Quantification of mRNA in whole blood by assessing recovery of RNA and efficiency of cDNA synthesis.
BACKGROUND Current gene expression analysis relies on the assumption that the isolated RNA represents all species of mRNA in proportions equal to those in the original materials. No system is available for absolute quantification of mRNA. METHODS We applied whole blood to 96-well filterplates to trap leukocytes. Lysis buffer containing cocktails of specific reverse primers and known concentra...
متن کاملGeneration of multiple mRNA fingerprints using fluorescence-based differential display and an automated DNA sequencer.
Differential display is a method for the survey, analysis and comparison of gene expression in eukaryotic cells and tissues. Differential display involves isolation of high-quality nondegraded RNA, selective reverse transcription of polyadenylated mRNA using specific anchored oligopolydeoxythymidine [oligo(dT)] primers, and the subsequent PCR amplification of the cDNA with the same oligo(dT), a...
متن کاملDirect reverse transcription-PCR on oligo(dT)-immobilized polypropylene microplates after capturing total mRNA from crude cell lysates.
To simplify gene expression analysis, oligo(dT)-immobilized polypropylene microplates were used serially to capture mRNA, synthesize cDNA, and amplify specific genes. The amounts of immobilized oligonucleotide, hybridized mRNA, and synthesized cDNA were quantified fluorometrically using either Yoyo-1 or AttoPhos. The immobilized oligonucleotides captured approximately 40-55% of mRNA directly fr...
متن کاملRepresentative in Vitro cDNA Amplification From Individual Hemopoietic Cells and Colonies
A simple procedure is described for preparing microgram amounfs of cDNA, suitable for cloning into libraries, from samples as small as a single cell. Synthesis of cDNA is primed with oligo(dT) and the resulting strands are tailed with poly(dA). The cDNA is then amplified using an oligo(dT)-containing sequence to prime the polymerase chain reaction. By limiting the size of the first cDNA strands...
متن کاملAssessment of RNA quality by semi-quantitative RT-PCR of multiple regions of a long ubiquitous mRNA.
A simple method to assess the degree of degradation present in a total RNA preparation from cells or tissues is based on the increasing probability of RNA cleavage with increasing length of an RNA molecule. Under ideal conditions, reverse transcription of a particular mRNA species with oligo-dT as the primer generates a population of cDNAs, terminating at the 5' end of the mRNA if all template ...
