  • Patent number: 8080652
    Abstract: The present invention provides novel compositions and methods for suppressing the expression of a targeted gene using mRNA-cDNA duplexes. The invention further provides novel methods and compositions for generating amplified mRNA-cDNA hybrids, whose quantity is high enough to be used for the invention's gene silencing transfection. This improved RNA-polymerase chain reaction method uses thermocycling steps of promoter-linked double-stranded cDNA or RNA synthesis, in vitro transcription and then reverse transcription to amplify the amount of mRNA-cDNA hybrids up to two thousand folds within one round of the above procedure.

  • Patent number: 6197554
    Abstract: The present invention provides a fast, simple and specific method for generating a complete full-length cDNA library from single cells. The first reverse transcription of intracellular mRNAs with an oligo(dT)n-promoter primer introduces a recognition site for following transcription of newly reverse-transcribed cDNAs. The poly-nucleotide tailing of above cDNAs in addition to aforementioned promoter region further forms binding templates for specific PCR amplification. After repeating the reverse transcription, transcription, reverse transcription and PCR procedure, we can multiply a single copy of mRNA to two billion folds by calculation based upon the comparison between the amount of a synthesized cDNA library and that of theoretically presumed mRNAs within a cell (0.1 pg). In conjunction with a cell fixation and permeabilization step, the complete full-length cDNA library can be directly generated from few single cells without mRNA degradation.
