cDNA was generated using random hexamer oligonucleotides.
RNA (1 μg) was converted to cDNA in a 50 μl reaction containing 1 U of avian myeloblastosis virus reverse transcriptase (New England Biolabs, Beverly, MA, USA), 1 mM dNTP's, and 10 μg/ml random hexamer primers in 1× reverse transcriptase buffer at 42°C for 50 min; the reaction was terminated by heating to 90°C for 10 min.
The second round of amplification utilized 0.5 to 1 μg aRNA as starting material and resembled the first round, except for random hexamer pd(N)6 (Boehringer Mannheim, Igelheim, Germany) used in the reverse-transcription reaction in place of the template-switch primer.
