Any one using mPNA and pPNA clamps for metagenomics studies?

10 December 2019 1 4K Report

I am interested in doing microbial diversity analysis associated with a plant. I was looking for PNA clamps suppliers who can provide me mitochondrial PNA and plastid PNAs. Let me know if anyone has used it in their experiments or if someone can provide me as a courtesy.

Thanks in advance.

I have been using them many times when working with grapevine-associated microbiome. As a rule of thumb I would check before-hand if they match the specific target you want to prevent and then they should work quite well. Only recently I had problems with wheat mitochondrial DNA and so far I have not had any luck using mPNA
