Gene Expression Analysis and DNA Microarray Assays

If we want to understand a biological organism, we turn to the expression of its genome. Which genes are being expressed, and in which cells, and when? How does this differ between a normal cell and a cancer cell? We have incredibly sophisticated techniques to investigate these questions, and the most indispensable is the DNA microarray assay. This apparatus is even more useful than it is colorful, so let's see how this works now.

    So for microarray, we are only using one cDNA strand which was made from the template, the mRNA. However, there is one thing that isn't clear to me and that is about the RT-PCR. RT-PCR generates double-stranded cDNA right? How come in microarray we are only using the single strand and not double? Is there any intermediate enzyme that was involved?

    Hey, you might already have found the answer to your question but in order to make cDNA we use a reverse transcriptase. This is a protein that basically turns your RNA back into DNA. Usually the reverse transcriptase leaves you with a single stranded DNA strand and a round of normal PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is required to turn it into double stranded DNA. Hybridization can then be performed by separating the strands again (either heating or chemical, where heating would be preferred since it is less harmful for the DNA). The stand that is complementary to the probe that was designed will then bind to either one of the strands and start the microarray assay. Which strand binds should not matter too much since the probe should be specific for a certain gene. Hope this helps.

  • @IntellicastFacts

    @IntellicastFacts

    Жыл бұрын

    In a nutshell, RNA splicing involves the removal of introns (non-coding parts of the mRNA) and joins the coding sequences (exons) together in order to enable translation. Since the parts removed are non-coding, it does not affect RT-PCR. RT-PCR, standing for Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction, involves reverse transcriptase - converting RNA into cDNA - and (often) Taq DNA polymerase - completing the DNA after denaturation. To sum up, since the RT-PCR process only duplicates CODING DNA, DNA splicing does not affect the process AT ALL, since it removes NON-CODING parts of the original DNA.

    word of caution, rna pol doesnt need a primer right, so reverse transcriptase having a primer feels fishy but its not because although widely called reverse trasncriptase the enzyme itself is synthesizing dna and so in essence its a dna pol and dna pols need the TTT primers.

    During the process of RT-PCR we get a complimentary ssDNA for which we perform PCR to get a dsDNA, we add this to each of the wells of the array plate and the complimentary DNA probe hybridizes and form a link. My doubt is if the DNA is already ds post RT-PCR how will it bind to another DNA probe. Or are we considering the DNA to be ss post RT- PCR. (the animation does not support the fact that the DNA is ss post RT-PCR at 5:11 ) Anybody?
