Total RNA was extracted from mouse livers using ISOGEN (Nippon Gene). For analyzing mt-tRNA expression levels, total RNA was separated by electrophoresis through a 7 M urea 10% acrylamide gel. For aminoacyl-tRNA analysis, total RNA was extracted and electrophoresed on a 7 M urea 8% acrylamide gel under acidic conditions (pH 5.0) and then transferred to Immobilon-Ny + membranes (Merck). For expression level analysis of precursor RNAs, total RNA was separated by electrophoresis on a formaldehyde–2% agarose gel along with DynaMarker RNA High (BioDynamics Laboratory Inc.), and then transferred to Immobilon-Ny + membranes (Merck). The membranes were hybridized with DIG-modified probes that bind to mt-tRNALeu(UUR), mt-tRNAIle, 5.8S rRNA, ND1, 16S rRNA and 18S rRNA (the probe sequences are listed in Supplemental Table S5). The membranes were then blocked using a DIG wash and Block buffer kit (Roche) and incubated with anti-Digoxigenin-AP (1:10 000; #11093274910; Roche). Signals were detected using the ImageQuant LAS4000 (GE Healthcare) using CDP-star (Sigma-Aldrich).

The physical genomic titers of highly purified scAAV vector stocks were determined by quantitative DNA slot blot analysis as described previously [48 (link)], with modification. Briefly, 10 μl of vector stock was digested with Benzonase (EMD Millipore, Darmstadt, Germany) at 37°C for 1 hour. An equal volume of 100 mM NaOH was added, followed by incubation at 65°C for 30 min. A known quantity of plasmid DNA was denatured in the same manner for use as a reference standard for quantitation. Denatured DNA samples were loaded in two-fold serial dilutions onto Immobilon-NY+ membranes (Millipore, Bedford, MA). After UV cross-linking, the membranes were prehybridized for 1 hour at 42°C in a hybridization solution containing 6×SSC, 100 μg/ml denatured herring sperm DNA, 0.5% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and 5×Denhardt’s reagent. Subsequently, the membranes were hybridized with Cy3-labled DNA probe in a hybridization solution at 42°C for 18 to 20 hours. Membranes were washed twice with wash solution I (2×SSC, 0.1% SDS) at room temperature for 15 min, twice with wash solution II (0.5×SSC, 0.1% SDS) at 42°C for 15 min, and then exposed to Amersham Typhoon RGB Biomolecular Imager (GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL) at room temperature.

Southern hybridization was employed to determine the pKEF9 integration sites in S. islandicus and also to establish the presence of the pKEF9-matching spacer 44, CRISPR locus 2, in the recipient host. A standard procedure was used (29 ) in which about 4 µg total DNA from each sample was digested with EcoRI, fractionated in 1.0% agarose gels and transferred to IMMOBILON-NY+ membranes (Millipore, MA, USA) by capillary transfer. Membrane-bound DNA was then auto-crosslinked using a UV Cross-linker (Stratagene, CA, USA). Hybridization probes were amplified by PCR (Supplementary Table S1), purified and labelled with Digoxigenin Labelling kit (Roche, Basel, Switzerland). Hybridization was performed overnight at 42°C and hybridization signals were detected using a DIG detection kit with the CDP-star (Roche) and recorded on CP-BUl X-ray films (AGFA, Mortsel, Belgium).

Total RNA was isolated from exponentially-growing cells in SD medium at 25 °C by the method of Collart and Oliviero [11 ]. Aliquots (10 μg) of total RNA were separated by electrophoresis on 1 · 2 % (w/v) agarose gels containing formaldehyde, transferred to IMMOBILON-NY+ membranes (Millipore) and hybridized as described by the manufacturer. The 3 · 0 kbp BamHI fragment of clone pYSGal104 (courtesy of Dr. Susan Lindquist) was used as DNA probe to detect HSP104 transcripts. Gene-specific DNA probes for HSP82, SSA3, HSP26, HSP12, and ACT1 were amplified by PCR. Primer pairs used during PCR were: FSHSP82 and RSHSP82 for HSP82; fc-ssa3 and rc-ssa3 for SSA3; HSP26-F and HSP26-R for HSP26; HSP12-F and HSP12-R for HSP12; ACT1-1 and ACT1-2 for ACT1 (Additional file 1: Table S5). Estimation of band intensities of autoradiograms was performed by image analysis with NIH Image 1.62 software.

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.
