-
In the first round of PCR, we amplified fragments required for the assembly of GA1, GA2, GA3 and GA4 constructs.
 
-
*We performed PCR using [[Team:Cambridge/Protocols/PCR#Reagents_used_in_PCR_reaction | Phusion Hot Start DNA Polymerase]] in 20 μl reaction volume.
 
-
*The time profile used in the PCR machine was the following:

We decided to use the 55°C annealing temperaure, although the predicted temperature for most primers is 5-10°C higher, because of a low annealing temperature of the VF2 primer.
 
-
*Primers and template DNA provided by our supervisor Paul served as a positive control, but we did not detect any products on a gel.
