What does TaqMan probe do?

TaqMan® Gene Expression Assays are based on 5′ nuclease chemistry, which uses a fluorogenic probe to enable the detection of a specific PCR product as it accumulates during PCR.

How does a 5 ‘- nuclease assay TaqMan assay work?

The 5′-nuclease (TaqMan) assay is a robust single nucleotide polymorphism genotyping method where an allele-specific probe that binds to a perfectly complementary target is cleaved by the 5′-nuclease activity of Taq DNA polymerase.

What is MGB TaqMan?

Applied Biosystems TaqMan MGB (minor groove binder) probes are dual-labeled probes used for real-time PCR applications using TaqMan chemistry. TaqMan MGB Probes incorporate a 5′ fluorescent reporter dye and a 3′ nonfluorescent quencher (NFQ).

What is FAM in real-time PCR?

Applied Biosystems TaqMan Gene Expression assays are used for quantitative real-time PCR analysis of gene expression and consist of a pair of unlabeled PCR primers and a TaqMan probe with a dye label (FAM) on the 5′ end and a minor groove binder (MGB) and non-fluorescent quencher (NFQ) on the 3′ end.

What is the 5 nuclease assay?

The fluorogenic 5′ nuclease assay is a convenient, self-contained amplification process. The assay uses a fluorogenic probe consisting of an oligonucleotide to which a fluorogenic reporter dye and a non-fluorescent Black Hole Quencher Dye are attached.

Is MGB a quencher?

Custom Applied Biosystems™ TaqMan® MGB (minor groove binder) probes incorporate a 5′ reporter and a 3′ nonfluorescent quencher (NFQ).

What is the advantage of using an MGB probe?

Probes containing a MGB molecule form an extremely stable duplex which gives the probe a significant increase of the melting temperature (Tm). It is therefore possible to use shorter probes (down to 13 bases) in real-time PCR compared to conventional dual labelled probes.

How does TaqMan SNP genotyping work?

The TaqMan® SNP genotyping technology utilizes the 5′ nuclease activity of Taq polymerase to generate a fluorescent signal during PCR. For each SNP, the assay uses two TaqMan® probes that differ in sequence only at the SNP site, with one probe complementary to the wild-type allele and the other to the variant allele.
