Product information
Historically, there was a limited selection of dyes available for multiplex PCR: TET, JOE, VIC™, HEX, Texas Red®, Cy™ 3, and Cy™ 5. In recent years, the selection and quality of reporters and quenchers has dramatically improved. LGC, Biosearch Technologies has developed the CAL Fluor Dyes, a set of fluorescent dyes specifically designed for qPCR instruments. These novel xanthene fluorophores not only replicate the applicability of previous dyes, they have further unique patented features. These dyes can be efficiently manufactured and remain stable through oligo synthesis and work up. The attachment chemistry linking the CAL Fluor Dyes to biomolecules eliminates the problem of multiple isomers. This results in dye labels that are easier to manufacture, have a single RP-HPLC peak and have well-defined emission spectra. CAL Fluor Dyes are available as CPGs and as phosphoramidites for oligonucleotide synthesis, which results in more efficient label incorporation and fewer purification steps than post-synthesis labeling. The CAL Fluor Dyes have emission maxima from 544 nm to 637 nm and can be paired with BHQ-1 or BHQ-2 for efficient quenching in a variety of probe formats. Multiplex suggestions and PCR instrument compatibility of CAL Fluor Dyes can be found here. Carboxylic acids of the CAL Fluor Dyes 560, 590, and 610 are available to use for peptide labelling.

Procedure. The peptide resin, 20mg, is placed in a syringe reactor (2ml polypro with coarse PE end frit), and the resin swollen in DMF. The dye (10mg) and HOAt (10mg) are placed in a screw capped 1.5 ml vial are treated with 110µL of freshly prepared DIPCDI solution, the vial sealed, and vortexed vigorously for 2 minutes. The dye solution is then diluted with DMF (200µL), mixed and admitted to the reactor. This is covered with foil and shaken overnight. The resin is washed 5x with DMF, treated 1x1 min with 30% piperidine in DMF, washed further with DMF (at least 5x) until no color in washes, washed 5x methanol, and all solvent expelled from syringe. Cleavage reagent (95%TFA/5% H20 made up under argon, 1.5 mL) is admitted to the syringe, which is shaken for 90 minutes. The TFA solution is then expelled into a 20mL glass scintillation vial and evaporated. The residue is dried in vacuo over KOH pellets. The product is analyzed by standard C-18 analytical HPLC in TFA/acetonitrile buffers with a PDA detector.Hazards This procedure, as do all peptide synthesis protocols, involves handling many dangerous, toxic, corrosive, irritant and poisonous chemicals. It should only be performed by a very experienced chemist in a well equipped laboratory fume hood with all possible caution. All waste should be disposed of according to safe laboratory procedures. Particular note should be made of the fact that HOAt is rated as being potentially explosive, it should be handled with care avoiding shock, heat or static electricity.
