Ac-mon00004 PCR verification

Ac-mon00004 PCR verification gel:
Lane 1 = Ac-mon00004.1
Lane 2 = Ac-mon00004.2
Lane 3 = Ac-mon00004.3
Lane 4 = Ac-mon00004.4
Lane 5 = Ac-mon00004.8
Lane 6 = P-vv
Lane 7 = positive control
Lane 8 = negative control
Lane 13 = 100 bp ladder

PCR verification primers:
Ac (monki00-4.1Ac1): 5’-CCCGCAAGTTAAATATGAAAATGA -3’
flanking (monki00-4.1F1): 5’-GATGCCCGCCCTGAAGGAAGG -3’
Product size: 530 bp

PCR verification notes:
The DNA flanking the newly transposed Ac was cloned and sequenced from one individual line. Verification PCR was performed using lines (lanes 1 to 5) that contained the newly transposed Ac element. An Ac-specific primer was used with a gene-specific primer to amplify the fragment of 530 bp. The absence of this Ac from the progenitor line results in the absence of the PCR product (lane 6). Detailed descriptions of Ac verification can be found in Brutnell and Conrad, 2003, Methods in Molecular Biology, 236:157-76.
