Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 64, 669-677. Reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibition of PCR at low concentrations of template and its implications for quantitative RT-PCR. 1998

Chandler, D. P. , Wagnon, C. A. , Bolton, H. Jr

Notes: This paper discusses the inhibition of PCR by reverse transcriptases. The inhibitory effect was overcome by increasing template concentration to more than 10^5 to 10^6 copies or including T4 gene 32 protein during the reverse transcription phase of the reaction. The poly(A)+ RNA used in the study was isolated using the PolyATtract® mRNA Isolation System. (1357)

Biochemistry 37, 4420-4428.. Silent nucleotide substitution in the sterol 27-hydrosylase gene (CYP 27) leads to alternative pre-mRNA splicing by activating a crytic 5' splice site at the mutant codon in cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis patients. 1998

Chen, W., Kubota, S., Teramoto, T., Nishimura, Y., Yonemoto, K., Seyama, Y.

Notes: Genomic analysis noted a single base change between wild type and mutant. To see if this base change was enough for alternative mRNA splicing, minigenes were constructed and subcloned into the pTargeT™ Vector. The mutant and wild-type minigenes were transfected into COS-1 cells. Forty-eight hours post-transfection total RNA was isolated and analyzed by RT-PCR. Transfectants with the mutant sequence did produce a different product due to alternative splicing. (1331)

Notes: cDNA was generated by reverse transcription of RNA purified from lymphoblastoid cell lines. PCR amplification of the cDNA was used to introduce a 17bp consensus T7 promoter sequence and a mammalian translation-initiation sequence in frame with a unique hMLH1 or hMSH2 sequence. Resultant PCR products were translated in the TNT® T7 Coupled Reticulocyte Lysate System. (1194)

Notes: The Access RT-PCR System was used for a semi-quantitative assessment of the quantity of Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn SOD) Mn superoxide dismutase (Mn SOD) mRNA levels. Primary embryonic hippocampal neurons were treated with Abeta(25-35) for zero to 25 hours. The level of the Cu/Zn SOD and Mn SOD mRNA was related as percent of control, untreated cultures. The PCR portion of the reaction was performed for 22 cycles to insure that the reaction was in the linear range. (0106)

Moore, B.B., Cao, Z.A., McRae, T.L., Woo, C.H., Conley, S., Jones, P.P.

Notes: The Access RT-PCR System was used to assess expression of the CIITA gene in fibroblast L and splenic B cells. The 700bp transcript could be detected with as little as 40ng of poly(A)+ RNA from the splenic B cells but undetectable in as much as 5µg of poly (A)+ RNA from the L cells. Both sources of RNA were readily amplified for a 510bp β-actin message from 5µg down to 40ng. (0657)
