The largest database of trusted experimental protocols

Single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) is a type of DNA molecule that consists of a single strand of nucleotides. ssDNA is commonly used as a starting material in various molecular biology applications, such as DNA sequencing, PCR amplification, and probe synthesis. The core function of ssDNA is to provide a template for downstream processes and analyses.

Radiolabeling of DNA Probes

Detailed design information and probe sequences are listed in the (Additional file 1: Table S1). ssDNAs were purchased from Integrated DNA Technologies (Coralville, IA). Probes were generated by hybridization of equimolar amounts of complementary ssDNAs in 1× STE buffer (10 mM Tris, 100 mM NaCl, and 1 mM EDTA), heating to 95 °C for 5 min, followed by incubation at room temperature for 1 h. After hybridization, dsDNA probes were 5′-radiolabeled with 10 pmoles of [γ-33P] ATP using T4 polynucleotide kinase (New England Biolabs, Ipswich, MA). Radiolabeled DNA probes were purified from unincorporated label with G-25 Sephadex columns (Roche Applied Science; Indianapolis, IN).

Dithiothreitol (DTT), NaCl, MgCl2, 1× PBS buffer, glacial acetic acid, hydrochloric acid, DMSO, titanium (IV) isopropoxide, guanidine HCl (Gu-HCl) and potassium chloride (KCl) were obtained from Fisher Scientific. Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) was acquired from Sigma-Aldrich. Tris base, EDTA and ethanol (EtOH) was obtained from Acros Organics, Promega and Decon Labs, respectively. The 5× Taq polymerase and the 25-mM magnesium chloride (MgCl2) solution used for PCR were from New England Biolabs. The ssDNAs, including the random libraries used for SELEX, the anti-IgE aptamer, as well as those found binding to DNMT1 (Supplementary Tables S1 and S3) were attained from Integrated DNA Technologies, Inc. Beta-casein, cytochrome C, ovalbumin, and hemoglobin were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. IgE was acquired from Athens Research & Technology, 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.
