The reverse transcription system provides reagents to efficiently reverse transcribe rna into cdna in 15 minutes. Rna that passes the quality test is used to synthesise cdna, which is used as template in the final qpcr assay. The degree of complementarity between two nucleic acid strands may vary, from total complementarity to none.
The process of transcription that is making rna from dna employs an enzyme called rna polymerase. We detail a procedure to convert rna into the more stable cdna product using a commercially available kit. Use the ncbi blast service to perform a similarity search. Reverse transcriptases rts use an rna template and a short primer complementary to the 3 end of the rna to direct the synthesis of the first strand cdna, which can be used directly as a template for the polymerase chain reaction pcr.
