Aliquots from bacterial cultures with either arabinose or glucose were withdrawn and mixed with 0.25 volume of 95% ethanol, 5% phenol, and frozen in liquid nitrogen. After thawing on ice, cells were pelleted by centrifugation (15 min at 4000 g) and RNA extracted by hot-phenol (41 (link)). 10 μg of total RNA was mixed with 2 × RNA loading buffer (95% (v/v) formamide, 0.025% (w/v) bromophenol blue, 0.025% (w/v) xylene cyanol), denatured for 2 min at 90°C, and separated on a 6% sequencing gel. After electrophoresis, RNAs were transferred to an Amersham HybondTM-N+ membrane (GE Healthcare) by electro-blotting, and UV-crosslinked. 5′-end-labeled oligodeoxyribonucleotide probes were used for detection of tisB mRNAs (ced267) and the 5S rRNA (5S-long). Pre-hybridization and hybridization of the membrane was carried out in Church and Gilbert hybridization buffer (Church & Gilbert, 1984) at 50°C. Signals were detected using a PhosphorImager screen and a PMI scanner™ (Biorad).

Approximately 30 μg of total RNA was separated on 18% polyacrylamide denaturing gels, using rice miR1432 RNA oligonucleotide as marker. RNAs were transferred to Amersham HybondTM‐N+ membrane (GE Healthcare, Amersham, UK) and hybridized with a locked nucleic acid DNA oligonucleotide complementary to the miR1432 sequence, which had been labelled with γ‐32pATP. Blots were prehybridized and hybridized at 42 °C in 125 mm NaHPO4 (pH 7.2), 250 mm NaCl2, 7% SDS and 50% formamide, and washed at 42 °C twice with 2 × SSC, 0.2% SDS followed by a higher stringency wash of 1 × SSC, 0.1% SDS at 37 °C. Blots were imaged using an FLA‐5000 phosphorimager (Fuji Medical Systems Inc., Stamford, CT). U6 was used as a loading control. Sequence of probe is listed in Table S6.

Transcription Factor Binding Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The CYP6B6 HE1 element was prepared as the DNA probe for the electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). The negative control contained only HE1 probe without HaADH5 protein. For specific competition, excess unlabeled HE1 DNA was added. For non‐specific competition, a 300 bp non‐correlated sequence was added and denoted as bHLH that was a basic helix‐loop‐helix gene from Chenopodium glaucum. The EMSA/Gel‐shift kit (Beyotime) was used for the reaction. Protein‐bound probes were separated from free probes on 6% (w/v) non‐denaturing PAGE in Tris‐borate ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid buffer. All DNA bands were transferred onto Amersham Hybond‐N+ Membrane (GE Healthcare, Waukesha, WI, USA) using the electrode diverting method. DNA probe labeling and subsequent color detection were performed using the DIG High Prime DNA Labeling and Detection Starter Kit ΙΙ (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Finally, the membrane was detected using an ImageQuant LAS4000 imager.

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.

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.
