Real-time PCR measurement by fluorescence anisotropy.

چکیده
We have developed an instrument for monitoring real-time PCR using fluorescence anisotropy, enabling an assay chemistry in which the fluorescence from a labeled primer elucidates amplification. The instrument holds the sample temperature constant to within +/-0.03 degrees C during measurement in the extension phase of each PCR cycle and achieves 0.116 mP FA resolution. Primer conjugation with Alexa-Fluor 488, when compared with other fluorophores, is shown to provide the greatest FA range between primer and product. Comparable reproducibility and linearity of the crossing point for a range of target copy numbers is observed between the FA-based assay run in our instrument and the SYBR green assay run in commercial instrumentation. Reproducibility is also consistent with Poisson-distributed experimental error in aliquoting starting copies, a theoretical limit to instrument/assay performance.

ABSTRACT Background and objectives: Pterygium is a non-cancerous growth of conjunctival tissue that can extend onto the corneal surface. The presence of some oncogenic viruses in pterygium and the neoplastic nature of these lesions led us to the postulated involvement of the viruses in the etiology of pterygium. Given the association of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) with ocular disea...

Background: People occasionally undergo medical diagnostic X-ray examinations and expose their red blood cells to radiation. Radiation that is generated from medical diagnostic X-ray machines is widely used in medical diagnoses. One of the important parameters is kilo-voltage (kV) that is applied across the X-ray tube in medical diagnostic X-ray machines. Kilo-voltage influences the radiation d...

Background: Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent malignancies among women in various countries. HER2 overexpression, which is due to different reasons, occurs in 20-30% of breast cancers. HER2 gene encodes an 185kDa transmembrane glycoprotein with 1255 amino acids. This active product triggers downstream intracellular signaling pathways inducing cell proliferation and cell survival. These...
