Cy3 oo ccctaa 3 pna probe

Manufactured by Panagene

Cy3–OO-(CCCTAA)3 PNA probe is a synthetic DNA-like molecule composed of peptide nucleic acid (PNA) with a cyanine 3 (Cy3) fluorescent label. The core function of this probe is to hybridize with complementary DNA or RNA sequences containing the (CCCTAA)3 repeat, which is commonly found in telomeric regions of chromosomes.

Visualizing Telomeres and APBs in Cells

Cells on coverslips (70–90% confluency) were processed for antibody detection of NR2F2 or NR2C2 with visualization using fluorescence conjugated secondary antibodies (Anti IgG-Alexa488 ab150113, Abcam, UK). Telomeres were detected by in situ hybridization to Cy3–OO-(CCCTAA)3 PNA probe (PANAGENE) in PNA hybridization solution (70% deionized formamide, 0.25% blocking agent (PerkinElmer), 10 mM Tris–HCl, pH7.2)6 (link). Coverslips were mounted with ProLong Gold containing 5 μg/ml of DAPI. APBs were detected by colocalisation of PML (PML primary antibody, sc-966, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, USA; secondary antibody Alexa488 ab150073, Abcam, UK) with telomeres58 (link).

Quantitative fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was carried out as described previously, using Cy3-O-O-(CCCTAA)3 PNA probe (Panagene) (29 (link)). A detailed protocol is provided in Supplementary methods. Images were acquired using Zeiss Axioplan 2. Telomeric signals were quantified with iVision software (Chromaphor) and corrected for the average local background. Statistical analyses were done using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test.

Primary murine embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) were fixed with 2% paraformaldehyde for 15 min followed by permeabilization (0.2% Triton X-100in PBS) for 15 min. Cells were then blocked (2% BSA, 20% goat serum in PBS) for 2 h. Cells were immuno-stained with mouse anti-γH2AX monoclonal antibody (1:500; Upstate, Billerica, MA) overnight and goat anti-mouse 594 secondary antibody (1:1000) for 1 h. Cells were then fixed in 2% paraformaldehyde for 5 min. Samples were dehydrated in 70%, 95%, 100% ethanol (5 min each) and then denatured for 10 min at 80 °C in hybridization solution (70% deionized formamide, 10% NEN blocking reagent [Roche], 0.1 M Tris-HCl [pH 7.4], MgCl2 buffer [82 mM NaH2PO4, 9 mM citric acid, 20 mM MgCl2], and 0.5 µg/mL Cy3-OO-(CCCTAA)3 PNA probe (Panagene, South Korea). After 2 h hybridization at room temperature, the samples were washed twice with 70% deionized formamide in 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.2. Samples were counterstained with DAPI, mounted onto slides with Gelvatol and images were acquired with a Nikon A1 confocal microscope (Nikon Instruments, Inc.).

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.
