Applied Biosystems Custom TaqMan Gene Expression assays are the custom version of our predesigned TaqMan assays for quantitative real-time PCR. The Custom TaqMan Gene Expression assays consist of a pair of unlabeled PCR primers and a TaqMan probe with a dye label (FAM) on the 5’ end and a minor groove binder (MGB) and nonfluorescent quencher (NFQ) on the 3’ end.

Features include:
• Easy to use—just add cDNA and master mix and run the qPCR—no melt curves required
• Specific—TaqMan assays use proprietary MGB-containing probes that can be up to 15 bases shorter than non-MGB probes, improving the specificity of the assay
• Sensitive—TaqMan assays are ideal for measuring low levels of expression or low-abundance targets
• Accurate—identify small fold-changes with high accuracy of quantitation
• Gold-standard TaqMan qPCR chemistry—TaqMan assays draw on Thermo Fisher Scientific's bioinformatics assay design pipeline to help ensure high specificity and minimal cross-reactivity, even for gene variants with high sequence homology
• Sequences provided with every Custom TaqMan Gene Expression Assay you design and order

Approximate ship time
Made to order: 4–6 days in North America, 4–8 days in Europe

Pre-formulated assay
• 2 unlabeled PCR primers (900 nM each final 1X concentration)
• 1 FAM dye-labeled TaqMan MGB probe (250 nM final 1X concentration)

TaqMan Gene Expression assays are the gold standard in real-time PCR gene expression studies, built on more than 20 years of experience. Each assay includes target primers and a sequence-specific probe optimized for the best functional performance. No additional design, optimization, or melt curve analysis is needed. Available in a wide variety of formats and species, new assay designs are constantly added to help meet your research needs. TaqMan assays have been cited in over 40,000 publications and are backed by more than 350 patents.

Recommended master mix: TaqMan Fast Advanced Master Mix

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

What is the bookmarking feature in the TaqMan Genotyper Software, and how would I use it?

Bookmarking is a unique feature in TaqMan Genotyper Software that allows you to tag a data point or well while reviewing results in a Study. For example, in reviewing a cluster plot for an assay, a data point is observed to be somewhat between clusters. You can set a bookmark for this data point to denote this well for further investigation. The bookmark persists between the Results workspace and Quality Control workspace, so you can easily identify the data point in a cluster plot, experiment plate view, or on the samples tab. Bookmarks are cleared upon exit from a Study or exit from the application.

I am getting the message: "An error has occurred. See the log file C:\ProgramFiles\Applied Biosystems\TaqMan Genotyper\config\eclipse\1363113099385.log." How can I fix this?

1.Go to the Start button, then Programs, then TaqMan Genotyper Software
2.Right-click on the program and choose “Run as Administrator”
3.If that does not work, go back to the same menu and choose “Properties”
4.Choose the “Compatibility” tab, and check “Run this program as administrator”
5.Click “Apply”
6.You may+C69 have to restart the computer for the settings to apply

Can I check the end product of a TaqMan Gene Expression Assay by running an agarose gel?

Yes, you can check the end product on an agarose gel. If you use the TaqMan Universal PCR Master Mix (including AmpErase UNG, Cat. No. 4304437), we recommend running the gel immediately after the PCR, since the trace amount of AmpErase UNG may digest the end product that contains double-stranded DNA with dUTP incorporated. The average length of amplicon ranges from 50-150 bp. The exact amplicon length is indicated on the detailed page of each assay on our website. You can get to that page by clicking on the Assay ID; the amplicon information is listed in the section "Assay Details".

Can I set up and store the TaqMan Fast Universal PCR Master Mix at room temperature if the instrument is in use?

For optimal results, we recommend to run the reaction plate right after setting up the reaction. If a reaction plate cannot be run within 2 hours of completing the reaction setup, then freeze/refrigerate the reaction plate until it can be loaded and run on the fast PCR instrument platform.

Can I run a reaction made with the standard TaqMan Universal PCR Master Mix in fast thermal cycling mode?

No, we do not recommend this approach. Since the standard TaqMan Universal PCR Master Mix is not optimized for running with fast thermal cycling, assay results will be significantly compromised.
