i work on Halobacterium salinarum an archaebacteria.

if you know the sequence of your gene so it is not a problem just design a specific primers for your gene and apply them for cDNA formed by random primer

Are there special considerations in primer design of a gene within a gene cluster?

i would like to amplify arcA, a part of the arcRACB gene cluster in Halobacterium salinarum after reverse transcriptase PCR. However i am pretty much worried the product size of arcA in the...

How accurate are singleplex reactions compared to multiplex reactions in real time PCR assays?

I've never done RT PCR assays before. I'm an independent researcher and am worried that multiplex assays are more expensive than singleplex. However, I'm not sure singleplex assays will give...

Is it normal, for a virus and its host, to have too different codon usages?

Codon usage of a virus must coevolve with its host for the virus to use the host machinery more efficiently and therefore replicate faster. When the codon usage of a virus becomes too deviated...
