The combination of prospective identification/isolation of bone marrow progenitors and quantitative RT-PCR is a powerful tool to understand the molecular mechanism underlying hematopoiesis. Describes the standard procedures of the murine myeloid progenitor staining for fluorescence activated cells sorting (FACS) and RNA purification methods. - [Read Cell Staining for Sorting of Hematopoietic Stem Cells (HSC) and Myeloid Progenitors]

To accurately predict the activity of a transgene it is critical to understand its location and dynamics in the 3-D interphase nucleus. Developed in situ methods to visualize transgenes (including single copy genes) & their transcripts during interphase from different tissues & plant species. These techniques reduce the time necessary for characterization of transgene integration by eliminating the need for time-consuming segregation analysis and extend characterization to the interphase nucleus - [Read In Situ Methods to Localize Transgenes and Transcripts in Interphase Nuclei]

SAGE is a new method that has been invented at Johns Hopkins University in USA to give scientists an overview of a cell’s complete gene activity. It works by capturing RNAs, identifying them and counting them. By comparing different types of cells, the researchers hope to generate profiles that will help them understand healthy cells and what goes wrong during diseases. Includes: How SAGE works and Steps of SAGE. - [Read Serial Analysis Of Gene Expression (SAGE)]
