Track: Alpha-pinene synthase
Joe is troubleshooting his PCR reaction in preparation of his yeast and biobrick plasmid construction. This time he used an annealing temperature of 60 degree Celsius, the low range for Phusion Hot Start Polymerase. The results after gel verification show a supercoiled DNA above the 1kb ladder and a small non-specific high molecular weight smear near 6-8kb. This was unexpected as the pinene synathase should be around 2.1kb long. It is unknown why this may be. Next time, he will try increasing the extension time and a higher annealing temperature.
