Overview

Overview

Fast, streamlined genotyping

Determine the genotypes of target alleles in most mammalian samples using our EZ-Genotyping™ Kit. Based on a robust endpoint PCR reaction, the EZ-Genotyping Kit mitigates the risk of sample cross-contamination occurring in the endpoint PCR reaction by conducting the genomic DNA extraction in a single tube.

The EZ-Genotyping Kit has a simple workflow The Kit is compatible with high throughput assays and can be used for a range of applications including identification of genotypes in mixed/clonal cell populations, DNA fingerprinting, and cell identity/contamination analysis. The complete Kit contains enough reagents to analyze genomic DNA from 50 samples.

How It Works

How It Works

The workflow at-a-glance

  1. Extract genomic DNA
    • Wash cells
    • Add CellExtract Solution
    • Heat for 2 minutes
    • Spin for 2 minutes
  2. Set up and run EZ-Genotyping PCR reaction
  3. Analyze on an agarose gel

The EZ-Genotyping Kit confirms mono- and bi-allelic genomic modifications

The EZ-Genotyping Kit enables the determination of allele status (wild-type (WT), single-allele knock-out (KO), or bi-allelic KO) in genome editing assays using homologous recombination (HR) targeting vectors along with TALENs or Cas9 SmartNucleases. Figure 1 shows the results from ten candidate cell lines that underwent gene knock-outs using TALENs and an HR vector. The genotyping results clearly show the allele status of each of the candidates: WT—Lines 1 and 3; mono-allelic KO—Lines 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10; bi-allelic KO: Line 2.
