Isoprenylcysteine carboxyl methyltransferase RNA [primary]

Primary Reference(s):

Isoprenylcysteine carboxyl methyltransferase RNA

and

Isoprenylcysteine carboxyl methyltransferase RNA

Experiment Id: 6822

Pattern Id: GC16224

Clone number: 346878

GenBank Acc: W78108

Rationale: Relative RNA levels for nearly 10,000 human clones were measured in a microarray experiment. Some of these clones have been linked to known genes (based on clustering information from Unigene) - follow the links to Unigene and GeneCards, where information on possible function can be found. Other clones represent as yet unnamed genes - follow the Unigene link for more information. All gene assignments should be considered tentative. Sequence information for a clone can be found through GenBank or Unigene, and can be used to search sequence databases.

Method: Microarray

Unit: log(mRNA levels in cell line/mRNA levels in reference pool)

Protocol: mRNA was isolated from logarithmically growing cells. Labelled cDNA was prepared by reverse transcription of test cell mRNA in the presence of Cy5-dUTP. Reference probes were made by pooling equal amounts of mRNA from HL-60, K562, NCI-H226, COLO205, SNB-19, LOX-IMVI, OVCAR-3, OVCAR-4, CAKI-1, PC-3, MCF7 and Hs578T cell lines. Labelled cDNA was prepared from the pooled mRNA by reverse transcription in the presence of Cy3-dUTP. Test and reference probes were combined, denatured and hybridized overnight to Synteni microarrays containing cDNA from 9703 human clones. Arrays were scanned using a laser-scanning microscope. The ScanAlyze program was used to analyze the microarray images and prepare data files for further analysis.
