Overview

Confidently count your PiggyBac inserts

When you need to know how many PiggyBac integration events have happened, turn to SBI’s PiggyBac qPCR Copy Number Kit. This kit uses qPCR to measure the number of PiggyBac inserts relative to a specific genomic locus—the UCR1 element—with the PiggyBac insert copy number calculated using the cycle threshold (Ct) values of the UCR1 signal relative to the PiggyBac insert signal.

The PiggyBac qPCR Copy Number Kit comes with enough reagents—UCR1 primers, PiggyBac primers, and cell lysis buffer—for twenty copy number determinations, and is compatible with all of SBI’s PiggyBac Vectors.

NOTE: Your cells must be passaged at least once before performing this copy number measurement to ensure that residual, non-integrated piggyBac transposon plasmid does not interfere with the qPCR reaction.

How It Works

Calculate PiggyBac insert copy number

The PiggyBac qPCR Copy Number Kit provides robust PiggyBac insert copy number determination. To calculate the PiggyBac insert copy number from the Ct values:

  1. Calculate the average Cts for the PiggyBac inserts and for the UCR1 loci (there are two UCR1 elements per genome)
  2. The copy number is the ΔΔCt/2—the ΔΔCt value must be divided by two to account for the two UCR1 elements:

ΔΔCt = 2-((average PiggyBac insert Ct) – (average UCR1 Ct))
PiggyBac insert copy number = ΔΔCt/2

You can change the number of PiggyBac insertions by adjusting the ratio of PiggyBac Vector to Super PiggyBac Transposase Expression Vector (Cat.# PB210PA-1).
