General Information on qPCR
The genomic platform offers a complete service for real time PCR, open to everyone.
Here are the main applications we do:
- Relative gene expression (mRNA)
- Validation of siRNA or shRNA effect
- Relative expression of miRNAs
- ChIP validation
- qPCR on very small amount of RNA
- Transgene copy number
- Many more...
For example, here are the steps for a standard relative gene expression experience:
- analysis of RNA quality
- preparation of cDNA
- design of qPCR assays
- validation of qPCR assays
- qPCR
- analysis of results
We have more than 5000 qPCR assays already validated for human and mouse essentially, but also for the rat, drosophila, zebrafish, and some yeasts.
