Taqman specific microrna probe

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States, Japan

The TaqMan specific microRNA probe is a molecular biology tool designed for the detection and quantification of specific microRNA sequences. It consists of a short DNA or RNA oligonucleotide with a fluorescent reporter dye and a quencher dye attached. The probe is designed to hybridize to a complementary target microRNA sequence, allowing for real-time detection and measurement of the target microRNA expression levels.

Quantifying miRNA and mRNA Expressions in GC Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The relative miRNA (miR-498) and mRNA (CEACAM5) expressions in GC cells were estimated via qRT-PCR. The total RNAs in transfected cells were extracted with the aid of a TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen, USA). Afterward, Master Mix kit (Takara, USA) and miRNA First-Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit (Invitrogen, USA) were employed to synthesize cDNA from mRNAs and miRNAs, respectively, through reverse transcription. The ABI 7500 detection system, SYBR Green PCR Kit (Takara, Japan), and TaqMan specific microRNA probe (Life technology, USA) were utilized for the qRT-PCR. The reaction was carried out with the following conditions: 94 °C for 10 s, 60 °C for 30 s, 68 °C for 2 min, 40 cycles. GAPDH and U6 were adopted to normalize the data. The relative expressions were calculated by applying the 2−ΔΔCt approach [20] . We listed the primer information in Table 1.

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.
