Fine-tuning of xylose metabolism in genetically engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae by scattered integration of xylose assimilation genes
2013, Biochemical and Biophysical Research CommunicationsCitation Excerpt :cDNA synthesis protocol was followed as recommended by the manufacturer (PrimeScript RT-PCR Kit, Taraka Bio, Kyoto, Japan). Housekeeping gene ACT1 was used as internal standard in quantification of expression levels of xyl1, xyl2 and xks1 [13]. RT-PCR primers used for RNA analysis were listed in Table S2.

2007, Clinica Chimica ActaCitation Excerpt :Meanwhile, 18S rRNA remained stably expressed. Serazin-Leroy et al. [21] reported a sensitive semi-quantitative RT-PCR method using Escherichia coli (E. coli) pBR322 mRNA coding for ampicillin resistance as an exogenous internal control. This study found that the β-actin signal was higher in confluent pre-adipocytes than in adipocytes indicating the variation in the expression of this housekeeping gene during different stages of pre-adipocyte differentiation.
