产品详情

QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit对有限的RNA样品进行预扩增和逆转录，获得高产量cDNA，用于无限次real-time PCR基因表达分析。该试剂盒包含全转录扩增所需的全部酶和缓冲液。对Phi29聚合酶创新的修饰确保从低至1 ng RNA中制备多至40 μg cDNA。该聚合酶独特的加工过程可制备高度统一的cDNA，确保通过real-time PCR进行可靠的基因表达分析。

绩效

QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit确保所有转录子高度一致的扩增，这对于基因表达分析是必需的。所有mRNA转录子以相同的形式同时在5'和3'末端扩增（参见" Equal amplification of 5' and 3' regions"）。图" Preservation of transcript profile", 显示高度稳定的转录子，该图将分别应用QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit全基因组扩增的cDNA和用逆转录酶制备的未扩增cDNA进行了对比。

可获得多至40 μg的可重复、高产量的cDNA（参见" Reproducible cDNA yields"）。能够进行无限次real-time PCR分析，并具有高度重复性的C_T值（参见" Reliable real-time PCR analysis"）。此外，由于cDNA比RNA更稳定，可以存档用于以后的研究工作。

高产量的cDNA可用于real-time PCR分析
起始材料	扩增时间	扩增产物的常规产量	可进行的real-time PCR次数*
10 ng RNA	2小时	至多10 µg cDNA	1000
10 ng RNA	8小时	至多40 µg cDNA	4000

原理

获得的生物样本量太少可能限制基因表达谱分析。使用QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit可对少量珍贵的样品进行无限次real-time PCR分析。QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit经优化，用于1 ng RNA或相当于约50个细胞RNA的全转录扩增，甚至可以用更少量的RNA，这些取决于RNA的品质和转录子的丰度。

QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit含有逆转录酶、DNA聚合酶和优化的缓冲液及试剂，可对一个RNA样本的所有转录本进行扩增。此试剂盒整合了经质量验证的REPLI-g技术，通过非偏向序列扩增来合成cDNA。REPLI-g扩增采用Multiple Displacement Amplification（MDA）技术，应用独特加工的DNA聚合酶实现等温扩增（参见" Whole transcriptome amplification"）。该技术确保包括5’末端在内的所有转录区的同等扩增，从而获得可用于real-time PCR的足够多的cDNA。

程序

从总RNA开始经过3个步骤可获得大量代表了整个转录子的cDNA（参见""）。首先，应用优化的含有T-Script Enzyme的逆转录混合物（含有随机引物和oligo-dT引物）将RNA转录为cDNA。用高效的连接混合物连接，然后用基于经验证的REPLI-g技术的扩增混合物扩增cDNA。

应用

QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit制备的cDNA可用于QuantiFast或Rotor-Gene Kits进行的real-time PCR分析，且可以储存用于以后的分析，但不适用于微阵列分析。QIAGEN提供REPLI-g Kits and Service，用于小量或珍贵样品的全基因组扩增。扩增高度一致，具有最小的序列偏好，可制备适合于基因分型和Comparative Genome Hybridization等应用的DNA。

常见问答

Suitability of RNA templates for use with the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit depends on RNA quality and needs to be tested for each sample individually.

Ideally, RNA transcripts should be longer than 500 nucleotides. Although most FFPE samples provide enough RNA, the RNA is of insufficient quality.

FAQ-1583

Random primers as well as oligo-dT primers are used in the reverse-transcription step of the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome protocol.

The QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit amplifies cDNA derived from all regions of RNA transcripts, including 5' ends, but does not provide amplified cDNA corresponding to full-length RNA transcripts.

FAQ-1584

The QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit amplifies cDNA from all regions of RNA transcripts, including 5' ends, but does not generate amplified cDNA corresponding to full-length RNA transcripts.

FAQ-1585

RNA transcripts should be longer than 500 nucleotides for use with the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit. RNA quality needs to be tested for each sample individually.

FAQ-1586

cDNA generated with the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit is not compatible with Affymetrix microarrays. We have not tested compatibility with self-spotted cDNA arrays.

FAQ-1587

Minimum amplification time in the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome procedure is 2 hours. Any amplification time between 2 and 8 hours can be used. cDNA yield will depend on the length of the amplification time.

FAQ-1588

No, that is not possible. The reagents used in the ligation reaction of the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome protocol are only compatible with cDNA prepared using the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit.

FAQ-1589

Yes, less than 10 ng of RNA can be used with the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit if the RNA is of high quality and the abundance of the transcript of interest is high. Please see Appendix A in the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Handbook for details on the limitations for RNA amplification.

(Note that 1 ng of RNA corresponds to approximately 50 cells).

FAQ-1590

Up to 300 ng RNA can be used for amplification with the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit without any change in transcript representation.

FAQ-1591

We highly recommend any QuantiTect or QuantiFast Kit for quantitative PCR on cDNA generated with the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit.

FAQ-1592

We do not recommend extending the amplification time when using the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit. Maximum cDNA yields are achieved after 8 hours. In addition, transcript representation may by affected by amplification times longer than 8 hours.

FAQ-1608

No, as miRNA is shorter than 500 nt, the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit is not suitable for the amplification of miRNA.

FAQ-1609

It is not necessary to clean up cDNA prepared with the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit if using it for real-time PCR. See the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Handbook for recommendations on cDNA dilution.

FAQ-1610

We recommend amplification of the original starting material with the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit. If the original starting material is no longer available, the cDNA can be reamplified at least once using REPLI-g Kits.

We have not validated more than one round of reamplification.

FAQ-1611

Yes, use the RNeasy Micro Kit or RNeasy Mini Kit to purify RNA from laser-capture microdissected (LCM) samples prior to amplification with the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit. Note, however, that carrier RNA has to be avoided in the RNA purification procedure as it may affect specific amplification of transcript sequences.

RNeasy Kits ensure that the RNA is of sufficient quality. Degraded RNA cannot be used for amplification.

FAQ-1612

cDNA amplified with the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit is 20 kb in length.

However, note that the amplified cDNA contains concatemers of transcript sequences, and does not correspond to full-length RNA transcripts.

FAQ-1613

Our experiments do not show any need to include a step for genomic DNA removal with the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit.

FAQ-1614

Yes, the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit works with all RNA with a length of >500 nt.

FAQ-1615

A maximum of 5 µl RNA eluate from RNeasy extraction procedures can be added to the reverse-transcription reaction with the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit.

FAQ-1616

No, the T-Script® enzyme of the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit is an optimized blend for whole transcriptome amplification and cannot be substituted by Quantiscript Reverse Transcriptase of the QuantiTect Reverse Transcription Kit, or any other reverse-transcription enzyme.

FAQ-1617

Yes, this is possible. The reverse transcription reaction can be stored at -20°C. We recommend not to store the ligation reaction longer than overnight at 4°C before proceeding to the next step in the protocol.

For convenience, all incubation steps of the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome protocol can be pre-programmed on a thermal cycler.

FAQ-1618

No, we have never observed coamplification of genomic DNA from RNA templates used in the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome protocol when using RNA purified with RNeasy Kits without on-column DNase digestion.

FAQ-1619

In no-template control reactions for the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit, primer–dimers can form. The highly processive Phi29 DNA polymerase used in the amplification step of the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome procedure will extend these primer–dimers, leading to nonspecific amplification products.

These nonspecific products do not influence subsequent real-time PCR.

FAQ-1620

The cDNA generated with the QuantiTect Whole Transcriptome Kit is as stable as purified DNA and can be stored for several years.

FAQ-1623

Small amounts of carrier RNA, such as used with RNeasy Micro Kit, do not interfere. However, larger amounts such as used with QIAamp MinElute Virus Kits, the QIAamp Viral RNA Mini Kit, or the QIAsymphony DSP Virus/Pathogen Kits, will interfere with the Whole Transcriptome amplification.
