Keep the Plus DNA polymerase on ice.b.Set up the PCR reaction on ice as follows:To amplify dsDNA 6kbReagentFinal ConcentrationVolumeFinal ConcentrationVolumeNuclease-free water-(36.5-x)µl-(29-y)µl10X Buffer (with Mg2+)1×5µl1×5µldNTP (2.5mM each)0.25mM each5µl0.5mM each10µlTemplate DNA10pg-1µg*xµl10pg-1µg*yµlPrimer mixtures (10µM each)0.2µM each1µl0.4µM each2µl DNA Polymerase2.5U/50µl1µl2.5U/50µl1µlTotal volume-50µl-50µlNote 1: When multiple reactions are required, prepare a master mix including all reagents except template and primer, and then dispense to different nuclease-free PCR tubes. Sometimes, the master mix can also include template and primer.Note 2: When amplifying fragments larger than 6kb, the amount of template should be increased appropriately, but too much template DNA can also easily lead to non-specific PCR amplification products. * The recommended amount of template varies for different types of DNA. In a reaction volume of 50µl, use 100 ng of Mammalian genomic DNA, 100 ng of E. coli genomic DNA, or 5-30 ng of Plasmid DNA. c.Mix the PCR reaction mixture by gentle vortex or pipetting. Centrifuge briefly to collect liquid at the bottom of the PCR tube. d.(Optional) When using a thermocycler without a heated lid, place a drop of mineral oil onto the top of PCR reaction mixture.2.Transfer the PCR reaction to a thermocycler and run thermocycling conditions as follows:StepTo amplify dsDNA 6kbCyclesInitial denaturation94℃ 3min94℃ 3min1Denaturation94℃ 30sec94℃ 30sec30Annealing55℃ 30sec55℃ 30secExtension68℃ 15s/kb68℃ 1min/kbFinal extension68℃ 10min68℃ 15min1Hold4℃ forever4℃ forever-Note 1: The extension temperature can also be set to 72℃, but the amplification will be slightly reduced. For DNA fragments difficult to amplify, denaturation at 92℃ and extension at 72℃ are recommended. Note 2: PCR running conditions should be adjusted based on the template, primer sequence, the length of PCR product or GC content, etc.Note 3: The optimal extension time varies depending on the amplicon length. For amplification of DNA fragments shorter than 6kb, the recommended extension time is 15 seconds per kb (e.g. use 15 seconds to amplify 1kb fragment and 30 seconds to amplify 2kb fragment). When amplifying DNA fragments longer than 6kb, the recommended extension time is 1 minute per kb (e.g., use 5 minutes to amplify 5kb fragment). Note 4: For initial PCR, the number of cycles can be set to 35 to ensure that the expected PCR product can be amplified. The number of cycles for semi-quantitative or quantitative PCR analysis must be optimized appropriately so that the PCR reaction does not reach a plateau.FAQ:1.Few PCR products or no specific bands.a.It could be due to poor design of primers. Use primer design tools for primer design to avoid inappropriate GC content, secondary structure, dimer, annealing temperature, length, specificity and other possible problems. When adding restriction enzyme cutting sites in the primer sequence, the same problems need to be considered. In the case that positive control primers work normally but not your primers, redesign primers.b.DNA to be amplified may have a high GC content. High GC genes are relatively difficult to be amplified. In such a case, GC-rich buffer suitable for amplifying DNA with high GC content can be used, and PCR reaction parameters should be adjusted accordingly. Direct addition of 1-10% DMSO or 5-20% glycerol is also helpful for amplifying fragments with high GC content.c.PCR reactions set up at room temperature tend to produce non-specific bands. It is recommended to set up PCR reactions on ice.d.The presence of secondary structure in primers, primer dimers or short primers, may result in poor annealing of primers to the target sequence. In this case, try touch down or other methods for annealing. A gradual cooling from 65℃ to 55℃ or 50℃ is usually used to make annealing more efficiently. e.The annealing temperature needs to be optimized. If necessary, use a temperature gradient to determine the optimal annealing temperature for each template-primer pair combination. f.Insufficient extension time. The extension time can be extended 2-5 times from the recommended extension time, and can be set to 5 minutes per 1kb for fragments difficult to amplify. g.Insufficient denaturation. To amplify long DNA or high GC DNA fragment, the initial denaturation temperature can be adjusted to 95℃ for 1 min or even 95℃ for 2-4 min.h.Perform PCR reactions on a different thermal cycler to avoid possible problems with the instrument.i.Insufficient number of PCR cycles. Try more PCR cycles, but do not exceed 40 cycles. j.Insufficient amount of template. Add more DNA templates or try nested PCR or secondary PCR. Nested PCR is to design another pair of PCR primers inside the original PCR primers, and then conduct PCR amplification again with the diluted first PCR product as template. Instead, secondary PCR uses the same primers for second PCR amplification with the diluted PCR product as template. Nested PCR usually can remove the non-specific DNA amplification, but secondary PCR cannot.k.DNA sample contains substances that inhibit the PCR reactions. In such a case, template DNA can be purified using appropriate DNA purification methods such as column purification.l.Use high-purity primers.m.Use high-quality dNTP mixture.n.Increase the amount of DNA polymerase appropriately.o.When non-specific products are produced, increase the annealing temperature appropriately.p.Positive and negative controls are always recommended when optimizing PCR reactions.2.Occurrence of non-specific bands or DNA smear when examined by agarose gel electrophoresis.a.Increase the annealing temperature by 2-5℃.b.Reduce the amount of DNA template.c.PCR reactions set up at room temperature tend to produce non-specific bands. It is recommended to set up PCR reactions on ice.d.Reduce the amount of Plus DNA polymerase appropriately.e.Reduce the extension time appropriately...

C3 is central to the activation of all three pathways of complement activation (Law, S.K.A. and Reid, K.B.M. (1995)). Initiation of each pathway generates proteolytic enzyme complexes (C3 convertases) which are bound to the target surface. These enzymes cleave a peptide bond in C3 releasing the anaphylatoxin C3a and activating C3b. For a brief time (~60 µs) this nascent C3b is capable of reacting with and covalently coupling to hydroxyl groups on the target surface. Carbohydrates are the favored target, but protein hydroxyls and amino groups also react. This process of tagging the target surface with C3b is called opsonization. The reactive site in nascent C3b is a thioester (Tack B.J., et al. (1980); Pangburn M.K. and MüllerEberhard H.J. (1980)) and C3b is linked to the target through a covalent ester bond (an amide bond is formed if C3b is attached to amino groups). Most of the C3 activated during complement activation never attaches to the surface because its thioester reacts with water forming fluid phase C3b which is rapidly inactivated by factors H and I forming iC3b. Surface-bound C3b is necessary in all three pathways for efficient activation of C5 and formation of C5b-9 complexes that lyse the target cell membrane. Surface-bound C3b and its breakdown products iC3b and C3d are recognized by numerous receptors on lymphoid and phagocytic cells which use the C3b ligand to stimulate antigen presentation to cells of the adaptive immune system. The end result is an expansion of target-specific B-cell and T-cell populations.Physical Characteristics & StructureCynomolgus monkey C3 is an uncharacterized protein. The calculated molecular weight based on its amino acid sequence is 184,926 daltons similar to that of human C3 (185,000 daltons). Like human C3, cyno C3 is composed of two disulfide-linked chains. Analysis of purified cyno C3 by SDS/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under non-reduced conditions shows the mobility of cyno C3 to be similar to that of human C3. Under reduced conditions, the migration of the alpha chain of cyno C3 is comparable to that of human C3 alpha chain (110,000 daltons) while the beta chain migrates slightly ahead of the human C3 beta chain (75,000daltons).The extinction coefficient of cyno C3 is calculated from its amino acid sequence using ProtParam and assumes all pairs of Cys residues form cystines (i.e. a pair of cystine molecules are joined by a disulfide bond). The theoretical pI value for cyno monkey C3 is 6.03. Employing immunoturbidimetric method the serum concentration of cyno C3 has been reported to be 1.27 mg/ml in males and 1.1 mg/ml in female monkeys (Park H-K et al., (2016)). FunctionThe biological functions of C3 are described above in the General Description and Physical Characteristics sections.GeneticsCynomolgus monkey C3 chromosome location 19.

It is 393 amino acids (aa) in length with a predicted molecular weight of 44 kDa. It belongs to the p53 family that also includes p63 and p73. Structurally, p53 is characterized by an N-terminal transactivation domain, central DNA-binding and oligomerization domains, and a C-terminal regulatory domain. It is thought to exist as a homotetramer, and it exhibits approximately 72% and 76% aa identity with its mouse and rat orthologs, respectively. Mutations in the p53 gene are one of the most frequent genomic events accompanying oncogenic transformation. p53 responds to signals such as DNA damage or cell stress primarily through its actions as a transcription factor. Among its gene targets are a range factors that promote DNA repair mechanisms or apoptosis, including cell cycle regulatory proteins and members the Bcl-2 family. Because of its critical role in genomic homeostasis, p53 activities are tightly regulated by a network of protein-protein interactions, microRNAs, and a range of post-translational modifications, including phosphorylation, acetylation, methylation, and ubiquitination. A widely studied regulator is Murine Double Minute 2 (MDM2). MDM2 is known to suppress p53 activity through direct binding or through its actions as a Ubiquitin ligase (E3) that catalyzes p53 ubiquitination and proteasome-mediated degradation... Read More |
