Footprinting with an automated capillary DNA sequencer.
Footprinting is a valuable tool for studying DNA-protein contacts. However, it usually involves expensive, tedious and hazardous steps such as radioactive labeling and analyses on polyacrylamide sequencing gels. We have developed an easy four-step footprinting method involving (i) the generation and purification of a PCR fragment that is fluorescently labeled at one end with 6-carboxyfluorescei...
متن کاملLong-range and highly sensitive DNase I footprinting by an automated infrared DNA sequencer.
We have shown that an automated DNA sequencer is applicable to fluorescence-based detection of fragments in DNase I footprinting. We demonstrated the potential of long-range and highly sensitive DNase I footprinting taking advantage of an infrared-fluorescence automated DNA sequencer. Footprints of human transcription factor SpI were reproducibly detected ranging approximately between 100 and 7...
متن کاملElectrophoretic mobility shift scanning using an automated infrared DNA sequencer.
Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) is widely used in the study of sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins, including transcription factors and mismatch binding proteins. We have established a non-radioisotope-based protocol for EMSA that features an automated DNA sequencer with an infrared fluorescent dye (IRDye) detection unit. Our modification of the elec- trophoresis unit, which incl...
متن کاملAn integrated microsatellite length analysis using an automated fluorescent DNA sequencer.
Analyzing microsatellite instability (MI) in malignant tumors is thought to be useful for screening cancer patients to identify those patients with a higher risk of developing second malignant tumors. In this paper, we report a new, accurate, and efficient method of detecting MI using an automated fluorescent DNA sequencer and a computer that automatically calculates the size, height, and area ...
متن کاملGeneration of multiple mRNA fingerprints using fluorescence-based differential display and an automated DNA sequencer.
Differential display is a method for the survey, analysis and comparison of gene expression in eukaryotic cells and tissues. Differential display involves isolation of high-quality nondegraded RNA, selective reverse transcription of polyadenylated mRNA using specific anchored oligopolydeoxythymidine [oligo(dT)] primers, and the subsequent PCR amplification of the cDNA with the same oligo(dT), a...
