Identifying and quantifying small RNAs

One-step RT-PCR methods, compositions and kits for the detection and quantification of small RNAs in a sample are disclosed. The one-step RT-PCR approach involves polyadenylation of a small RNA followed by reverse transcription with a first primer containing a poly(T) sequence and at least two 3′ nucleotides complementary to the 3′ terminal end nucleotides of the small RNA, to produce a cDNA. This may be followed by PCR amplification using the same first primer as the revere primer and a second, forward primer in which a portion of its sequence is complementary to the 3′ terminal end of the cDNA. This may be then followed by detection and / or quantification of the amplified product.

Human soluble neuropilin-1 primary polyadenylation signal and uses thereof

The human soluble neuropilin-1 (sNRP) polyadenylation signal (sNRP-poly(A)), situated downstream of the GT splice donor site of intron 12 of the full-length neuropilin-1 gene, also functions as the termination codon for sNRP. This 17 nucleotide sequence efficiently facilitates addition of poly(A) tails to RNAs expressed in cells. The present invention shows that this optimally succinct sequence has similar activity to the SV40 polyadenylation signal that is currently used in expression vectors. By using this shorter dual termination / polyadenylation signal and avoiding the need for large and cumbersome polyadenylation signals, expression vectors may be engineered to carry considerably larger genes.

Multi-gene expression constructs containing modified inteins

InactiveUS20050283850A1Prevent ligation reactionEasy resectionSugar derivativesHydrolasesEucaryotic cellPoly-A RNA
Methods and constructs for the introduction of multiple genes into plants using a single transformation event are described. Constructs contain a single 5′ promoter operably linked to DNA encoding a modified intein splicing unit. The splicing unit is expressed as a polyprotein and consists of a first protein fused to an intein fused to a second protein. The splicing unit has been engineered to promote excision of all non-essential components in the polyprotein but prevent the ligation reactions normally associated with protein splicing. Additional genetic elements encoding inteins and additional proteins can be fused in frame to the 5′-terminus of the coding region for the second protein to form a construct for expression of more than two proteins. A single 3′ termination sequence, such as a polyadenylation sequence when the construct is to be expressed in eucaryotic cells, follows the last coding sequence. These methods and constructs are particularly useful for creating plants with stacked input traits, illustrated by glyphosate tolerant plants producing BT toxin, and / or value added products, illustrated by the production of polyhydroxyalkanoates in plants.

The invention relates to application of cordycepin in in-vitro maturation culture of oocytes of small pig follicles, which belongs to the field of auxology of animals. Degrees of polyadenylation of the maternal genes consisting of cyclinB1, C-mos, GDF9, BMP15 and Cdc2 in oocytes determine expression levels of the genes, which has certain promotion effects on the recruitment process where small follicles become dominant follicles and on maturation of oocytes. The expression levels of the genes consisting of C-mos, GDF9 and BMP15 play a leading role in maturation of the oocytes of small follicles. Addition of a 3'-dA inhibitor can improve the expression levels of the genes consisting of C-mos, GDF9 and BMP15, so the maturation rate of the small follicles is increased. The technology of in-vitro maturation culture of oocytes is expected to be popularized and applied in research fields like transgenic technology, nuclear transplantation technology and embryonic stem cell technology.
