All PCR amplifications were performed with Phusion Green Hot Start II High-Fidelity DNA
Polymerase (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, U.S.A.) according to the manufacturer’s
instructions. Briefly, the PCR reactions were carried out using 30 ng of
genomic DNA in a final volume of 20 µl, containing 1 U Phusion DNA
polymerase, 0.2 mM dNTP, 0.5 nM gene-specific primers, and 3% volume DMSO under the
following conditions: denaturing at 98°C for 30 sec, 35 cycles at 98°C for 10 sec, 70°C
for 30 sec, 70°C for 30 sec per kilobase (kb), followed by an extended elongation at 72°C
for 10 min. The PCR products were analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis. The amplicons
were purified using the innuPREP PCRpure kit (Analytik Jena AG, Jena, Germany), and then
sequenced at Fasmac Co., Ltd. (Atsugi, Japan). The sequences of primers used for
successful amplification of EBLs are listed in Table S1. The other primer sequences
(negative for PCR or sequencing primers) are available upon request. The determined
sequences were deposited in DDBJ (accession numbers LC378417-LC378424).

The amplification mix was as follows: 25 ng of genomic DNA as a template, 0.02 U/μL of Phusion Green HotStart II High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), 0.5 μM of each primer (Table S1A), and 200 μM of each dNTP. The PCR reactions were performed following the conditions already reported in Palmieri et al. [11 (link)]. The generated amplicons were confirmed by sequencing at Eurofins Genomics (Ebersberg, Germany). The 645 bp sodAp and 636 bp sodSs products were subcloned into the blunt end pSC-B-amp/kan vector using the StrataClone PCR Cloning Kit (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA) and the sequence verification of the final constructs was carried out (Figure S1A,B).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
