SYBR Green qPCR primers for detecting human TSPO (translocator protein, also called PBR) gene expression by real-time PCR. Each set comes with primer sequences and reaction conditions.
Human TSPO qPCR Primer Set – translocator protein
Also known as: BPBS, BZRP, DBI, IBP, MBR, PBR, PBS, PKBS, PTBR, TSPO1, mDRC, pk18
About this gene: Present mainly in the mitochondrial compartment of peripheral tissues, the protein encoded by TSPO interacts with some benzodiazepines and has different affinities than its endogenous counterpart. The protein is a key factor in the flow of cholesterol into mitochondria to permit the initiation of steroid hormone synthesis.
Gene details: NCBI Gene ID: 706; HGNC ID: HGNC:1158; UniProt: P30536; RefSeq (MANE Select): NM_000714.6; Chromosome location: 22q13.2
What you get: Primers are provided as a 40 µl solution containing both primers at a final concentration of 50 µM in 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 0.1 mM EDTA. Dilute with H2O as needed prior to use. This amount is sufficient for 1,000 PCR reactions of 20 µl, assuming a final primer concentration of 0.1 µM.
