QuantStudio™ 12K Flex OpenArray™ Block RNase P Kit

RNase P is a single-copy gene encoding the RNA moiety for the RNase P enzyme, and it is an excellent gene to use as a reference/control for Copy Number Variation (CNV) assays. The TaqMan RNase P Detection Reagents Kit contains a 20X mix of primers and probe (FAM dye-labeled) that will detect and quantitate genomic copies of the human RNase P gene. The primers and probe are designed according to TaqMan chemistry guidelines for quantitation, and utilize the universal thermal cycling parameters. This kit is used to perform a 5' nuclease assay with TaqMan Universal PCR Master Mix (Cat. No. 4304437) or the TaqMan Core PCR Reagents Kit (Cat. No. N808-0228) with genomic, plasmid or complementary DNA (cDNA) templates.

The complete components of the TaqMan RNase P Detection Reagents Kit, Cat. No. 4316831, are: 20X RNase P Primer-Probe (FAM/TAMRA probe) Mix, 1 tube Human Genomic Control DNA, 10 ng/ul (100 ul), and the Product Insert with an overview and procedure for the use of the kit.
