Cloning and Expression of HN1L in Insect Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA from BmN cells was extracted by Trizol reagent (Pufei Biotech, Shanghai, China)
according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. The single-strand cDNA was carried out
using the 1st strand cDNA synthesis kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, MA, USA). Based on the
HN1L sequence, specific primers were designed in order to amplify the
gene sequence with relevant restriction sites for the enzymes BamH and
Xho. The HN1L fragments were amplified by PCR,
digested by BamH and Xho and then ligated to the
BamH/Xho-digested pIEX-1 vector, which contained
His-tag. This resulted in the production of the overexpression plasmid
pIEX-1-HN1L. Similarly, the recombinant plasmid
pIEX-1-HN1L-eGFP was constructed. All clones were confirmed by
restriction enzyme digestion and nucleotide sequence analysis.

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.
