Suppression subtractive hybridization: a method for generating differentially regulated or tissue-specific cDNA probes and libraries.

Suppression subtractive hybridization: a method for generating differentially regulated or tissue-specific cDNA probes and libraries.

A new and highly effective method, termed suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH), has been developed for the generation of subtracted cDNA libraries. It is based primarily on a recently described technique called suppression PCR and combines normalization and subtraction in a single procedure. The normalization step equalizes the abundance of cDNAs within the target population and the subt...

Subtractive hybridization and construction of cDNA libraries.

Prokaryotic suppression subtractive hybridization PCR cDNA subtraction, a targeted method to identify differentially expressed genes.

Molecular biology tools can be used to monitor and optimize biological treatment systems, but the application of nucleic acid-based tools has been hindered by the lack of available sequences for environmentally relevant biodegradation genes. The objective of our work was to extend an existing molecular method for eukaryotes to prokaryotes, allowing us to rapidly identify differentially expresse...

A method for generating subtractive cDNA libraries retaining clones containing repetitive elements.

Here we describe a two-stepped photobiotin-based procedure to enrich a target (canine retinal) cDNA library for tissue specific clones without removing those containing repetitive ( SINE ) elements, despite the presence of these elements in the driver population. In a first hybridization excess SINE elements were hybridized to a driver (canine cerebellar) cDNA. In a second hybridization target ...

Microarray screening of suppression subtractive hybridization-PCR cDNA libraries identifies novel RNAs regulated by dehydration in the rat supraoptic nucleus.

The magnocellular neurons (MCNs) of the supraoptic nucleus (SON) and paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus are the principal site of biosynthesis of prepropeptide precursor of the antidiuretic hormone vasopressin (VP). This precursor is processed during anterograde axonal transportation to terminals in the posterior pituitary gland, where biologically active VP is stored until relea...
