- A complete two-step kit for RT-PCR
Description: Finnzymes' Phusion™ RT-PCR Kit is a complete two-step kit designed for high-fidelity RT-PCR. The kit contains the full set of reagents required to perform cDNA synthesis and PCR in two steps. In the first step, a variety of RNA templates and all priming options may be used for efficient synthesis of cDNA with M-MuLV Reverse Transcriptase. In the second step, Phusion Hot Start High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase is used for cDNA amplification. This polymerase is extremely accurate and robust, and the hot start modification guarantees additional specificity in PCR. The superior features of Phusion Hot Start DNA Polymerase enable accurate cDNA amplification with high yields and short cycling times. Phusion RT-PCR Kit is an ideal choice when producing cDNA for cloning and gene expression studies.



 Robustness of different RT-PCR systems. A typical RT-PCR experiment for amplifying short cDNA fragments (192-1113 bp). Finnzymes' RT-PCR system was compared to the RT-PCR systems from two major suppliers. Total RNA from human skeletal muscle was transcribed with random priming according to each supplier's recommendations. Amplification of cDNA was performed with a high-fidelity DNA polymerase recommended by the suppliers. Due to the various sizes of amplicons, a PCR protocol with the lowest annealing temperature and the longest extension time defined by amplicons was used. Robust Phusion RT-PCR Kit produced all 11 amplicons with highest yields. With competitors' RT-PCR systems, less amplicons with varying yields were transcribed and amplified. M is a molecular size marker.




 Phusion RT-PCR Kit is able to amplify long RT-PCR fragments. 3.3 kb, 6 kb, 8 kb and 10 kb fragments of dystrophin gene were reverse transcribed and amplified with Phusion RT-PCR Kit. Oligo (dT) was used for priming. Starting template was human skeletal muscle total RNA (50 ng). M is a molecular size marker.
