Differential level of PGR gene expression on Alu -absent or -present allele. A) PCR combined with Pyrosequencing shows similar proportion of C (Alu-absent; 53.3%) and T allele (Alu-present; 46.7%) in genomic DNA. Reverse transcription-PCR coupled with Pyrosequencing shows different proportion of C (Alu-absent; 89.5%) and T allele (Alu-present; 10.5%). B) Representative program of genotyping and gene expression.
