Live Cell Characterization of DNA Aggregation Delivered through Lipofection
DNA trafficking phenomena, such as information on where and to what extent DNA aggregation occurs, have yet to be fully characterised in the live cell. Here we characterise the aggregation of DNA when delivered through lipofection by applying the Number and Brightness (N&B) approach. The N&B analysis demonstrates extensive aggregation throughout the live cell with DNA clusters in the extremity ...
متن کاملDNA modification of live cell surface
We report a novel approach for the attachment of DNA fragments to the surface of live cells. By using fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry we demonstrated that our synthetic conjugates of fatty acid with oligonucleotides can be incorporated in plasma membrane and then hybridized with complementary sequences at the cell surface. Method permits to control amount of immobilized DNA on the ce...
متن کاملCharacterization of exogenous DNA mobility in live cells through fluctuation correlation spectroscopy
The spatial-temporal dynamics of delivered DNA is a critical aspect influencing successful gene delivery. A comprehensive model of DNA lipoplex trafficking through live cells has yet to be demonstrated. Here the bioimaging approaches Raster Image Correlation Spectroscopy (RICS) and image-Means Square Displacement (iMSD) were applied to quantify DNA mechanical dynamics in live cells. DNA lipople...
متن کاملFlow-cytometric analysis of mouse embryonic stem cell lipofection using small and large DNA constructs.
Using the lipofection reagent LipofectAMINE 2000 we have examined the delivery of plasmid DNA (5-200 kb) to mouse embryonic stem (mES) cells by flow cytometry. To follow the physical uptake of lipoplexes we labeled DNA molecules with the fluorescent dye TOTO-1. In parallel, expression of an EGFP reporter cassette in constructs of different sizes was used as a measure of nuclear delivery. The ce...
متن کاملLipofection: a highly efficient, lipid-mediated DNA-transfection procedure.
A DNA-transfection protocol has been developed that makes use of a synthetic cationic lipid, N-[1-(2,3-dioleyloxy)propyl]-N,N,N-trimethylammonium chloride (DOTMA). Small unilamellar liposomes containing DOTMA interact spontaneously with DNA to form lipid-DNA complexes with 100% entrapment of the DNA, DOTMA facilitates fusion of the complex with the plasma membrane of tissue culture cells, resul...
