Reagent | Nomenclature | Legend |
|---|---|---|
RNA Transcript | ERCC-nnnnn-vv | nnnnn = unique 5-digit sequence number vv = 2 digit version number |
PCR primer/probe microarray probe | ERCC-nnnnn-vv- pppp-lll-aaa | pppp = 4-digit positional location relative to the 0th base at the 5' end of the transcript sequence lll = primer/probe length aaa = nucleic acid sequence of the initial triplet of the primer/probe (complement of the RNA sequence at pppp, pppp+1, pppp+2) |
