In order to re-evaluate the presence and relative quantity of 2b and 2x/d myosin heavy chain (MyHC) transcripts in rat slow soleus muscle by using real time RT-PCR we have compared the available relevant cDNA sequences and designed a new set of primers having similar melting temperatures, matching separate MyHC exons in the regions of maximal differences in MyHC coding sequences, and containing G or C at the 3 -end. These also yielded PCR products of corresponding length, which is an important requirement for real time RT-PCR quantification. The experiments were performed on 8-month-old inbred female Lewis strain rats used in our current study of regenerating transplanted muscles. The real time RT-PCR measurement confirmed the expression of all four MyHC mRNAs (type 1, 2a, 2x/d and 2b) in both fast extensor digitorum longus and slow soleus muscles, although in the soleus muscle of adult rats, only type 1 and 2a protein isoforms can be usually detected.
