The use of multiprobe RPAs is becoming an increasingly popular method for the detection and quantitation of RNA levels in cells and tissues. Here we report that due to a polymorphism in the 3'-noncoding region of the mouse Crg-2/IP-10 gene, the mCK-5 chemokine probe set available from Pharmingen can yield aberrant signal patterns with RNA samples from BALB/c, MRL and possibly other mouse strains that may lead to false conclusions regarding expression of the Crg-2/IP-10 and MCP-1 genes.
多探针核糖核酸酶保护分析(RPA)正日益成为检测和定量细胞及组织中RNA水平的常用方法。我们在此报告,由于小鼠Crg-2/IP-10基因3'-非编码区存在多态性,Pharmingen公司提供的mCK-5趋化因子探针组可能会与BALB/c、MRL以及其他可能的小鼠品系的RNA样本产生异常信号模式,从而可能导致关于Crg-2/IP-10和MCP-1基因表达的错误结论。
