Quantitative PCR using SYBR green (qPCRBIO SyGreen Blue Mix, PCR Biosystems) was performed using a StepOnePlus Real-Time PCR machine. Control reactions lacking reverse transcriptase were also performed to ensure that the levels of contaminating genomic DNA were negligible. Transcript levels were analyzed by the ΔΔCT method using Polr2F (RpII18) as an internal control. Each sample was run in triplicates. Statistical analysis was performed using ‘HH’ R package (https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=HH), with mean and standard deviation values exported from StepOnePlus software.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
