Primers for Davenport's Real-Time PCR experiment

Primers were ordered 2009 May from Sigma Aldrich

(designed using PrimerPlus3)

Primers were ordered 2009 March from Sigma Aldrich (NB: these primers worked fine in a test RT-PCR, but Andre said the product sizes should be 100-150bp, and the Tm's should be closer together. So, we redesigned and ordered primers above).

Primers for Real-Time PCR

Looked at primers from Yamamoto et al. 2008 PMID 17957211 using Applied Biosystems, but ended up designing own primers above.
