RT-PCR Primer Sets for Human and Mouse Mismatch Repair Genes

Primer sets facilitate study of DNA mismatch repair Mark Dycaico Stratagene Cloning Systems ...ed RT-PCR primer sets from the cDNAsequences of mismatch repair genes. These genes code for specialized proteinsthat participate in correcting areas of base ...

Tools for Detecting MSH2 Expression in Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells

...ster cell model system. MSH2 is important for DNA mismatch repair, and mutations in this gene areresponsible for many cases of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer. 1 The MSH2 gene encodes a 3.1-kb mRNA that is expressed at low to moderate levels. 2 The larger-than-average size and modest expression lev...

The TripleMaster PCR System for three different amplifications

Detecting miRNA & siRNA

...nstruction Kit. mir-16 mut probe (32 nt) carries 3 mismatch mutations (ACG to CGA) corresponding to nucleotides 9 to 11 of the miR-16 miRNA sequence. The mir-16+4 probe (36 nt) carries 4 additional A residues between the 22 nt sequence specific for miR-16 and the 10 nt leader sequence,...

Designing Controls for siRNA Experiments

...e reports indicate that a single mismatch in the center of an siRNA sequence can abolish silencing effects (1,2). In fact, this remarkable specificity has been shown in a model system to permit allele specific gene silencing (2). In contr...

A Multiple Mutation Model System as a Test Development and Training Tool for Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis

...nment for the detection of mutations in the mismatch repair genes relevant to the development of Hereditary Non-Polyposis Colon Cancer. We selected exon 4 of the hMSH2 gene as a model system for analysis. A series of mutations was created by site directed mutagenesis in an e...

Heteroduplex Analysis Using the DCode System

...olecules. 1 Heteroduplex molecules have a mismatch in the double-strand, causing a distortion...teroduplex molecules with as little as one mismatch can show a different mobility in a gel from homoduplex molecules. Polyacrylamide analogs hav...

Using the SpectraMax Plus for USP Dissolution Calibration (MaxLine Application Note #27)

...ving raw absorbance values of 1 OD, the worst-case mismatch between plates would still produce an error of 1% or less. However, the lower the absorbance values of the samples, the greater the maximum potential error due to plate variability. The variability is considerably higher at 242 nm, where the average...

Fast Track: Topics for Consideration

...agency. One reason for this strain is the frequent mismatch between FDA expertise and new product development. Another reason is that FDA reviewers often are isolated from new scientific and technical developments and therefore necessarily review current applications in the context of previously reviewed appl...

Lessons in Offshore Software Development

...ftware matches the specs. The goal is to avoid a mismatch between expectations and deliverables. There can be problems with communication and understanding of requirements. It is even more important to document the requirements clearly, so that what is expected from the service provider is what is delivered...
