Template preparation for RT-qPCR

This product is a kit to quickly prepare cell lysate from cultured cells that can be directly utilized for both analysis of gene expression by real-time RT-PCR, and protein expression by Western blot. Using simple protocol, cell lysate can be prepared within 10 minutes. The prepared cell lysate can be used as template in Takara Bio real time RT-PCR kits, and as sample for Western blots, without the need for additional steps to purify nucleic acids, or extract proteins. The included Loading Buffer does not require the addition of 2-mercaptoethanol to perform Western blot.

In addition, lysate prepared with this kit and used with an easy-to-use 1-step real-time RT-PCR kit, such as One Step SYBR® PrimeScript™ RT-PCR Kit II (Perfect Real Time) (RR086A/B)* allows completion of the whole analysis process in less than two hours. This kit can also be used to prepare template cDNA for real-time PCR in only 30 minutes when combined with Takara Bio’s reverse transcription kit such as PrimeScript™ RT reagent Kit (Perfect Real Time) (RR037A/B)*. The lysate prepared with this kit combines easily with many Takara Bio real time RT-PCR related products.

Takara’s EASY Dilution Solution is used to dilute template DNA or RNA when preparing serial dilutions of the standard for establishing the standard curve in real time PCR. When template DNA and RNA are diluted with sterilized water or TE buffer, they may stick to the inside of the tube which can prevent correct dilution. This product

helps to avoid this absorption and allows correct dilutions at lower concentrations. In addition, this product is RNA free, and will not contain non-specific amplification derived from RNA. Easy Dilution has been tested with Takara Bio’s real-time PCR reagents.

Not available in the United States

PrimeScript™ RTase is a RTase from Takara Bio which was originally developed from M-MLV RTase. This enzyme possesses excellent extension ability and synthesizes 1st strand cDNA with high sensitivity and yield. In addition, it can reverse transcribe complex, highly structured RNA at the normal reaction temperature of 42°C. Non-specific annealing of RTase to RNA can interfer with cDNA synthesis during reverse transcription, particularly with highly structured RNA. The resulting non-specific product can have a negative effect on RT efficiency or full length cDNA synthesis. To minimize the above factors, a high temperature reaction is often used

to relax the secondary structures. However, the high temperature may cause RNA degradation which is not ideal. PrimeScript™ RTase is an enzyme that reduces inefficient cDNA synthesis and mispriming by controlling non-specific annealing and optimizing RTase priming to double-stranded portions of template RNA and RT-primer. Furthermore, it contains strong displacement activity. So, this enzyme is capable of synthesizing cDNA with minimal background for complex structures of RNA or longer targets of RNA at 42°C, and is less damaging than other RTase’s.

Real Time PCR Premixes

Using high quality reagents for qPCR minimizes optimization and improves assay consistency. SYBR® Premix Ex Taq™ products are unsurpassed for high-speed, high-specificity application results. These 2× concentration premixes combine the high performance of Takara’s Ex Taq™ Hot-Start DNA Polymerase, with an optimized real time PCR buffer including SYBR® Green I, which provides superior specificity and increased amplification efficiency. Separate tubes of ROX reference dye are also included. Excellent qPCR results are obtained quickly and easily. Excellent real time PCR results are obtained quickly and easily.Both SYBR® Premix Ex Taq™ (Perfect Real Time) result in quick reaction according to the 2 steps standard protocol. First is used for great efficiency and in cases where real time PCR is difficult. On the other hand, version II is used when higher specificity is required by suppressing non-specific amplification such as primer-dimer.

Concerning SYBR® Premix DimerEraser™ , it has an improved buffer system compared to both previous premixes, which is added with the original accessory protein and results in further suppression of non-specific amplification.The two new SYBR premixes for Real-Time PCR, including the thermostable Tli RNAse H are based on the existing highly efficient SYBR® Premix Ex Taq™ (Perfect Real Time). They were developed to address the inhibitory effect on the PCR due to the presence of remaining RNA after cDNA synthesis. This inhibition is seen particularly for GC rich templates and genes with poor expression.Tli RNase H added to the qPCR premix removes the inhibition, without compromising the efficiency of the reaction, as shown in figures 2 and 3. Therefore these new premixes allow excellent quantification of any type of cDNA and thus unparalleled accuracy in gene expression studies.

This can be observed more significantly in case of low expressed genes of high GC content. This is due to the activity of the thermo-stable Tli RNase, premixed with the reaction solution, which helps degrade remaining mRNAs in the template cDNA solution.

Figure 3Comparison of RR420 and RR820 versus competitors premixes. Tli Plus premixes allow better quantification over a broader dynamic range of concentrations. In addition RR820 shows more efficient amplification with faster reaction speed.

Transgene Detection Primer Set for Real Time (Mouse) (3788)

• Detection and quantification of transgene inserted in transgenic mouse genome.

This kit is a primer set for real-time PCR to detect GFP (EGFP, AcGFP1) and lacZ, which are widely used as gene marker inserted in transgenic mice. It is possible to screen transgenic mice by detecting these marker genes with real-time PCR. The primer sets (Ywhaz, Raver2) for detecting genes on mouse genomic DNA are also included as a reference.

Therefore, it is possible to make a comparison of the transgene contents between samples by using the relative quantification method.Takara Bio recommends the use of SYBR® Premix Ex Taq™ (Perfect Real Time) (RR041A/B) and SYBR® Premix Ex Taq™ II (Perfect Real Time) (RR081A/B) with this primer set.

PrimerArrayTM Series

Gene expression analysis

The PrimerArray™ is a set of real-time RT-PCR primers for the analysis of gene expression associated with specific biological pathways. Each array contains a mixture of 96 primer pairs for 88 pathway related genes and 8 housekeeping genes. When quantifying an unknown sample against a control sample, genes will show differential expression via the relative quantification method, and multiple

expression levels can be screened simultaneously. The PrimerArray™ Analysis Tool Ver. 2.0 is useful for analysis with this product. The tool performs relative quantification analysis by ΔΔCt method using Ct values calculated by the software of a real-time PCR instrument, and displays the graphical results.

• Economical: Enough reagents for 12 reactions/well.

• One shot screening of 88 varieties of pathway related genes: Using the difference in gene expression level.

• Pre-optimized for superior performance with SYBR® Premix Ex TaqTM

• Easy Analysis: With a tool exclusive for use with PrimerArrayTM products.

Steps for Preparation1). RNA extraction (approx. 30 min): Extract RNA from experimental materials (control sample and test sample) using the FastPure® RNA

Kit ( 9190), and treat with DNase I. Use approx. 2.5 μg of total RNA for one experiment.

2). Reverse transcription (approx. 20 min): Synthesize cDNA from each of the total RNA samples. Takara recommends use of the Blue-Print™ RT reagent Kit (for real time)( RR737A) or PrimeScript (RR037A).

3). Dispense the real-time PCR reaction solution (approx. 10 min): Combine the synthesized cDNA and SYBR® Premix Ex Taq™ II (Perfect Real Time) to prepare a master mix solution for control and test samples, then dispense into wells of a 96-well real-time PCR plate. (see illustration below)

4). Add primers (approx. 5 min): Add primers from the PrimerArray™ plate to the real-time PCR plate using a multichannel pipette, etc.

How to use the PrimerArray™ Series A flowchart starting with RNA extraction ending with data analysis is laid out in the following diagrams. The time in parentheses is an estimate of time required for one real-time PCR experiment,

and the entire process can be finished in approximately 2.5 to 3.5 hours. Multiple samples can be processed together to the reverse transcription reaction step, and the synthesized cDNA should be stored at -20°C for subsequent experiments.

Link to KEGG pathway (from the PrimerArrayTm analysis software) View of KEGG pathway

What is KEGG ?KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) is a database of biological systems, consisting of genetic building blocks of genes and proteins (KEGG GENES), chemical building blocks of both endogenous and exogenous substances (KEGG LIGAND), molecular wiring diagrams of interaction and reaction networks (KEGG PATHWAY), and hierarchies and relationships of various biological objects (KEGG BRITE). Since 1995 KEGG has been

developed by the Kanehisa Laboratories in the Kyoto University Bioinformatics Center and the Human Genome Center of the University of Tokyo as part of their research activities. KEGG provides a reference knowledge base for linking genomes to biological systems and also to environments by the processes of PATHWAY mapping and BRITE mapping.
