title: Identification of the rat homologue of the mouse capsulin gene by cDNA representational difference analysis.
abstract: Representational difference analysis of cDNA (cDNA RDA) is a PCR-based differential cloning method. We have found that this PCR-based subtraction technique does not have any bias towards smaller DpnII-generated fragments. We have successfully used this method to identify the rat homologue of the mouse capsulin gene.
