  • Primers for ZCCHC24

    Dear Seqanswer members,

    I am desperately trying to amplify/sequence the first exon of the ZCCHC24 gene. I tried it with the following primers

    Fwd 5' cgaggcagatagcggatcg 3'

    Rev 5' cttggcttggcttcgttcaac 3'

    with several polymerases (PeqLab Taq-DNA-Polymerase, TaKaRa rTaq, TaqOne GC Kit) at several annealing temperatures (ranging from 50°C to 60°C). I also tried to add 1 µl DMSO. I get either unspecific products (which do not contain a product of desired length) or there is no product at all.

    A former employee already have tried the following primers and failed as well:

    Fwd 5' aactttcgctgcctccttc 3'

    Rev 5' ctgtctgacccgctcttcct 3'

    I don't know which polymerases and programms she used though.

    Do you have any ideas, how I could amplify/sequence this exon? Any suggestions, including primer suggestions are appreciated!

    Thank you in advance,

    Anna.

    Hi, Anna. What is your target species?

      Hi greekkey,

      I solved the problem in the meantime by adding DMSO, BSA and Betaine.

      Thank you for trying to help me though!

      Best,
      Anna.

        Recent Advances in Sequencing Analysis Tools
        by seqadmin


        The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...

        Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
        by seqadmin




        The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...
