We use 1 ug RNA for cDNA synthesis and work lung, prostate, lymph and primer tumor tissues.
random primer is the best
thanks
there is a huge difference between oligodT and randomX:
oligodT; advantages:
- mature, eucaryota mRNA and viral during activation
- no bacterial mRNA background (perfect for colon cancer)
- perfect for low-copy genes since rRNA is ommited (80-95% of total RNA)
- high (ca. 40-45C) RT temperature
disadvantages:
- 18s rRNA cannot be assessed
- 3' mRNA preference (qPCR primers must be carefully designed on long mRNA)
- low efficiency for low-quality RNA
randomX; adv:
- perfect for low-quality RNA and RNA isolated from FFPE slides (RNA fragmentation)
- 18S rRNA may be assessed
- bacterial RNA can be checked
-5' mRNA preference
- good for qPCR with probes (small amplicons)
- higher efficiency
- more expensive than oligodT
- low temp of RT (hybridization at ca. 25C)
- bacterial background
- not-so good for low-copy genes
thanks for your answer
In addition, I'd like to investigate cytokeratin expression in same breast cancer cell lines but I can't decide to use which cytkokeratin?
