Long-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 کاملFootprinting 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 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 کاملDNaseR: DNase I footprinting analysis of DNase-seq data
The combination of DNase I digestion and high-throughput sequencing (DNaseseq) has been used recently to map chromatin accessibility in a given tissue or cell type on a genome-wide scale (Song and Crawford, 2010). In addition to DNase I hypersensitive sites (DHSs), short regions of protected nucleotides known as footprints can be detected using a technique known as ”digital genomic footprinting...
متن کاملNonradioactive, solid-phase DNase I footprints analyzed on an A.L.F. DNA Sequencer.
Solid-phase DNase I footprinting provides a powerful tool for analyzing the sequence-specific interactions of DNA binding proteins. Classically this type of assay requires radioactively labeled DNA molecules. Substitution of the isotope by fluorescein labeling of the DNA fragments enables the analysis of footprint patterns on a standard automated laser fluorescent (A.L.F.) DNA Sequencer. The co...
