Protocol to Retrieve Unknown Flanking DNA Using Fork PCR for Genome Walking by Hongjing Wu, Hao Pan, Haixing Li

“…In primary fork PCR, the low-annealing temperature (25 °C) cycle allows the primary fork primer to anneal to many sites of the genome, synthesizing a cluster of single-stranded DNAs; the subsequent 65 °C cycle processes the target single-strand into double-strand via the site-specific primer; then, the remaining 65 °C cycles selectively enrich this target DNA. …”
