Real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR or qPCR) is revolutionizing many aspects of molecular biology and becoming the gold standard for accurate, sensitive, and fast quantification of gene expression. Relatively new, it also is experiencing growing pains.
Key challenges right now include finding the right reference gene and improving data analysis. As its popularity grows, new-kid-on-the-block technologies such as two-dimensional RT-qPCR and multiplex digital RT-qPCR are proliferating.
