Short Description
Caco-2-cell based In Vitro RNA Expression Analysis Assay (DNA Microarray)
Assay Description
DNA microarray is another technique that enables the analysis of gene expression. Fluorescent labeled cDNA (with cyanines) synthesized from a test sample is hybridized to target probes with complementary sequences attached on microarray chips and strongly bound complexes are screened after scanning optically.
Assay Type
Gene and Protein Expression Assays
Assay Type Details
Following transcription, primary transcript RNA is converted into mature RNA by post-transcriptional modifications. Post-transcriptional modification includes three major steps namely the addition of a 5'cap, addition of a 3'polyadenylation tail and RNA splicing. Stability of RNA has been considered as very important for gene expression and proteins at the post-transcriptional level.
