1 μg of isolated mtDNA was linearized with SacI, precipitated and dissolved in 10 mM Tris HCl pH 7.5. The DNA was hydrolyzed with 0.3 M NaOH at 55°C or digested with RNase H2 (New England Biolabs) at 37°C for 2 h. Samples were run on a 0.8% agarose alkaline gel (30 mM NaOH, 1 mM EDTA) at 25 V, 4°C for 20 h and blotted onto Hybond-N+ membrane (Amersham, GE Healthcare). Single-stranded probes were end-labelled with γ-32P ATP using T4 polynucleotide kinase (Thermo Scientific) following the manufacturer’s protocol. Double-stranded probes were generated by labelling an approximately 500 bp PCR product with α-32P dCTP using Prime-It II Random Primer Labeling kit (Agilent Technologies). Hybridization was for 16 h at 42°C for ssDNA probes and at 65°C for dsDNA probes. The membrane was exposed to a PhosphoImager screen and scanned in a Typhoon laser scanner (GE Healthcare). The radioactive intensity was quantified using ImageJ software and plotted on a distribution plot. The median size of alkali-treated products was determined from the distribution of the radioactivity intensity and related to the size marker that was run in parallel [7 (link)].

Isolated DNA (1.8 μg) was incubated for 1 hour at 37°C with or without RNase H2 (NEB). Primer extension was performed with 2 U Taq DNA polymerase (NEB) in 1X ThermoPol buffer, 200 μM dNTPs and 1.5 pmol labeled primer. The primers were 5´-end labeled with PNK (NEB) and γ-[32P]ATP and were corresponding to L-strand positions 8-29 (GGT CTA TCA CCC TAT TAA CCA C) and 16,331-16,351 (CAC ACA TCA ACT GCA ACT CCA). The primer extension reaction was performed with 5 minutes at 95°C, 30 seconds at 95°C, 30 seconds at 58°C, 45 seconds at 72°C and 5 minutes at 72°C with step 2-4 repeated in 20 cycles. The reactions were stopped and ethanol precipitated as for replication initiation reactions. The sequencing ladders were prepared with USB Sequenase Version 2.0 (Affymetrix) according to the manufacturers protocol. The primer extension experiment was performed multiple times with similar results and the figure shows a representative gel image for that experiment.

Fluorescently labelled 41mer TERRA or 41mer TelDNA (50 nM) were pre-incubated for 10 minutes at 37 °C with increasing concentration of RAD51 in 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 1 mM MgCl2 supplemented with 1 mM CaCl2 and 1 mM AMP-PNP. Reaction was started by addition of 600 ng of pCR4-TOPO vector containing the 15q subtelomeric sequence followed by 15 copies of TTAGGG repeats. The mixture was incubated for another 10 minutes at 37 °C and then stopped by addition of SDS (0,1%) and proteinase K (0.1 mg/ml) followed by 3 minutes incubations at 37 °C. Reaction mixtures were separated on 0.8% agarose gel and analyzed as described for EMSA. For digestion of R-loops by RNaseH, the mixtures were inhibited for 1 minute with PMSF (2 mM) and with EGTA (1.6 mM) at 37°C to inhibit proteinase K and chelate calcium ions, respectively. The products were digested by RNaseH1 (6.8 mU/μl, Thermo Scientific™) or RNaseH2 (6.8 mU/μl, New England Biolabs) for 1 minute at 37 °C and resolved as described above. For antibody-specific supershift of R-loops, the products were formed as described for RNaseH digestion followed by incubation with S9.6 antibodies (0.02 μg/μl) for 2 minutes at 37°C and/or anti-mouse horseradish peroxidase conjugated antibody

2.5 μL of XlAPE2, as a 200 nM stock in storage buffer (5
mM Tris pH 8.0, 75 mM NaCl, 0.5 mM TCEP, 0.5 mM MgCl2, 50% glycerol), or
2.5 μL of 1 U/μL APE1 (NEB) was added to 2.5 μL 200
nM substrate, 1 uL 10x reaction buffer (100 mM Tris pH 8.0, 10 mM TCEP,
10 mM MnCl2, 1 mg/mL BSA) and 4 μL ddH2O at

XlAPE2 and 50 nM substrate. For nuclease assays in the presence of PCNA,

timepoints, 10 μL reactions were stopped by the addition of 20
μL of formamide buffer (98% formamide, 10 mM EDTA) and immediate
denaturation at 95°C for 5 minutes. Samples were resolved on 20%
polyacrylamide TBE-Urea gels, imaged on a Typhoon 9500 imager (GE
Healthcare), and viewed using ImageJ. For RNase H2 (NEB) reactions, 2

buffer (200 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.8, 100 mM
(NH4)2SO4, 100 mM KCl, 20 mM MgSO4,
1% Triton X-100).

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.
