Real Time RT-PCR

66.0K
Real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, or Real-time RT-PCR, is an analytical tool used to determine the expression level of target genes. The method involves converting mRNA to complementary DNA with the help of an enzyme known as reverse transcriptase, followed by the PCR amplification of the cDNA. These two processes can be performed simultaneously in a single tube or separately as a two-step reaction.
The real-time quantification of the number of amplified products is...

RACE - Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends

7.5K
Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends, or RACE, is one of the most effective methods to obtain a full-length cDNA from an mRNA sequence between a known internal region to the unknown sequence at the 5’ or 3’ end. The unknown region is cloned in the cDNA by a gene-specific primer that binds the known end, and a hybrid primer that attaches a predefined anchor sequence to the unknown end of the cDNA. The sequence in between is amplified by PCR with an anchor primer and a gene-specific...

Area of Science:

  • Biochemistry
  • Molecular Biology
  • Synthetic Biology

Background:

  • Modified nucleoside triphosphates (dN*TPs) are key for incorporating chemical diversity into nucleic acids.
  • Their compatibility with isothermal amplification, like rolling circle amplification (RCA), remains underexplored.
  • RCA is crucial for biosensors, diagnostics, and potential drug delivery systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the synthesis of modified DNA products using dN*TPs via RCA.
  • To evaluate the compatibility of chemically altered dN*TPs with RCA.
  • To assess the nuclease resistance of modified RCA products.

Main Methods:

  • Synthesis of modified nucleoside triphosphates (dN*TPs) with alterations across the nucleosidic scaffold.
  • Generation of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) nanocircles using two distinct ligation methods for RCA templates.
  • Rolling Circle Amplification (RCA) of modified ssDNA circles to produce long, modified ssDNA strands.
  • Nuclease resistance assays to evaluate the stability of the synthesized modified DNA products.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated successful synthesis of modified RCA products using various dN*TPs.
  • Established protocols for generating DNA nanocircle templates suitable for RCA.
  • Characterized the RCA process with modified precursors, yielding long, modified ssDNA products.
  • Assessed and reported on the nuclease resistance of the modified nucleic acid structures.

Conclusions:

  • Modified nucleoside triphosphates are compatible with rolling circle amplification, enabling the synthesis of chemically diverse nucleic acids.
  • The described methods provide a versatile platform for creating modified DNA structures with potential applications in biosensing and therapeutics.
  • The resulting modified RCA products exhibit enhanced nuclease resistance, suggesting improved stability for biotechnological applications.
