This study presents a rapid, three-day protocol for reverse transcription/polymerase chain reaction (RT/PCR), cloning, and sequencing of mRNA. This optimized method facilitates the analysis of gene expression and alternative splicing products.

Area of Science:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Genetics

Context:

  • Reverse transcription/polymerase chain reaction (RT/PCR) is crucial for detecting specific mRNA transcripts.
  • Cloning PCR fragments is often required for further analysis, including identifying alternative splicing or generating DNA probes.

Purpose:

  • To present a complete, optimized protocol for RT/PCR, cloning, and sequencing of PCR products.
  • To enable the entire process from total RNA to DNA sequence within three days.

Summary:

  • A streamlined protocol for RT/PCR, cloning, and sequencing is detailed, starting with total RNA and concluding with the DNA sequence.
  • The protocol was optimized for small-scale use to enhance ease of handling and reduce costs.
  • Human glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase mRNA was used as an example to demonstrate the procedure.
