Quantifying dsDNA using Gel Electrophoresis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Gel electrophoresis was used to quantify the dsDNA content on each paper layer after ITP of the dsDNA ladder. Gel electrophoresis was chosen for two reasons. First, most common dsDNA stains, such as SYBR gold or EtBr, exhibit a high background on cellulose paper, and this makes it difficult to visualize and quantify the amount of dsDNA. Second, the dsDNA ladder is comprised of twelve dsDNA components having lengths ranging from 100 to 1517 bp. Gel electrophoresis can separate them and provides quantitative information for each component of the ladder.
The gel electrophoresis analyses were conducted as follows. First, each fold of the paper was cut off, dried, and then inserted into a 1.3% agarose gel containing 10 µg/mL EtBr (Figure S2). Control samples were prepared by drying 1.0 µL of the 500 µg/mL dsDNA ladder stock solution in the paper zone. Gel electrophoresis was run using 1× TAE (containing 40.0 mM tris, 20.0 mM acetic acid, and 1.0 mM EDTA) buffer for 50 min at 100 V (Lambda LLS9120 DC Power Supply). A Typhoon Trio fluorescence scanner (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ) was used to image the gel, followed by ImageJ software analysis.

Reactions were carried out using intasomes purified by size exclusion chromatography. A standard reaction contained 1.25 μg of intasome and 5 μg of nucleosome in 300 μl of 240 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 4 μM ZnCl2, 25 mM BisTris propane-HCl, pH 7.45. Strand transfer was allowed to proceed for 15 min at 37 °C, and the reaction was stopped by addition of 0.5% SDS and 25 mM EDTA. DNA products, deproteinized by digestion with 30 μg proteinase K at 37 °C for 1 h and ethanol precipitation, were separated in 4-12% TBE PAGE gels. Fluorescein-labeled DNA was detected using a Typhoon TRIO fluorescence scanner (GE Healthcare); non-labeled DNA was visualized by staining with GelRed. Strand transfer assays using naked supercoiled plasmid target DNA was done according to published procedures2 (link).

Chlamydomonas Gene Expression Using Venus

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The open reading frames (ORFs) of Chlamydomonas genes were expressed in frame with Venus from the PsaD promoter using the pLM005 vector. ORFs were amplified from genomic DNA using Phusion Hotstart II polymerase (Thermo Fisher Scientific, www.thermofisher.com) with the respective oligos in Table S1. HpaI‐cut pLM005 vector and PCR products were gel purified and assembled by Gibson assembly (Gibson et al., 2009). Due to the large gene length of HLA3, it was cloned in two fragments then assembled in the pLM005 vector by Gibson assembly. The pLM005 vector contains the AphVIII gene for paromomycin resistance in Chlamydomonas and ampicillin resistance for bacterial selection. All construct junctions were verified by Sanger sequencing. Constructs were transformed into Chlamydomonas by electroporation as in Zhang et al. (2014). Briefly, 250 μL of 2 × 108 cells/mL was transformed with 14.5 ng/kbp of EcoRV‐cut plasmid at 16 °C. Cells were spread on 86 mL TAP agar plates containing paromomycin (20 μg/mL) and kept in low light (~10 μmol photons/m2/s) until colonies were ~2–3 mm in diameter. Plates were screened for fluorescent colonies using a Typhoon TRIO fluorescence scanner (GE Healthcare, www.gelifesciences.com) with excitation/emission wavelengths 532 nm/520–555 nm for Venus and 633 nm/630–670 nm for chlorophyll autofluorescence.

Quantifying RNA-Peptide Interactions via EMSA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs) were performed using a Bio-Rad Mini-Protean gel system paired with a direct current (DC) power source (PowerPac™ HC, Bio-Rad). Typically, 6 μL solutions containing ds RNA (c = 3 µM) and N-terminally fluorescein-isothiocyanate-labeled peptide (c = 6 µM) were incubated for 1 hour at 4 °C in a binding buffer of 10 mM Tris (pH = 8.0), 0.5 mM EDTA, 12.5 % glycerol, and 150 mM KCl. After incubation, bound RNA was resolved from peptide-free RNA using 10 % non-denaturing polyacrylamide gels at 120 V in running buffer (25 mM Tris (pH = 8.0), 200 mM glycine, 20 mM NaCl) at 4 °C for 1 hour. Visualization of fluorescent gel-bound species was conducted using a Typhoon Trio + fluorescence scanner (GE Healthcare Life Sciences). For nucleic acid visualization gels were stained using 2 µL of SYBR™ gold nucleic acid gel dye (Molecular Probes) in 20 mL of 1×TAE buffer (40 mM Tris, 1 mM EDTA, 20 mM acetic acid) for 45 minutes at RT before being visualized using a FluorChem™ gel documentation system (Alpha Innotech).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
