Direct in situ reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction [PDF]
In situ hybridization has been used for localization of specific nucleic acid sequences at the cellular level despite providing relatively low-detection sensitivity. In situ reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reactions (RT-PCR) enhance sensitivity and thus enable localization of low-abundance mRNA in a cell.
