Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
DNA was isolated from single Escherichia coli colonies (QIAprep Spin Miniprep Kit; Qiagen) (Farrar and Donnison 2007 (link)), labeled with digoxygenin-11-dUTP and/or tetramethylrhodamine-5-dUTP (Roche Diagnostics) by nick translation, and used as molecular probes for BAC-FISH. In some cases, two or three BAC clones were simultaneously analyzed in various combinations (multi-BAC-FISH). These studies were carried out on mitotic metaphase chromosomes. Cytological preparations were made from root meristematic tissues, as previously described (Lesniewska et al. 2011 (link)). Slide quality was controlled by observation under a phase-contrast microscope (BX41; Olympus). FISH was performed according to the protocol previously adapted for use in L. angustifolius (Lesniewska et al. 2011 (link); Książkiewicz et al. 2013 (link)). Digoxygenated DNA probes were detected with FITC-conjugated antidigoxigenin primary antibodies (Roche Diagnostics). Chromosomes were counterstained with 2 μg/ml 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) (Sigma) in Vectashield antifade mounting medium (Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA). Preparations were examined under a BX 60 microscope (Olympus) using the Cell_F software (Olympus). The images were captured using a CCD monochromatic camera and superimposed using Micrografx Picture Publisher 8 software (Corel).

Trypanosoma brucei procyclics were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde and 4% acetic acid, air-dried on microscope immunofluorescence slides and dehydrated in serial ethanol baths (50–100%). Probes were labelled with tetramethyl-rhodamine-5-dUTP® (Roche) by using the Nick Translation Mix® (Roche). Slides were then hybridized with a heat-denatured DNA probe under a sealed rubber frame at 94°C for 2 min and then overnight at 37°C. The hybridization solution contained 50% formamide, 10% dextran sulfate, 2X SSPE, 250-mg/ml salmon sperm DNA and 100 ng of labelled double strand DNA probe. After hybridization, parasites were sequentially washed in 50% formamide-2 X SSC at 37°C for 30 min, 2X SSC at 50°C for 10 min, 2X SSC at 60°C for 10 min and 4X SSC at room temperature. Slides were finally mounted in Vectashield (Vector Laboratories) with DAPI and microscopically examined; more than 200 cells per transfected strain were counted. For statistical analysis of centromere localization, data for 200 cells were compared using the chi-square test. After inhibition of TbMlp2 by RNAi, the number of copies of chromosome 1 was determined by using DNA probes targeting the alpha- and beta-tubulin genes (55 (link)).
