I am trying to PCR amplify the complete mRNA (from first ATG to 3'UTR) from a human gene using genomic DNA. The total fragment has 3296 bp. I need the fragment to be until the end of the 3'UTR as this is where a SNP of interest is. My intention is to clone this fragment into a plasmid to do functional experiments. The fragment has 53.4% GC. I have tried to order the primers twice now in case there was something wrong with them.
I have tried the following enzymes:
- Bioline Immolase
- Bioline MyTaqHS
- KAPA2G Robust PCR kit and KAPA2G Robust HotStart (with both buffers A and B, enhancer...)
All these enzymes should be fine for fragments
