I am a recentlly arrived pos- doc in a lab. and while considering to analyse some Drosophila mutants, I thought about using PCR and the Elongase Kit for amplification of long fragments would be very much suitable, and indeed we have the kit here in our lab., but the protocol that comes together has been lost. Can anybody, please help me with some information of which of the three buffers to use and the conditions of annealing/time, elongation/time and so on ? Dr. Mozart Marins .
