Here we describe a reliable method for isolating genes that are
differentially expressed in two cell populations. The method is a
combination of subtractive hybridization and PCR. Among many improvements
to previously described methods is the incorporation of a new technology
into the procedure which sterilizes(inactivates) PCR amplicons, and thereby
overcomes the limitation of similar procedures. To test this improved
method, we conducted a search for estrogen- responsive genes.
Estrogen-regulated genes dominated the subtracted libraries after four
rounds of subtractive hybridizations. Four estrogen-regulated genes were
identified from the initial screening.
