1 mRNA Quantification

2 Real-time PCR To accurately quantify starting amounts of nucleic acid during the PCR reaction without the need for post-PCR analyses. A fluorescent reporter is used to monitor the PCR reaction as it occurs; the reporter can be of a nonspecific or specific nature. The fluorescence of the reporter molecule increases as products accumulate with each successive round of amplification.

3 RT-PCR Reverse transcription + Polymerase chain reaction
mRNA quantification

4 Threshold Cycle (Ct) In the early cycles of amplification, the change in fluorescence of the reporter is usually undetectable, but at some point during amplification, the accumulation of product results in a measurable change in the fluorescence of the reaction mixture. The point at which the fluorescence rises appreciably above background has been called the threshold cycle.

6 SYBR Green I dsDNA에 결합되지 않은 dye는 아주 약한 형광을 내지만, 컴퓨터 분석과정에서 이러한
결합되지 않은 dye에 의한 형광값(background)은 충분히 제거할 수 있다. Primer를 넣어서 annealing 한 후, 몇몇 dye 분자들이 dsDNA와 결합한다. Dye가 dsDNA에 결합함으로, excitation 후 극격한 형광이 발산한다. DNA가 증폭 되는 동안, dye 분자가 새로이 합성되는 DNA 가닥에 결합한다. 증가되는 형광값을 real-time으로 볼 수 있다.
