RT-PCR protocol (real time pcr)

REVERSE TRANSCRIPTION PCR PROTOCOL (23-3-2009)

 

DNAse TREATMENT:

20 ul extracted RNA+2.5 ul DNAse turbo buffer 10X+1 ul Turbo DNAse (final vol 23.5 ul)

 

1. Incubate at 37° for 30 min. Add 1 ul DNAse more. Incubate for 30’ again.

2. Stop with the inactivation reagent. Centrifuge 1-2 min at maximum rpm and recover supernatant.

 

RT:

1.      Quantify DNAse- treated RNA with Nanodrop. Use 1 ug RNA for RT. Calculate the RNA volume (ul) necessary.

2.      Bring the RNA to the final volume of 35 ml with sterile water.

3.      Add 3 ml of 50 mM random hexamers to each sample.

4.      Incubate 10 min at RT.

5.      Add 19.5 ml of RT mix for each tube. Prepare mastermix in 10% excess.

 

RT MIX FOR EACH SAMPLE

Buffer RT (5X)           11.5 ml

DTT 0.1 M                  2 ml

dNTPS (10 mM)         2 ml (100 mM stock)

RNAse inhibitor          0.5 ml

RT enzyme                  1 ml

Water                          2.5 ml

Final volume= 35+3+19.5=57.5 ml

 

6.      37ºC incubation for 1 hr 30´. To stop the RT reaction, heat at 70-75 ºC for 10´.

7.      Store at -20ºC.

 

 

Q-PCR TAQMAN

 

FOR EACH SAMPLE                       

Mastermix- 12.5 ml

F primer- 1.25 ml                                             

R primer- 1.25 ml                                            

tRNA- 2.5                                                         

Probe- 1.25                                                      

H2O- 3.75 ml                                                    

Sample cDNA/ standard plasmid dilutions- 2.5 ml          

 

Absloute quantification and relative quantification using the standard curve.


THE END:)

Thanks to the original creator of the file. I am just a collector. For some protocols, i am the writer.
If the protocols are useful, do comment on my guestbook.
