Apart from the names can anyone give me insights about the function of these (preferably in mammalian systems)? Particularly I'm interested in any relations to translational initiation (as I found my only two start-codons flanked by these).

Mohammad Shariati

I think you are asking the wrong person with the same name. There's another M Shariati in your field.

Good luck

Recipe for SYBR.

Anybody has a good recipe for homemade SYBR green mix for real time PCR? To my understanding, one of the key factors is the taq enzyme because most enzymes are inhibited by the SYBR dye.
