3. Digest the double stranded cDNA with a sequence specific restriction enzyme (an anchoring enzyme) that cleaves most transcripts at least once. Nla III is used as an anchoring enzyme since Nla III sites are known to occur approximately every 250 bp.

to the Nla III digested cDNA, a Type IIS restriction enzyme (tagging enzyme) recognition site at the 32 end, and priming sites for PCR amplification.

5. Cleave with Type IIS restriction enzyme (tagging enzyme), BsmF I. The yp y ( gg g y ),tagging enzyme binds to the recognition sequence in the adapter and cleaves the cDNA 10-14 bp downstream from the recognition site releasing a ~50-bp tag with a 4-bp overhang at the 52 end. The tag consists of ~40 bp of adapter sequence and 10-14 bp of unique sequence from a single transcript.

LIMITATIONS• Does not measure the actual expression level of a gene• Does not measure the actual expression level of a gene.

• Average size of a tag produced during SAGE analysis is ten bases and thismakes it difficult to assign a tag to a specific transcript with accuracy

• Two different genes could have the same tag and the same gene that isalternatively spliced could have different tags at the 3' ends

• Assigning each tag to an mRNA transcript could be made even more difficultand ambiguous if sequencing errors are also introduced in the process

Page 32: Functional genomics - medical.mums.ac.ir

• Quantitation bias:• Contamination of large quantities of linker-dimer molecules.• low efficiency in blunt end ligation.• Amplification bias.p

• Depending upon anchoring enzyme and tagging enzyme used, some fraction of mRNA species would be lost.

SAGE is one of the techniques used in the National Cancer Institute–funded Cancer GenomeAnatomy Project (CGAP). y j ( )

A database with archived SAGE tag counts and on-line query toolswas created - the largest source of public SAGE data.

More than 3 million tags from 88 different libraries have been gdeposited on the National Center for BiotechnologyEducation/CGAP SAGEmap web site (http://www ncbi nlm nih gov/SAGE/)(http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/SAGE/).

Page 46: Functional genomics - medical.mums.ac.ir

Several interesting patterns have emerged. g p g◦ cancerous and normal cells derived from the same tissue type are very

similar.◦ tumors of the same tissue of origin but of different histological type or

grade have distinct gene expression patterns◦ cancer cells usually increase the expression of genes associated with

proliferation and survival and decrease the expression of genes involved indifferentiationdifferentiation.

SAGE studies have been performed in patients with colon, pancreatic, lung bladder ovarian and breast cancerslung, bladder, ovarian, and breast cancers.

SAGE experiments validated in multiple tumor and normal tissue pairs using a variety of approaches including Northern blot analysis pairs using a variety of approaches, including Northern blot analysis, real-time PCR, mRNA in situ hybridization, andimmunohistochemistry.
