C4. Valutazione quantitativa e qualitativa dell’RNA totale (Protocollo C1)
mediante RT-PCR
Reazione di Retrotrascrizione (RT):
La reazione di retrotrascrizione con primers di sequenza casuale (Random primers) consente la
produzione di cDNA che verrà poi utilizzato nella reazione di Real Time PCR per determinare
la quantità relativa di specifici trascritti.
È fondamentale preparare due reazioni, una a cui verrà aggiunto l’enzima trascrittasi inversa
(RT) e un controllo negativo senza enzima. Eventuale presenza di prodotti di PCR in questo
secondo campione indicherebbe una contaminazione della preparazione di RNA da parte di
DNA genomico.
Preparare due provette Eppendorf (RT+/RT)
X entrambe le provette:
Campioni
RNA (ca. 1g come determinati da
lettura spettrofot.)
1l random primers (100ng/l)
1l dNTP’s mix (10mM)
