Dear all,
i have just done an experiment on extraction of our own cheek cells DNA and it was primed by the sequence. How can I identify the target DNA sequence that these primers (please find the attach) are priming from the online genbank database?

Thanks!

You can use in silico PCR tool to find the target.

Your primers amplify the following DNA which is the insulin gene

Thanks for your help! I got another problem. The bands from recombinant plasmid are not visible from gel electrophoresis. The marker gene is able to show its bands. Is it the invisible band most probably due to contamination of the samples? Should I load the samples and run another gel again?Thanks!

So you can't see the plasmid on a DNA based gel, but the ladders are visible?

If so - how did you prepare the plasmid DNA and how much DNA did you run on the gel?
