Dye coupling
- Noi did the amplification and prepared single-stranded probes.
- 1mL of nuclease free water was added to the Labeling Buffer tube containing sodium bicarbonate. The tube was placed on the Eppendorf thermal shaker at 37C for ~20 min.
- Each vial of dye was resuspended in 2ul DMSO.
- I took 2.5ul of DNA, add 1.5ul of Labeling buffer, then 1ul of dyes. I wasn't able to pipette the exact volume of the dyes due to inexperience and pipetting error.
Probe IDs | Conc. (ng/ul) | Total amount in 2.5ul (ug) | Dye |
#1-V4 | 278.49 | 0.70 | Alexa-546 |
#2-V4 | 432.8 | 1.08 | Alexa-488 |
#3-V4 | 359.76 | 0.90 | Alexa-594 |
#4-V4 | 438.99 | 1.10 | Alexa-647 |
#1-V6 | 425.3 | 1.06 | Alexa-546 |
#2-V6 | 427.85 | 1.07 | Alexa-488 |
#3-V6 | 426.04 | 1.07 | Alexa-594 |
#4-V6 | 306.88 | 0.77 | Alexa-647 |
- The reaction mixes were incubated at room temperature in dark for 1 hour.
- The labeled probes were purified individually with Zymo DNA Concentrator-5 columns.
- Four subsets of V4 probes were pooled in one tube, four other subsets for V6 probes were pooled in another tube.
