The Transcriptome –RNA Expression Analysis
1. Single Gene Approaches Northern blotting RT-PCR Real-time PCR
2. Genomewide RNA expression analysis Microarrays SAGE RNA Seq
Slide 3 - Southern Blot Analysis of Sequences in the Genome
2 - Northern Blot Analysis
4 - RT-PCR and mRNA Quantification
1. Isolate mRNA
2. Reverse transcribe mRNA (make a DNA copy of each mRNA)
3. PCR amplify the first strand reverse transcribed mRNAs
4. Agarose Electrophoresis of samples
5 - Real-time PCR - Review Real-time PCR is a form of
reverse transcription RCR where the method of analysis involves continuous monitoring of the PCR product formed.
The Transcriptome –RNA Expression Analysis
1. Single Gene Approaches Northern blotting RT-PCR Real-time PCR
2. Genomewide RNA expression analysis Microarrays SAGE RNA Seq
10 - Northern Blots vs. Microarrays
1. Global expression analysis: microarrays
a. RNA levels of every gene in the genome analyzed in parallel
2. Northern blot
a. Only 1 gene at a time
target –
loading – control
11 - Basics of Microarrays
1. DNA probe attached to solid support
a. Glass, plastic, or nylon
2. RNA or cDNA is labeled
a. Usually indirectly
3. Bound DNA is the equivalent of the “probe”
a. Labeled RNA (cDNA) is the “target”
4. Each “probe” is specific for a different gene.
12 - Microarray Hybridization
1. Usually comparative
a. Ratio between two samples
2. Examples
a. Tumor vs. normal tissue
b. Drug treatment vs. no treatment
c. Embryo vs. adult

14 - DNA spotting I
1. DNA spotting usually uses multiple pins
2. DNA in microtiter plate
3. DNA usually PCR amplified
4. Oligonucleotides can also be spotted
17 - How Microarrays are Made: Affymetrix GeneChips
1. Oligonucleotides synthesized on silicon chip
a. One base at a time
2. Uses process of photolithography
a. Developed for printing computer circuits
18 - Affymetrix GeneChips
1. Oligonucleotidesa. Usually 20–25 bases in lengthb. 10–20 different oligonucleotides for each gene
2. Oligonucleotides for each gene selected by computer program to be the following:
a. Unique in genomeb. Nonoverlapping
3. Composition based on design rulesa. Empirically derived
19 - Photolithography
1. Light-activated chemical reaction
a. For addition of bases to growing oligonucleotide
2. Custom masks
a. Prevent light from reaching spots where bases not wanted
lamp mask chip
20 - Example: Building Oligonucleotides by Photolithography
1. Want to add nucleotide G
2. Mask all other spots on chip
3. Light shines only where addition of G is desired
4. G added and reacts
5. Now G is on subset of oligonucleotides
light
21 - Example: Adding a Second Base
1. Want to add T 2. New mask covers
spots where T not wanted
3. Light shines on mask4. T added 5. Continue for all four
bases6. Need 80 masks for
total7. 20-mer

23 - Target labeling: Fluorescent cDNA
1. cDNA made using reverse transcriptase
2. Fluorescently labeled nucleotides added
3. Labeled nucleotides incorporated into cDNA
25 - Labels
1. Cy3 and Cy5a. Fluoresce at different wavelengths
b. Used for competitive hybridization
2. Biotina. Binds to fluorescently labeled avidin
b. Used with Affymetrix GeneChips
Scanning of Microarrays
1. Confocal laser scanning microscopy
2. Laser beam excites each spot of DNA
3. Amount of fluorescence detected
4. Different lasers used for different wavelengthsa. Cy3b. Cy5
laserdetection
SAGE
1. Seqeunce tags are PCR copied from cDNA libraries.
2. Tags are ligated together and sequenced.
3. The frequency of each TAG determines gene expression level.
14 - MPSS I
1. Massively parallel signature sequencing
2. Means of determining abundance of RNA species
3. Unique tags added to cDNAs
4. Tags hybridized to oligonucleotides on microbeads
Slide 15 – MPSS I
Sequencing performed in glass chamber
Initiated by restriction enzyme revealing four-base overhang
Hybridization of four-base adapters used to read sequence
Number of times a particular sequence is found is measure of RNA abundance
