Telomere Length Measurement Using Southern Blot

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Telomere length in each of the tissues was assessed using TeloTAGGG Telomere Length Assay (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO) as per manufacturer’s recommendation and described elsewhere (Tarry-Adkins and Ozanne 2018 (link)). Briefly, about 1.0 μg DNA was digested with HinfI and RsaI restriction enzymes for 2 h at 37 °C and the restriction enzyme reaction quenched by adding 5× SDS loading buffer (Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany). The samples were than loaded onto agarose gels containing ethyl bromide (Sigma-Aldrich) and separated by pulsed field gel electrophoresis. The undigested and digested DNA were checked for non-specific degradation and digestion by the restriction enzymes by visualizing under UV light (BioRad). The separated DNA fragments were transferred to nylon membrane (Roche Diagnostics) by Southern blotting, and dioxygenin labelled telomeric repeat length was determined with anti- dioxygenin antibodies using chemiluminescent detection. The densitometry of the telomere signals was analyzed using ImageJ (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD) as described previously (Tarry-Adkins and Ozanne 2018 (link)).

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.
