Kit For Detection of Genes Targeted by MicroRNA, and Method For Detection of Genes Targeted by MicroRNA

摘要

Provided is a detection kit for detecting target genes of miRNA. Also provided is a method of detecting target genes of miRNA in a simple manner without the need for performing a transfection operation of a gene into cells via a vector. The detection kit is a detection kit for target genes of microRNA, including a cell extraction reagent, and a labeling reagent for microRNA or labeled microRNA, and further including a reaction reagent for the labeling substance for microRNA. mRNA corresponding to target genes of miRNA can be easily pulled down by producing a cell extract under mild conditions, adding labeled miRNA to the cell extract, and recovering the labeling substance. cDNA is produced from the pulled down mRNA to detect target genes of miRNA.
