Abstract excerpt
Based on PCR with complementary primer pairs and Pfu DNA polymerase, QuickChange site-directed mutagenesis has been widely employed, but its efficiency varies from mutation to mutation. An alternative strategy relies on partially overlapping primer pairs with 3'-overhangs, and this strategy has led to the recent development of P3a and P3b site-directed mutagenesis, in which the use of SuperFi II and Q5...
