General description

The SYBR® Green Quantitative RT-PCR Kit combines Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus Reverse Transcriptase (M-MLV RT), JumpStart Taq DNA polymerase, and SYBR Green I fluorescent dye in a one-step RT-PCR kit designed for measurement of gene expression. This convenient 2X ready mix includes M-MLV RT, SYBR Green I dye, JumpStart Taq DNA polymerase, 99% pure deoxynucleotides, buffer, glass passivator, and stabilizers. The JumpStart Taq DNA polymerase is an antibody-inactivated hot-start enzyme. Once the reaction temperature reaches 70°C, the DNA polymerase-antibody complex dissociates and Taq DNA polymerase activity is restored. This antibody-enzyme complex allows for easy and convenient set-up with less contamination risk than manual hot-start techniques.

Application

SYBR® Green Quantitative RT-qPCR Kit has been used in a 1-step reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay:
  • to detect specific genetic clusters of genogroup I and II noroviruses
  • for chikungunya viral (CHIKV) RNA quantification
  • to detect mRNA expression levels
  • for amplification of total RNA extracted from human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and prostate cancer cells

Features and Benefits

  • The master mix allows consistency and reproducibility from one reaction to the next
  • Reduced preparation time and the risk of contamination from multiple pipetting steps
  • Reduced set-up time as compared to manual or wax Hot Start methods
  • JumpStartTaq Polymerase reduces primer-dimer and non-specific product formation
  • SYBR® Green I dye is inexpensive, easy to use, and highly sensitive
  • Broad instrument compatibility
  • Includes a separate ROX reference dye vial for reaction normalization

Packaging

1 kit sufficient for 100 reactions at 50 μL each

Articles

RT-qPCR products combine the effective of Reverse Transcriptase with hot-start taq-directed antibody in convenient ReadyMixes for probe-based or SYBR® Green based applications.

qPCR investigates gene expression, amplification, and alterations, crucial for tumor biology and understanding cancer genetics.

Challenges in gene expression analysis include mRNA stability, temporal transcription patterns, and mRNA-protein correlation, impacting accuracy.

PCR master mix simplifies PCR/RT-PCR with components like DNA polymerase, dNTPs, MgCl2, and buffer, available commercially or DIY.

Protocols

Primer Concentration Optimization Protocol creates reaction matrix for testing primer concentrations against various partners.

Perform reverse transcription (RT) using a reverse transcriptase enzyme and dNTPs. Use total RNA or a gene-specific approach so that only the RNA of interest is converted to cDNA.
