The taq polymerase synthesises a complementary DNA strand using the PCR primers and template as a guide. At this point the fluorescent dye of the probe is quenched by the MGB-Eclipse quencher.įigure 1: Gene Expression analysis (click to enlarge)īy decreasing the temperature the PCR primers and MGB probe anneal to their specific target sequence. Allelic discrimination is achieved by the selective annealing of the MGB probes (Figure 2). The double-stranded DNA is denatured by raising the temperature. MGB Probes for gene expression analysis & SNP genotyping It is therefore possible to use shorter probes (down to 13 bases) in real-time PCR compared to conventional dual labelled probes. Probes containing a MGB molecule form an extremely stable duplex which gives the probe a significant increase of the melting temperature (T m).
