3 COMPONENTS OF THE KIT The solutions included in the Thermo Sequenase™ Radiolabeled Terminator Cycle Sequencing Kit have been carefully prepared to yield the best possible sequencing results. Each reagent has been tested extensively and its concentration adjusted to meet USB™ standards.
4 Redivue nucleotides can be stored at 4 ° C for up to 1 week after receipt, or at a constant -20 ° C if longer storage is desired. Care must be taken to prevent evaporation of these small volumes of material. Tightly cap the vials after use. Store at -20 ° C between uses if frequency of use is less than every 1-3 days.
5 INTRODUCTION This sequencing kit combines two revolutionary innovations for sequencing DNA using radioactive labels. First, the label is incorporated into the DNA sequencing reaction products by the use of four [ α - 33 P]dideoxynucleotide (ddNTP) terminators (G,A,T,C).
6 Chain termination sequencing This kit is designed to eliminate sequencing artifacts such as stops (or BAFLs— bands across four lanes) and background bands.
7 uses dideoxynucleoside triphosphates, generating uniform band intensities in sequencing experiments (with dGTP). These properties make the enzyme ideal for generating high-quality DNA sequences using cycle-sequencing methods. It is stable at 90 ° C for at least 1 hour and retains 50% of its activity when incubated at 95 ° C for 60 minutes.
8 MA TERIALS NO T SUPPLIED Necessary reagents: Water —Only deionized, distilled water should be used for the sequencing reactions. Specialized sequencing primers —Some sequencing projects will require the use of primers which are specific to the project.
9 PRO T OCOL 1. Termination mixes —Prepare the termination mixes on ice. Mix 2 µ l of Nucleotide Master Mix (either dGTP or dITP—see note below) and 0.5 µ l of [ α - 33 P]ddNTP (G, A, T, or C—one of each per sequence) to produce a termination mix for each ddNTP.
10 3. Cycling termination reactions Transfer 4.5 µ l of reaction mixture (prepared in step 2) to each termination tube (‘G’, ‘A’, ‘T’ and ‘C’) from step 1. Mix well and overlay with 10-20 µ l of mineral oil (if needed). Cap and place the tube in the thermal cycling instrument.
11 SUPPLEMENT AR Y INFORMA TION General guidelines • Since the popular multiple cloning sites all derive from similar sequences, one primer can serve for the sequencing of insert DNA in most of the common vectors.
12 Preparation of template DNA Since cycle sequencing can be performed using very little template DNA, only very small amounts of detrimental impurities are likely to be carried along with the DNA. Therefore, though still important, template purity may not be as crucial for cycle sequencing as it is for non-cycle sequencing.
13 As another example, when using the universal -40 17-mer, which has a melting temperature of about 50 ° C, cycling between 45 ° C and 95 ° C is effective. If in doubt, choose a wide temperature range with pauses (15-30 seconds) at the extremes of temperature.
14 0.5pmol 1pmol 2pmol 8pmol 300 bases 150 bases Figure 1 . Excess template DNA can reduce sequence extension lengths. In cases where 2pmol or more template DNA are sequenced, the supply of nucleotides can be exhausted before extensions reach suitable length for optimal sequencing.
15 Sequencing PCR Pr oducts The products of Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) can have structures which make them difficult to sequence. One of the most common problems associated with sequencing of PCR.
16 A suitable nucleotide mixture containing dITP is included in the kit for use with templates prone to gel compression artifacts. To use dITP simply substitute the dITP Nucleotide Mix for the dGTP Nucleotide Mix.
17 Figure 3. Use of dITP requires longer extension times at 60 ° C. Shown are four sequences of plasmid pUC18 obtained using cycles with 1, 4, 10 and 20 minute extension steps in the cycles. Extension steps of 4-5 minutes or longer are necessary for reading beyond 200 bases.
18 by 50%, thus increasing the average extension length of each primer before a ddNTP is incorporated. Conversely, adding 1 µ l of [ α - 33 P]ddNTP will decrease the ratio by 50%, thus decreasing the average extension length of each primer.
19 dilute—approximately 0.8X strength. Be certain to run glycerol tolerant gels at the same power (wattage) as TBE-buffered gels so the gel temperature is normal. 10X TBE Buffer (70454) Tris base 108g Boric acid 55g Na 2 EDTA . 2H 2 O 9.3g H 2 O to 1000ml, filter (may be autoclaved) This is the traditional sequencing gel buffer.
20 General guidelines for electrophoresis 1. Ultrapure or electrophoresis grade reagents should be used. 2. Sequencing gels should be made fresh. Store solutions no longer than one week in the dark at 4 ° C.
21 than 1pmol of template DNA for each sequence (0.25pmol per reaction). See figure 1. 3. G-C rich template producing strong secondary structure. Try less DNA, longer extension times, more cycles, more enzyme, 5% DMSO, or a 96 ° C denaturation temperature.
22 spaced, a compression artifact is indicated. Try using the dITP reaction mixture or a formamide gel. Bands in 2 or 3 lanes 1. Heterogeneous template DNA (2 bands) caused by spontaneous deletions arising during M13 phage growth. Try control DNA and limit phage growth to less than 6-8 hours.
