Dnase and protease free rnase a

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in Lithuania

DNase- and Protease-free RNase A is a laboratory reagent used for the degradation and removal of RNA in various biological applications. It is purified to be free of DNase and protease activities, ensuring specificity for RNA. The core function of this product is to enable the selective elimination of RNA from samples, allowing for the isolation and analysis of other biomolecules.

Quantifying DNA Content via Flow Cytometry

Cells were fixed in 70% ethanol overnight and then treated with 0.25 mg/ml DNase- and Protease-free RNase A (ThermoFisher Scientific, 10753721) at 37 °C for 2 h and Proteinase K (Biofroxx, 1151ML010) at 50 °C for 2 h in 50 mM Tris-HCl pH7.5 buffer. The cell suspension was sonified using a Branson sonifier 450 for 5 s with output control 1 and duty cycle constant. Then, cells were stained with a final concentration of 2.4 µM SYTOX Green nucleic acid stain (ThermoFisher Scientific, 1076273). Measurement was performed on the BD LSRFortessa flow cytometer (BD Biosciences) using the BD FACSDiva software (v9.0.1). With low flow rate, 20,000 events were recorded. Analysis was performed with FlowJo (v10.8.0) using the following gating strategy: From the main population in FSC-A vs. SSC-A, doublets were excluded in the SYTOX Green A vs. W channel, and DNA content was assessed in the histogram of the SYTOX Green-A channel (Ex 488 nm, 530/30BP).

Endosomal miRNA Purification and RNase Protection

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To degrade excess free miRNA which were not internalized into endosomes and thus to nullify false positive signal, an RNase protection assay was carried out after in vitro assay, before washing and re-isolating the endosomes. DNase and protease-free RNase A (Thermo Fisher scientific) was used at the concentration of 0.5 unit/μl for 5 min at 37 °C. To ensure the effectivity of Rnase A, a reaction was carried out in the presence of the detergent sodium deoxycholate to disrupt the endosomal membrane and degrade even the miRNA that would have otherwise remained protected from the effect of RNase A. After the RNase A reaction, to remove RNase and excess reactants, vesicles were washed by increasing the volume with diluent buffer and re-isolating them by ultracentrifugation at 1,33,000g for 2 h.

RNA phosphoramidites and solid supports for oligoribonucleotide synthesis were acquired from Glen Research (Sterling, VA, USA); FITC isomer I and other chemicals were supplied by Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA). DNase- and protease-free RNAse A (10 mg/mL) was purchased from Thermo Fisher Scientific (Baltics UAB, Vilnius, Lithuania), and RNAse T1 of Aspergillus oryzae (ammonium sulfate suspension) 362000 U/mg protein, 0.53 mg protein/mL, was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. The total RNA from Escherichia coli (100 μg/mL) was kindly provided by Dr. Nina A. Moor (ICBFM SB RAS). Lipofectamine 3000 was bought from Thermo Fisher Scientific. All other chemicals used in this work were of molecular biology grade or higher. Water was of 18 MΩ grade (purified in a Simplicity 185 water purification system; Millipore, Burlington, MA, USA).

Total RNA was isolated by using column RNA kit (Qiagen) and RNase A DNase and protease-free (ThermoFisher). Af-ter extraction, 1 μg of total RNA was used for RT-PCR by using First-strand cDNA Synthesis Kit (GE Healthcare) ac-cording to the manufacturer׳s instructions. The cDNA was quantified using a Nanodrop 2000C (Thermo Scientific) and stored at -20°C.

Quantifying Trypanosoma cruzi Burden

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Heart tissues were harvested from normal, T. cruzi-infected, and Tc-infected/SIL-treated mice as above. A batch of Tc-infected mice were injected with DMSO (0.5%, 100 µl per mouse, vehicle for dissolving sildenafil) and used to evaluate the potential effect of DMSO on parasite burden. Tissue sections (10 mg) were subjected to Proteinase-K lysis and total DNA extracted by phenol/chloroform extraction/ethanol precipitation method. Total DNA was treated with RNase A (DNase and protease-free, cat#EN0531, from Thermo Scientific) and purified by using DNeasy Mini Spin Columns (Qiagen). Total DNA absorbance was recorded at 260 and 280 nm by using a DU® 800 UV/Visible Spectrophotometer, and DNA concentration ([OD260 – OD320] × 50-µg/ml) and purity (OD260/OD280 ratio of 1.7–2.0) recorded. Total DNA (100 ng) was submitted to a real-time PCR reaction on an iCycler thermal cycler with SYBR Green Supermix (Bio-Rad) and Tc18SrDNA-specific primers (Forward: 5’-TAGTCATATGCTTGTTTC-3’, Reverse: 5’-GCAACAGCATTAATATACGC-3’), and fold change was calculated as above.

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.
