can any one help me in suggesting that what mistake i have did in my mutagenic pcr . actually my problem is my primer annealing temperature is 81degree. im using phusion pol enzyme. i have made many trial, i.e., made annealing at 68 and then followed 2 step pcr method and then added 1micro lit

Phusion requires that the primers are phosphorylated for mutagensis to work, unlike Pfu. If you cannot phosphorylate them use Pfu as recommended by Charlotte Dan
