Genomic DNA Extraction from S. Typhimurium

A liquid stationary S. Typhimurium culture grown in Luria broth, Miler formulation (10 g/L Tryptone, 5 g/L yeast extract, 10 g/L NaCl) was pelleted and lysed overnight at 37°C in lysis buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 5 mM EDTA, 150 mM NaCl, 0.15 mg/mL proteinase K and 0.2% SDS). The bacterial lysate was separated using a phase lock gel (phase lock gel heavy, 5PRIME, Quantabio) and Phenol:Chloroform:Isoamyl Alcohol (25:24:1, v/v) extraction. The DNA was precipitated from the aqueous phase using a final concentration of 50% isopropanol and 0.3 M NaCl and the pellet was washed in 70% ethanol and resuspended in 10 mM Tris-HCl pH 8 and 1 mM EDTA.

Yeast RNA Extraction and Purification

RNA was extracted from 25 OD of yeast corresponding to each sample by
modification of a previously described method55 . To each sample, 0.5 g of 0.5 mm acid
washed beads (Sigma-Aldrich), 0.5 mL of RNA ISO buffer (500 mM NaCl, 200 mM
Tris-Cl pH 7.5, 10 mM EDTA, 1 % SDS) and 0.5 mL of phenol-chloroform-isoamyl
alcohol pH 6.7 (PCA, Fisher Scientific) was added. Samples were lysed with 10
cycles that each consisted of vortexing for 20 seconds and incubation on ice for
30 seconds. 1.5 volumes (relative to starting amount of RNA ISO Buffer) of RNA
ISO Buffer and of PCA were added, and samples were centrifuged at 4°C to
separate phases. The aqueous layer was transferred to a pre-spun phase-lock gel
(heavy) tube (5PRIME/Quantabio); an equal volume of PCA was added and mixed
prior to centrifugation at room temperature to separate phases. The aqueous
layer was transferred to 2 new tubes for ethanol precipitation with 2 volumes of
100% ethanol followed incubation at −80°C for 1 hour to overnight.
Precipitated RNA was pelleted by centrifugation at 4°C. Each pellet was
dissolved in 25 μL nuclease-free water and combined into 1 tube per
sample. Co-purifying DNA was digested with 20 U of Turbo DNase (Invitrogen) at
37°C for 4 hours. RNA was cleaned up with the GeneJET RNA Purification
Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and eluted with 50 μL of DEPC-treated
water.

Phenol-Chloroform DNA Extraction Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Phenol dilutions were prepared by adding pure chloroform (Ricca Chemical Company, Arlington, TX) to 25:24:1 phenol/chloroform/isoamyl alcohol (Acros Organics, Morris, Nj) until the desired proportion of phenol was obtained. Phenol–chloroform was added to an equal volume of sample (10 or 25 μL) in binding/washing buffer and thoroughly mixed by vortexing for 1 min. In the case of bead-bound streptavidin, beads were removed by placing the sample tube on a magnet and decanting. For both processes, the biphasic mixture was then transferred into a phase-lock tube (5Prime, QuantaBio, Beverly, MA) and centrifuged at 14 000g for 25 min. An additional sample volume of chloroform was added to the aqueous phase, and the mixture was centrifuged at the same speed for an additional 20 min. Finally, the aqueous phase containing eluted DNA was aspirated for subsequent use or analysis. All steps were performed at room temperature. Control experiments were performed with pure chloroform or deionized water instead of phenol–chloroform.

Chromatin Compaction Analysis of LNCaP Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
One million LNCaP cells were plated for 3 days and half of media was replaced to fresh media when cells were treated with DMSO or 20µM OSMI-4 for 24 hours. Cells were fixed by adding formaldehyde in 1% final concentration for 10 minutes at room temperature and fixation was stopped by addition of 125mM glycine (final) for 5 minutes at room temperature. Plates were washed with ice cold PBS, cells pelleted by centrifugation (1000rpm, 10 minutes) and lysed in 0.5% SDS, 0.5% TritonX 100, 150mM NaCl, 10mM EDTA, 50mM Tris-HCl pH8.0 containing 1X protease inhibitor. Samples were sonicated using Bioruptor. Input sample was taken and the rest of the sample was subjected to three subsequent phenol:chloroform:isoamyl alcohol (25:24:1) extractions to isolate protein-free DNA in the aqueous phase using columns (#2302830, 5Prime, QuantaBio). All the samples (including input) were treated with proteinase K for 1 hour at +55˚C, DNA de-crosslinked at +65˚C for 4 hours and purified using standard phenol-chloroform extraction. qPCR was used to evaluate chromatin compaction relative to input.

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.
