Abstract excerpt
We have developed a rapid method for identifying functional promoter-region polymorphisms. Using a modified pGL3 luciferase expression T-vector, we can amplify by PCR, clone, identify allelic pairs of a polymorphic gene promoter region, and prepare plasmids for cell culture 10 promoters (20 allele pairs) per week per researcher. By utilizing 96-well plate technology and an internal control plasmid expressing...
