RT-PCR从实验到写作,零基础教程

PCR,相信我们都不陌生,是一种选择性体外扩增DNA或RNA片段的方法,即通过试管中进行的DNA复制反应,使极少量的基因组DNA或RNA样品中特定基因片段在短短几小时内扩增上百万倍。

简单说,就是我们在体外模仿体内DNA复制的过程,混合DNA模板、合适的引物、足够的4种dNTP、耐热DNA聚合酶以及适宜的体系后,在一定温度和时间条件下,进行的DNA扩增。

PCR有很多种,其中RT-PCR,全称反转录聚合酶链反应(reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, RT-PCR)是将RNA的反转录和cDNA的聚合酶链式扩增(PCR)相结合的技术。

实验原理是在试管内,以变性-退火-延伸三个基本反应为一个循环,反复重复这种循环,使DNA得以扩增。其目的是检测核酸的表达,主要是RNA的表达,DNA不需要反转录的过程,直接PCR检测即可。

一、RT-PCR操作步骤

1. RNA抽提

方法:TRlzol法。

主要成分:苯酚(具有裂解细胞和变性蛋白的作用)。

RNA抽提前准备:试剂耗材准备(注意RNase free)、样品的准备。

步骤:样品+1ml TRlzol室温裂解10min+200μL氯仿振荡30s后室温静置2-3 min;4℃低温离心(12 000g×20min);400μL上层水相+600μL异丙醇室温沉淀10min;4℃低温离心(12 000g×20min);75%乙醇冲洗;晾干沉淀,DEPC-treated水溶解。

2. RNA 质量检测

方法:分光光度计测定、凝胶电泳法

3. 反转录

是以RNA为模板合成cDNA的过程。在这个过程中遗传信息的流动方向和转录时相反,所以称为“反转录”。在这个过程中需要一个反转录酶,合成的DNA称为与RNA互补的DNA(complementary DNA, cDNA)。这个过程中根据不同的情况选择不同的反转录引物,如果要检测的RNA有poly A尾巴,可以用Oligo(dT)做反转录引物;如果要检测的RNA没有poly A尾巴,就用随机引物(random primer)来反转;如果要检测的RNA序列已知,可用特定引物(specific primer)来反转。

4. PCR程序

三步法:

第一步:94℃变性30s;

第二步(循环30-35次):94℃变性30s,55-60℃退火30s,72℃延伸24s(时间按照合成速度和长度来计算);

第三步:72℃终止延伸5-10min。

5. 引物

引物设计步骤:

找到目的基因的CDs序列(存在多个转录本时可对各个转录本的保守区域进行引物设计);用软件设计和评价引物(Oligo软件);blast引物特异性。

要求:

引物长度为15-30bp,最常用的为23bp;引物Tm值介于62-73℃之间,上下游引物Tm最好相近以保证其能高效工作;3’-端的Tm值要低于5’端;引物GC含量约为40-60%;避免扩增模板的二级结构域;避免引物的二级结构;避免与靶DNA错配。

6. PCR酶:可按需要选择普通的Taq酶、可扩增长片段的Taq酶或高保真酶。

7. PCR体系:按所选的PCR酶说明书来配制。

8. PCR产物检测:一般采用琼脂糖凝胶电泳,必要时也可使用聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳。

反转录引物选择:

1. Oligo dT:适用于具有PolyA尾巴的RNA。(原核生物的RNA、真核生物的rRNA和tRNA不具有PolyA尾巴。)由于Oligo dT要结合到PolyA尾巴上,所以对RNA样品的质量要求较高,即使有少量降解也会使全长cDNA合成量大大减少。

2. 随机引物(random primer): 适用于长的或具有发卡结构的RNA。适用于rRNA、mRNA、tRNA 等所有RNA的反转录反应。

3. 特异性引物(Specific primer):与模板序列互补的引物,适用于目的序列已知的情况。

二、RT-PCR需注意的细节

1. 实验过程中必须戴口罩、手套,尽量避免其他人员干扰。

2. RT试剂盒从冰箱拿出,应该充分解冻,瞬离后,混匀,放于冰上,可在冰上加样。试剂可以用数字贴纸编号,避免漏加、错加试剂。

3. 取用不同的试剂时,必须更换枪头,样本之间要避免交叉污染。

4. 逆转录时,PCR仪可以先预热。

5. 反应体系配好之后,应充分混匀,瞬离,并且弹去管内的气泡。

6. 实验过程中应预防RNA酶污染,使用无酶枪头以及EP管,同时台面可以使用固相RNA酶去除剂清洁。

7. PCR时,管壁尽量避免写字。

8. 管盖一定要盖严。

9. 10μL逆转录反应体系建议加入不超过500ng的RNA。

10. 如果目的基因表达量非常低,最多加入1μg Total RNA,否则加入RNA量过高,可能会超出后续PCR的线性范围。

11. 反应体积可根据需要等比例放大。

12. 试剂尽量不要反复冻融。

13. 每个样品至少3个平行孔,所有成分加完后,离心去除气泡。

14. 可将所有共同物质加入同一管中,混匀后分散入其他管中。

  1. He looks down. And then smiles at his dad. His father unbuttons his shirt and throws it to the bathroom floor. Where his son is like the mythical David, cast in stone with blonde locks and cherubic face. The father is dark and with a day’s growth of stubble on his face.

  2. “I thought you usually showered after practice. In the locker room.” His dad asks as he walks into the open door of the bathroom. “Once you plant that cock of yours in some squirmy hole and empty those warm balls of yours into a moist wet hole. Then you are on your way to becoming a man, and only then will you, come-of-age. But it is only a step onto the winding pathway towards manhood. It is my job to teach you what it means to be a man.” His father stands as he finishes his sentence. Loosening his belt and pulling his shirt out from the tucked confines of his pants.

  3. Garrett does not go hog-wild on his tool. He caresses and adores it like one would an idol. porno dla dzieci Daddy was furious as I could hear his deep breath. He sat down on the bench by the door. I was looking down afraid he was going to kick my ass. He lifted my head from my chin using the tip of his loafer where I can smell that smelly sheer socks he has been worn all day. Just when our eyes met, a big stinky manly wad landed on my face. Then I felt a big rough hand rubbing the spit all over my face. I heard the daddy say, “ next time remember what I told you exactly, I don’t want this to happen again, you hear me? I paused and said, “ yeeee…”. Before I finished the sentence, another spit and a big slap on me. “ when I told you something you must say yes. There is no room for you to argue or think, understood?” He said in a deep and firm tone. “ yes sir”. Without missing a beep I said it. “good boy, your night is just about to start.”
