GeneQuery™ Human SUMO1-SUMO1P3 Pseudogene Transcription Analysis qPCR Kit

Pseudogenes are DNA segments introduced into the genome by gene duplication or RNA retrotransposition. The majority of pseudogenes bear high sequence similarity to their corresponding functional genes, but have lost some or all of the functionality. ScienCell's GeneQuery™ Human SUMO1-SUMO1P3 Pseudogene Transcription Analysis qPCR Kit (GQP-SUMO1P3) is designed to facilitate the transcript quantification of pseudogene SUMO1P3 and its corresponding functional gene, SUMO1. Human SUMO1P3 pseudogene and SUMO1 gene are located on chromosome 1 and 2, respectively.  Although SUMO1 gene and SUMO1P3 pseudogene share high sequence similarity, GQP-SUMO1P3 guarantees that each primer set only amplifies the designated gene or pseudogene without cross-amplification for precise quantification.

GeneQuery™ pseudogene transcription analysis qPCR kits are qPCR ready in a 96-well plate format, with each well containing one primer set that can specifically recognize and efficiently amplify a target gene's cDNA. The carefully designed primers ensure that: (i) the optimal annealing temperature in qPCR analysis is 65°C (with 2 mM Mg²⁺, and no DMSO); (ii) the primer set recognizes all known transcript variants of target gene, unless otherwise indicated; and (iii) only one gene or pseudogene is amplified. Each primer set has been validated by qPCR with melt curve analysis and gel electrophoresis.
