Module BB MMB3001
Overview
End-point PCR
For DNA
Semi-quantitative
For RNA
Quantitative
qPCR curve: The plateau phase indicates that there is no more product
GC content = 40-60%
cDNA Synthesis
1. Extract RNA
Digital PCR
A type of qPCR
Sequencing
1. Sanger sequencing
A laser can detect the probe and converts it into the letter which symbolises a
nucleotide
High-Throughput Sequencing
Short reads sand bioinformatics to combine all the piece
1. Library preparation
2. Library amplifiction
3. Sequencing
Bisulphite sequencing
The aim is to compare cytosine vs methyl-cytosine
Treat one half with bisulphite to convert cytosine to uracil (N.B. Methyl-cytosine
CANNOT be converted into uracil)
