Applications of BBa_K2973016

In our project, this primer (BBa_K2973016) was used along with its reverse primer (BBa_K2973017) for the amplification reactions of the IS6110 gene (Part:BBa_K2973009) that was used as a biomarker, in order to perform isothermal amplification reactions with Recombinase Polymerase Amplification (RPA). Using this method, we were able to detect quantities as low as 10 to the minus 9 nanograms in reaction times ranging from five to 20 minutes. These primers include 5' overhangs ( a T7 promoter and a trigger sequence) to allow for transcription by a T7 RNA Polymerase and translation by a toehold-switch regulated system encoding for a reporter gene (BBa_K2973007). The expected amplified product length is 136 bp.
