Analysis of FLVCR1 Gene (Mutation) by RT-qPCR (CAT#: STEM-MT-0180-LGZ)

Name: Analysis of FLVCR1 Gene (Mutation) by RT-qPCR
SKU: STEM-MT-0180-LGZ
Rating: 5 (1 reviews)

Introduction

Also known as: PCA; AXPC1; FLVCR; PCARP; MFSD7B; SLC49A1
This gene encodes a member of the major facilitator superfamily of transporter proteins. The encoded protein is a heme transporter that may play a critical role in erythropoiesis by protecting developing erythroid cells from heme toxicity. This gene may play a role in posterior column ataxia with retinitis pigmentosa and the hematological disorder Diamond-Blackfan syndrome.

Principle Applications Procedure Materials

Principle

Quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) is an experimental method applied to PCR experiments using RNA as the starting material. In this method, total or messenger RNA (mRNA) is first transcribed into complementary DNA (cDNA) by reverse transcriptase. Subsequently, qPCR reaction was performed using cDNA as template.

Applications

Inborn genetic diseases, Posterior column ataxia-retinitis pigmentosa syndrome

Procedure

1. Sample processing and preparation of PCR reaction system.
2. Add the amplification template, cover the PCR reaction cover, mix well, centrifuge at low speed instantaneously, and transfer to the PCR instrument.
3. Set the program for PCR amplification.
4. Data analysis.
