Popis: We have established a method by which the performance of reverse transcriptase coupled polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for seeking a new gene is improved. The actual procedure is quite easy: it is only to add several specific oligonucleotides into the reaction mixture of the usual RT-PCR. To verify the effectiveness of this method is also easy: it is only to detect the PCR products in the preliminary experiment. The finding in the present study provides valuable information for gene cloning tactics.
