Effect of Single Mismatches at 3′–end of Primers on Polymerase Chain Reaction
Objective and Method – To investigate the effect of three different mismatches (G/T, G/A or G/G) at the 3•– end of a primer to amplify a 268 bp (base pair) region of the human •–globin gene using different annealing temperatures (45 to 65•C). Results – The primer with the G/T mismatch was as efficient as the normal pri …
