Accurate normalization of real-time quantitative RT-PCR data by geometric averaging of multiple internal control genes

Jo Vandesompele, Katleen De Preter, Filip Pattyn, Bruce Poppe, Nadine Van Roy, Anne De Paepe, Frank Speleman Genome Biology 2002, 3:research0034-research0034.11 (18 June 2002)

Abstract | Full text | PDF | PubMed | Cited on BioMed Central | 1 comment |  Editor’s summary

Using real-time reverse transcription PCR ten housekeeping genes from different abundance and functional classes in various human tissues were evaluated. The conventional use of a single gene for normalization leads to relatively large errors in a significant proportion of samples tested.

Protein microarrays for highly parallel detection and quantitation of specific proteins and antibodies in complex solutions

Brian B Haab, Maitreya J Dunham, Patrick O Brown Genome Biology 2001, 2:research0004-research0004.13 (22 January 2001)

Abstract | Full text | PDF | PubMed | Cited on BioMed Central |  Editor’s summary

A method is described for printing protein microarrays and using them in a comparative fluorescence assay to measure the abundance of specific proteins in complex solutions. Antigens or antibodies were spotted onto the arrays, and accurate measurements of their cognate ligands were made at concentrations of 1.6 μg/ml or below. Some antibody-antigen pairs allowed detection of the cognate ligands at absolute concentrations below 1 ng/ml and partial concentrations of less than 1 part in 106, sensitivities sufficient for measurement of many clinically important proteins in patient blood samples.

Abstract | Full text | PDF | PubMed | Cited on BioMed Central |  Editor’s summary

Potassium channels, tetrameric integral membrane proteins that form aqueous pores through which K+ can flow, are found in virtually all organisms; the genomes of humans, Drosophila, and Caenorhabditis elegans contain 30-100 K+ channel genes each. The structure of a bacterial K+ channel, sequence comparisons with other channels and electrophysiological measurements have enabled conclusions about the mechanism of gating and ion flow to be drawn for many other channels.
