Digoxigenin labelled nucleotides

Manufactured by Roche

Digoxigenin labelled nucleotides are synthetic DNA or RNA molecules that have been modified by the addition of a digoxigenin label. Digoxigenin is a steroid compound that can be used to detect and locate specific DNA or RNA sequences in various applications, such as in situ hybridization, Southern blotting, and Northern blotting. These labelled nucleotides can be incorporated into the target sequence during amplification or synthesis, allowing for the subsequent detection and analysis of the labelled molecules.

In Situ Hybridization Probe Synthesis

To prepare in situ hybridization probes, DNA templates were obtained by linearization of plasmids containing atoh7 and ccnd1 cDNAs using the EcoRI and NotI restriction enzymes, respectively. RNA probes were synthesised by in vitro transcription. Appropriate polymerases (T7, T3; Promega) and digoxigenin-labelled nucleotides (Roche) were used for the synthesis of antisense RNAs according to manufacturer's instructions. Synthesized probes were purified using RNAeasy kit (Qiagen). Embryos were fixed and processed as previously described (Thisse and Thisse, 2008) and hybridization signals were detected using anti-digoxigenin-AP antibody (1:4000; 11093274910, Roche) and the NBT/BCIP chromogenic substrate (1:3.5; Roche). After the procedure, embryos were fixed and stored at 4°C until imaging

Whole-mount immunolabelling procedures were performed as previously described [34 (link),76 (link)]. For antibody staining of cryosections, embryos were first protected by sequential incubation in 15% then 30% sucrose in phosphate-buffered saline supplemented with 0.5% Triton X-100 (PBST) for 12–16 hours at 4°C, embedded in OCT, stored at –80°C, and sectioned at 16–20μm using a Leica cryostat. γ-tubulin (Sigma; 1:200); GFP (AMS Biotechnology TP401; 1:1000); anti-acetylated tubulin (IgG2b, Sigma; 1:500); anti-SV2 (IgG1, DSHB; 1:500); BrdU (Roche; 1:300); PH3 (Upstate Biochemical; 1:500);Rho4D2(Abcam; 1:200); zpr-1 (ZIRC; 1:50) antibodies were used.
Antisense mRNA probes for whole-mount in situ hybridisation were synthesised using RNA polymerases (Promega) and digoxigenin labelled nucleotides (Roche) following manufacturer's instructions. Whole-mount in situ hybridisations were performed essentially as previously described [33 (link)]. TUNEL labelling to detect apoptosis was performed using the ApopTag Kit (Chemicon International). In ordered to block apoptosis, 24hpf embryos were treated with 300 μM of caspase inhibitor (Z-VAD-FMK, Sigma).

Synthesis of Digoxigenin-Labeled RNA Probes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNA antisense probes were synthesized by transcription of linearized DNA from plasmids or from cDNA amplified with specific primers (S2 Table ). Transcription was carried out with digoxigenin labelled nucleotides (Roche) and T7 RNA polymerase (Roche). Synthesized RNA was precipitated with 0.8M ammonium acetate in 75% ethanol or 0.1M LiCl in 75% ethanol and finally resuspended in 50% formamide-50%

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.
