T-circle assay was modified from the work of Zellinger et al (2007) (link). 2 μg of genomic DNA was digested with 10 U/μg (each) HinfI and MboI (New England Biolabs) in CutSmart buffer in the presence of 10 μg/ml RNase A overnight at 37°C. 1.5 μg of cut DNA was ethanol-precipitated and resuspended in an annealing buffer (0.2 M Tris, pH 7.5; 0.2 M KCl; and 1 mM EDTA) with 1 μM (CCCTAA)3 primer containing thiophosphate linkages between the three 3′ terminal nucleotides. The mix was denatured at 96°C for 5 min and cooled down to 25°C for 2 h. DNA was ethanol-precipitated and resuspended in 10 μl of H2O for the T-circle reaction (10 μl sample combined with 10 μl 0.2 mg/ml BSA, 0.1% Tween, 1 mM each dATP, dGTP, dTTP, dCTP, 1× ϕ29 buffer, and 7.5 U ϕ29 DNA polymerase [New England Biolabs]). Primer extension was carried out at 30°C for 12 h. The ϕ29 DNA polymerase was inactivated by incubation at 65°C for 20 min. The extension products were separated by agarose gel electrophoresis (0.6% agarose at 2 V/cm for 16 h). The gel was then dried at 50°C for 2 h, denatured and hybridized with a specific telomeric probe. U2OS genomic DNA of the ALT cell line was used as a positive control.

C-circle Assay Protocol for Telomere Length

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The method employed for the assay probing for C-circles was slightly modified from that performed in Henson et al.19 (link). Briefly, genomic DNA was prepared as above. Digested DNA was cleaned up by phenol-chloroform extraction and precipitation. DNA was diluted and measured using a Nanodrop spectrophotometer. Generally, 100 and 50 ng of DNA were used for each sample (10 μl). DNA was combined with 10 μl 0.2 mg/ml BSA (NEB), 0.1% Tween, 1 mM each dATP, dGTP and dTTP, 1X ϕ29 Buffer (NEB) and 7.5 U ϕ29 DNA polymerase (NEB) and incubated at 30 °C for 12 h then 65 °C for 20 min. Reaction products were diluted to 100 μl with 2XSSC and dot-blotted onto a 2XSSC soaked nylon membrane. DNA was UV-cross-linked onto the membrane, and then hybridized at 50°C with end-labeled 32P-(CCCTAA)4 oligo probe. Blots were washed, exposed and scanned using a Typhoon 9400 PhosphoImager (Amersham, GE Healthcare) and analyzed using ImageQuant Software.

C-circle and G-circle Assays for ALT Detection

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
C-circle assay was performed as described in (50 (link)). Briefly, 300 ng of genomic DNA was digested with HinfI (NEB Inc.) for 1 h at 37°C. Duplicated samples were undigested or digested with 10 units of exonuclease V (Exo V) in the buffer supplemented with 1 mM adenosine triphosphate (ATP), as recommended by manufacturer (NEB Inc), for 1 h at 37°C. For C-circle detection, the ϕ29 DNA polymerase reactions contained the digested genomic DNA as indicated, 0.2 mg/ml BSA, 0.1% Tween-20, 1 mM each of dATP, dGTP and dTTP (or only dATP and dTTP), 1 x ϕ29 buffer and 7.5 U ϕ29 DNA polymerase (NEB Inc.) or no ϕ29 DNA polymerase as control. The reactions were incubated overnight at 30°C, and then the ϕ29 DNA polymerase was inactivated by incubation at 65°C for 20 min. Genomic DNA from U2OS ALT cells and immortalized human fibroblasts were used as positive and negative controls, respectively. The reaction products were run on 0.6% agarose gel in 0.5 × TBE, the gel was dried and hybridized with a 5′ end-labeled (AACCCT)3 oligonucleotide probe, as described under ‘in-gel hybridization analysis’. G-circle assay was performed in a similar manner, except for using dATP, dCTP and dTTP (or only dATP and dTTP) in the ϕ29 polymerase reaction and 5′ end-labeled (AGGGTT)3 hybridization probe.

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.
