<a class="collapsed" data-toggle="collapse" data-parent="#accordion1" href="#accordion-group4">OVERLAP PCR</a>

OVERLAP PCR:

order two primers which are complements of one another.
These primers will each have a 60°C Tm with one part and a 60°C Tm with the other part.
The "end primers" will not have any complements and will likely only have restriction sites.
PCR amplify the necessary fragments separately. Use a proofreading polymerase enzyme. Use an annealing temp of 60°C.
Clean up the product using a DNA column.
"Overlap PCR" Use cleaned up fragments as template in a PCR reaction:
About 1/2 to 3/4 volume of the Overlap PCR reaction should be equimolar amounts of purified fragments. Do not use Phusion polymerase. Try Pfu Turbo. Do not add any primers; the templates will prime each-other. 3.Run 15 PCR cycles without primers.Use an annealing temp of 60°C.
Add end primers to the Overlap PCR reaction: Continue cycling for another 15-20 rounds. Use an annealing temp of 72°C
Gel extract the correct size fragment.

Incubate at 50°C for 30 min.
Centrifuge the sample for 1 min.
Carefully remove the supernatant using a pipet or a drawn-out Pasteur pipet. Pass thesupernatant through a disposable plastic column or a syringe containing either aWhatman GF/C filter or packed, siliconized glass wool to remove any residualpolyacrylamide.
Determine the volume of the recovered supernatant.
Add 3 volumes of Buffer QG to 1 volume of supernatant and mix. Check that the col or of the mixture is yellow.
Place a QIAquick Spin Column in a provided 2 ml collection tube.
To bind DNA, apply the sample to the QIAquick Spin Column and centrifuge for30– 60 s.
Discard flow-through and place QIAquick Spin Column back into the same collection tube.
To wash, add 0.75 ml Buffer PE to column and centrifuge for 30–60 s.
Discard flow-through and place QIAquick Spin Column back in the same tube. Centrifuge column for an additional 1 min at maximum speed.
Place QIAquick Spin Column into a clean 1.5 ml microcentrifuge tube.
To elute DNA, add 50 µl Buffer EB (10 mM Tris·Cl, pH 8.5) or water to the center of t he QIAquick Spin Column and centrifuge for 1 min.

Centrifuge at maximum speed (≥13,000 x g) for 10 minutes. A compact white pellet will form. Promptly proceed to the next step.
Insert a HiBind® DNA Mini Column into a 2 mL Collection Tube.
Transfer the cleared supernatant from Step 5 by CAREFULLY aspirating it into the HiBind® DNA Mini Column. Be careful not to disturb the pellet and that no cellular debris is transferred to the HiBind® DNA Mini Column.
Centrifuge at 10000g speed for 1 minute.
Discard the filtrate and reuse the collection tube.
Add 500 µL HB Buffer.
Centrifuge at 10000g speed for 1 min.
