Primers gyrA-F (5'-GTGTGCTTTATGCCATGAG-3') and gyrA-R (5’-GGTTTCCTTTTCCAGGTC-3') (24 (link)) were used to amplify 287 bp of the fluoroquinolone resistance-determining region of the gyrA gene. Primers parC-F (5'- CATCGTCTACGCCATGAG-3') and parC-R (5'-AGCAGCACCTCGGAATAG-3') (24 (link)) were used to amplify 267 bp of the fluoroquinolone resistance-determining region of parC. PCR amplification was performed in a 50 μL mixture, containing 1 × PCR buffer, 2.5 mM MgCl2, 0.2 mM mix of deoxynucleotide triphosphates (Fermentas), 10 pmol of each primer, 1 U of Taq DNA Polymerase (Fermentase), and 150 ng of the DNA template.

The CAG tract and flanking region of the ATXN3 gene was PCR amplified by using a pair of primers designed and validated in our laboratory (Table 1). The design was based on the annotated reference sequence for the ATXN3 gene at the National Center for Biotechnology Information database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene, accession number NG_ 008198.2), using the online Primer-BLAST design tool (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/tools/primer-blast).
Briefly, each PCR reaction (50 mL) was prepared on ice, using the following components: 10 mL of 5X Phusion GC Buffer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA), 1 mL of 10 mmol/L deoxynucleotide triphosphates (Thermo Fisher Scientific), forward and reverse primers (Table 1) with a final concentration of 0.5 mmol/L each, 10 to 20 ng of DNA template, 2.5 mL (5%) of dimethyl sulfoxide (Thermo Fisher Scientific), and 0.5 mL (one unit) of Phusion High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase (Thermo Fisher Scientific).

The T7 genomic DNA was purchased from Boca Scientific. The chi6 short DNA (Integrated DNA Technologies) was added at a concentration of 3 µM to prevent the degradation of the linear T7 DNA (57 (link)). dNTPs (deoxynucleotide triphosphates) (Invitrogen) were added to a concentration of 0.1 mM each to enable genome replication, as described before (44 (link)). The PEG8000 (Sigma Aldrich) concentration was increased from 2% (2.5 mM) to 3.5% (4.3 mM) to emulate molecular crowding (43 (link)). Bacteriophages were counted by the standard plaque-forming assay using the E. coli strain B for T7. Cells were grown in Luria–Bertani (LB) broth at 37°C. The plates were prepared as follows: each sample was added to a solution composed of 5 ml of 0.6% liquid LB-agar (45°C) and 50 µl of cell culture, poured on a 1.1% solid LB-agar plate. Plates were incubated at 37°C, and plaques were counted after 6 h.

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.
