNA ends of unknown genes, starting from known sequences in some regions. This product was developed using Total RNA or Poly A+ A kit for rapid amplification of cDNA 5’ end and 3’ end sequences by reverse transcription using RNA as a template. The kits contain the components required for 5’ RACE and 3’ RACE amplification and can be selected according to needs.

For 5’ RACE, the template-switching activity of reverse transcriptase is utilized to add a splice at the 5’ end of the RNA, and RACE PCR amplification can be carried out directly without the need for Adaptor connection and other steps, making the entire process faster and simpler; PCR The PCR amplification system utilizes our high performance L-Exp Taq HS DNA Polymerase, with the ability to amplify complex fragments such as long fragments or high GC content, and carefully optimized Buffer system, this product has a high degree of specificity, which can reduce the dispersion phenomenon in RACE experiments.

This product contains all the reagents for the carefully optimized 5’ RACE and 3’ RACE reactions, please use the reagents included in this kit for reverse transcription and PCR amplification experiments, and if you need to make substitutions, please verify them first.

Example 1

The positive control RNA (Control Mouse Liver Total RNA) included in the kit was used as template, and the 5’ and 3’ primers (Control 5′ Gene-Specific Primer) and other components of the kit were used to amplify the 5’ and 3’ products, respectively. Specific Primer) and other components of the kit were used for 5’ and 3’ RACE amplification, and the 5' product (1.6 kb) and 3' product (0.6 kb) were successfully obtained.

The electrophoresis results are as follows:

Example 2

Using mouse heart templates, this kit was employed for mouse Hspb1 The 5’ RACE amplification of the gene resulted in a non-specific band in one round of amplification; a second round of amplification (nested PCR) of the first round of amplification product significantly increased the specificity of the product and resulted in a single target band.

The electrophoresis results are as follows:
