Real Time qPCR

Materials

  • cDNA for templates
  • Qiashredder and RNEasy kits from Qiagen
  • Superscript Kit from Invitrogen
  • SyberGreen PCR Master Mix Applied Biosystems
  • 96 well qPCR plate
  • Primers (Dilute to 0.22 uM mixture of fwd and rev)
  • Generate primers using http://pga.mgh.harvard.edu/primerbank/index.html

Protocol

RNA Extraction

  1. Use RNEasy kit with Qiashredder. For a 12 well plate, use 350 uL of RLT (add 10 uL B-ME per 1 mL of RLT buffer).
  2. Scrape cells and pass through Qiashredder column. Do the optional DNAse step at step 5 using the RNAse free DNAse from Qiagen.
  3. Store at -20 until RT reaction

RT-PCR Reaction

  1. Use 8 uL of RNA per RT reaction.
  2. Use Superscript RT-PCR kit from Invitrogen, following manufacturers instructions
  3. Store cDNA at -20 until use

Plate Preparation

  1. Prepare dilutions of primers. Need 9 uL per well. Book 3h on qPCR machine
  2. Get 96 well block and keep on rack. Do not touch bottom of plate.
  3. Add 1 uL template per well.
  4. Add 9 uL primer per well
  5. Using PCR strip and multichannel pipettor, add 10 uL Master mix to each well
