i mean i will do qpcr i will multiplex my housekeeping taqman gene (pl) vic dye with another taqman gene and will do the rest in singleplex format ? can i compare other genes expression to housekeeping gene ?
as you are going to normalize to the HKG and you are just looking for relative abundances this should work. In general you need to check that the PCR efficiency is comparable between Duplex and signleplex reaction of the particular assays
