The inhibition of yeast topoisomerase II was analysed according to the relaxation assay kit from Inspiralis (Inspiralis Limited, Norwich, UK). Briefly, 250 ng of supercoiled pBR322 DNA (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), 1 mM ATP (Inspiralis Limited, UK), and 1–200 μM of the analysed compound were mixed with reaction buffer (1 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.9), 10 mM KCl, 0.5 mM MgCl2, 0.2 % (by volume) glycerol). The reaction was initiated by the addition of an enzyme, allowed to proceed at 30 °C for 30 min and terminated by addition of 40% (m/V) sucrose, 100 mM Tris-HCl pH 8, 10 mM EDTA, and 0.5 mg mL−1 Bromophenol Blue. Two-step extraction with chloroform:isoamyl alcohol (24:1, by volume) and butanol water was performed and mixtures were analysed on 1% agarose gel in 1 × TAE buffer, 3h, 4.5 V cm−1. Gel was stained in GelRed 3 × staining solution (Biotium, Fremont, CA, USA) for 30 min and photographed with Gel Doc XR+Gel Documentation System (Bio-Rad: Hercules, CA, USA).

DNA-Ligand Binding Assay Using Agarose Gel Electrophoresis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Assays were performed using 1.2% (w/v) agarose gels. A plasmid pBR322 DNA was purchased from Thermofisher Scientific® at 0.5 μg μL−1 concentration in phosphate buffer 50 mM (pH 7.4). A 20 μL portion containing 0.125 μg μL−1 of DNA in 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.6) and 1 mM EDTA was incubated with increasing volumes of the stock solution of 11Cl (1 mM in DMSO) at ri values ranging from 0.05 to 0.5 (ri = [complex]/[no. nucleotide]). Samples were incubated at 37 °C for 24 h, after which 2 μL of the TriTrack DNA loading dye buffer was added. 20 μL of the sample was loaded in the agarose gel (1.2% w/v), and electrophoresis was carried out for a period of 100 min at 40 V in TAE 1× (Tris-acetate/EDTA) buffer. After electrophoresis, the gel was immersed in 200 mL of TAE 1× buffer containing 20 μL of a stock solution of SYBR safe for 30 min to stain the DNA. Then, the gel was washed with Mili Q water for 10 min and the stained gel was analyzed with a blue light in a Safe Imager™ 2.0 (Invitrogen).

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.
