Why do I get a PCR band of the wrong size after cloning, though restriction digestion confirms the presence of the gene?

I cloned a 4.2 kb gene in a vector. Restriction digestion confirmed the presence of the insert. When I carried out PCR with the primers of the gene I get a band but its only 3 kb. How is it...

Why can some DNA fragments/genes only be amplified by high-fidelity polymerases and not by Taq?

Using phusion polymerase I get amplification but when I try using Taq I get no results.

Is a difference in the mRNA level of genes expressed from the same operon possible?

I have cloned 2 genes from a bacterial operon into another bacteria. When i studied the level of mRNA of the two genes, I noticed a difference. The 2nd gene expression was higher than the first....

Will the genes of an operon be expressed differentially?

All genes in an operon are under the control of the same promoter, so will there be difference in the expression of the genes? Are there any reports on this?

Can you connect an HPLC to a Mass Spec only at a certain time point?

Can anyone explain this method? Especially the last statement where it says only at 1.5 to 2.5mins was the MS/MS connected to the UPLC. How is that possible, is it a feature in this specific...

Dr (Professor) Biswajit Sinha

Earthworms are found in altitude areas. In fact, they support the vegetations that are grown in these areas. Reduced temperature, soil depth along with loss of moisture pose a significant challenges for their survival. Nevertheless, they are found in this extremely harsh environment.

Hmar Lalthanzara

Thank you Professor Sinha

Can you please share papers relating to high altitudinal distribution/record of earthworms.

John Warren Reynolds

Hmar:

Here is a paper which might help.
