Descripción

General description

The MgCl₂ Stock Solution is used for the individual adjustment of the Mg²⁺-concentration in the PCR reaction and can be used in combination with the PCR buffer without MgCl₂. In most applications a concentration of 1.5mM MgCl₂ will yield satisfactory results with a dNTP concentration of 200μM each. In many cases, however, it is required to titrate the optimal Mg²⁺ concentration to increase the specificity and the yield of the PCR reaction.

Application

The combination of PCR Buffer without MgCl₂ and the MgCl₂ Stock Solution buffer are optimized for the amplification of specific DNA fragments in conventional PCRs (i.e., with Taq DNA Polymerase). However, the MgCl₂ Stock Solution may be used with other, more appropriate PCR buffers to optimize any type of PCR (e.g., hot start PCR, high fidelity PCR, long template PCR).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Magnesium (Mg²⁺) chelates nucleotide triphosphates (dNTPs) and its usage is one among the optimization strategies for polymerase chain reaction (PCR).[1] It promotes orthophosphate synthesis from oligophosphates by stabilizing the phosphate groups of nucleotides.[2]

Physical form

The MgCl₂ Stock Solution contains 25mM MgCl₂ in sterile water.
