Description: HighFidelity YELLOW PCR Labeling Testkit is designed to produce randomly Cy3- and AF555-modified DNA probes by PCR to find the optimal label for the yellow emission wavelength range. Such probes are ideally suited for Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and Northern Blot experiments. PCR-based labeling is superior to random-primed labeling with Klenow fragment if template amounts are limited or amplification of a specific DNA fragments is required. Amplification of probes up to 4kbp is feasible. All labeled-dUTP are efficiently incorporated into DNA as substitute for its natural counterpart dTTP using an optimized reaction buffer and a High Fidelity Polymerase blend consisting of Taq polymerase and a proofreading enzyme. 50 % labeled-dUTP substitution typically results in an optimal balance between reaction and labeling efficiency. Individual optimization of labeled-dUTP/dTTP ratio however, can easily be achieved with the single nucleotide format.
