Reliable amplification method for bacterial RNA.
Journal of biotechnology 2006;126(1):61-8.
DNA microarray technology has been increasingly applied for studies of clinical samples. Frequently, RNA probes from clinical samples are available in limited amounts. We describe a reliable amplification method for bacterial RNA. We verified this method on mycobacterial RNA applying mycobacterial genome-directed primers (mtGDPs). Glass slide-based oligoarrays were employed to assess the quality of the amplification method. We observed a relatively small bias in amplified RNA pool when compared to the unamplified one. Up to 1000-fold linear RNA amplification in a single amplification round was obtained. To our knowledge, this study describes the first amplification method for mycobacterial RNA.
