Hello everybody,

I need to isolate specific fragments from a RACE (Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends) reaction. Classic RACE reactions work similarly to PCR reactions, the drawback is the great amount of aspecific products that usually appear as a smear when run in an agarose gel. I would like to know if anybody knows a method to specifically precipitate (through hybridization) the specific products (alternatively I could extract them from an agarose gel, if recognizable). I would like to proceed so:
1 RACE reaction
2 hybridization with a specific DNA oligonucleotide( I already have it because of other purposes)
3 product identification and isolation

Does anybody have any idea (or protocol)?
