Human Leukocyte QUICK-Clone cDNA
Human Leukocyte QUICK-Clone cDNA
A high-quality cDNA template is necessary to obtain good results from PCR amplification. QUICK-Clone cDNA is premade, double-stranded cDNA from which you can amplify sequences of interest using gene-specific primers, and is ideal for amplifying previously isolated, structurally related, or cross-species cDNAs. Synthesized from premium, high-quality poly A+ RNA from human leukocytes using an oligo(dT) primer, QUICK-Clone cDNA is purified to remove residual RNA and size-selected to eliminate cDNA fragments smaller than 400 bp. QUICK-Clone cDNA allows you to amplify cDNAs of interest while avoiding traditional library construction and screening steps, and can also be used to generate hybridization probes using gene-specific or degenerate primers (Parmentier et al. 1989; Wilks et al. 1989; Vallins et al. 1990; Lee et al. 1988; Schuchman, Jackson, and Desnick 1990).

- Ideal for amplifying previously isolated, structurally related, or cross-species cDNAs
Applications
- Clone cDNAs without library screening
- Generate hybridization probes using gene-specific or degenerate primers
- Ideal for amplifying previously isolated, structurally related, or cross-species cDNAs
PCR amplification of the full coding region from human TFR mRNA
PCR amplification of the full coding region from human TFR mRNA. PCR-amplified QUICK-Clone Human Heart cDNA (Cat. # 637213) was digested with restriction enzymes to verify amplification of the complete coding region of the human TFR gene. Lane 1: no restriction enzyme. Lane 2: Hind III. Lane 3: Hpa I. Lane M1: λ/Hind III DNA size marker. Lane M2: ΦX174/Hae III DNA size marker.
QUICK-Clone II Human Universal cDNA is an optimized mixture of over 30 QUICK-Clone cDNAs from normal human tissues
QUICK-Clone II Human Universal cDNA is an optimized mixture of over 30 QUICK-Clone cDNAs from normal human tissues. (The exact number may vary based on tissue availability.) It has been specially formulated for the amplification of full-length cDNAs representing the majority of human genes.
