Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Genomic DNA was extracted from young leaves of greenhouse-grown plantlets using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide method17 . The presence of each of the transferred genes was confirmed by PCR with gene-specific primers (Supplementary Table 2).
For Southern blot, 30 μg of plant genomic DNA was digested overnight at 37°C by 100U of EcoRV, a restriction enzyme that cuts T-DNA constructs used in this study at a single position inside nnHispS coding region. After gel electrophoresis, digestion products were transferred onto Amersham Hybond-N+ membrane (GE Healthcare, UK) and immobilized. The DNA probe was constructed by PCR using cloned synthetic nnluz gene as the template and nnluz-specific primers listed in Supplementary Table 2. Probe DNA was labeled with alkaline phosphatase using the AlkPhos Direct Labeling Kit (GE Healthcare, UK). Prehybridization, hybridization (overnight at 60°C) with alkaline phosphatase-labeled probe, and subsequent washings of the membrane were carried out according to the AlkPhos Direct Labeling Kit protocol. Detection was performed using Amersham CDP-Star detection reagent following the manufacturer’s protocol (GE Healthcare, UK). The signal from the membrane was accumulated on X-ray film (XBE blue sensitive, Retina, USA) in film cassette at room temperature for 24 hours. X-ray films were scanned on Amersham imager 600 (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Japan).

Proper integration of the pSN054-1437000-3xHA vector was confirmed by Southern blotting. Genomic DNA from the parent and edited lines was isolated (QIAamp DNA Blood Miniprep Kit), and 10 μg of each was digested with HinDIII, separated overnight on a 0.7% agarose gel and transferred to nylon (Nytran SuPerCharge TurboBlotter, 0.45 μm, GE Healthcare) overnight. The blot was then probed with the left homologous region (PCR product of 14APT-1/14APT-2) labelled with alkaline phosphatase (Amersham AlkPhos Direct Labeling Kit; GE Healthcare) in hybridization buffer (Amersham) at 55°C overnight, washed twice each in primary wash buffer (120 g/l urea, 1 g/l SDS, 100 ml/l 0.5 M sodium phosphate pH 7, 8.7 g/l NaCl, 2 g/l Amersham blocking reagent) and secondary wash buffer (6.05 g/l Tris base, 5.6 g/l NaCl, 2 ml/l 1 M MgCl2, pH 10), then detected with Amersham CDP-Star Detection Reagent (GE Healthcare) and exposed to blue autoradiography film (MidSci, BX810) overnight.

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.
