Mean new microRNA data analysis method gives sharper results
June 29th, 2009
Our understanding of the importance of microRNAs in regulating gene expression is expanding, and with it our requirement for robust methods to measure their expression levels. Now a new method published in BioMed Central's open access journal Genome Biology helps researchers to better understand the delicate interplay between differences in microRNA expression levels and their target genes. Following their highly cited method for the analysis of reverse transcription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) expression data for mRNA transcripts, published in Genome Biology in 2007, Jo Vandesompele of the Center for Medical Genetics, Ghent University Hospital, Belgium and colleagues...
