Abstract

Combining the long serial analysis of gene expression (LongSAGE) and the generation of longer cDNA fragments from serial analysis of gene expression tags for gene identification (GLGI) technique, a new strategy called modified GLGI (M-GLGI) was developed to isolate unknown 3′ expressed sequence tags (ESTs) and discover novel genes. A 17 bp LongSAGE tag was used as sense primer instead of a 10-base SAGE tag; PCR reaction was performed under an appropriate annealing temperature for each tag; universal DNA polymerase was used in PCR amplification instead of Pfu enzyme; a common cloning strategy using pMD-18T vector and Escherichia coli DH5α cells were used instead of a special vector and competent cells. Moreover, ESTs isolated by M-GLGI had 3′ ends with the polyadenylation signals and poly(dA) tails. This method is more sensitive for identifying genes expressed in low abundance than conventional EST sequencing.
