    Sequencing PCR problem

    Dear friends,

    I am a new member of this forum. Actually i was thinking about problem with my sequencing PCR. I did successfully this simple experiment many times with various plasmids extracted from E. coli. Recently I need to sequence the new cloned gene but I have NNNNNNN in my sequencing sheet. I changed everything that you may think! but the results are the same.

    It would be really appreciated if somebody shears his/ her experiences with me.

    Thank you in advance,

    M. Dadashi

    Check ur primers of seq pcr. Also check the ur adding the bigdye properly. Hope u wash the seq plate perfectly and not losing pcr product.

    Thanks for your reply,

    I think there is no problem with primers because when i use the same primer with control DNA, the result is OK!

    BigDye or our premix solution is the last component of reaction mixture and after mixing, I spin down it properly.

    About sequencing plate, other people get good results with the same ABI system.

    Is there any probable role for RNA contamination in PCR?


    I don't know well , but now i am purifying the plasmid after extraction by RNase and PEG- NaCl method....


    Thanks a lot,

    Dadashi
