چکیده

Extraction of RNA from plant tissue containing high levels of polyphenols and polysaccharides is tedious and difficult in grapes. Although several protocols have been published for plant RNA isolation, most have failed to yield high quality RNA in sufficient quantity from mature and diseased grape tissue. We describe a protocol for isolating intact and high quality RNA from various grape tissues as evident by high A260/A280 absorbance ratio (1.8 to 1.9) and electrophoretic profile on denaturing formaldehyde agarose gel. On an average, 205 μg RNA per g of fresh tissue were obtained using this modified protocol. RNA quality was further

Phenol Based RNA Isolation is the Optimum Method for Study of Gene Expression in Human Urinary Sediment

Evaluation of gene expression in urinary sediment has been considered as a promising non-invasive approach for biomarker identification of kidney diseases. Nonetheless, there are several challenges in extraction of RNA from this valuable source of biomarkers, mostly because of the factors that have influence on quality of isolated RNA such as low cellular content. Accordingly, we compared the q...

Isolation of high-quality RNA from a wide range of woody plants

Isolation of high-quality RNA is one of the most crucial methods in molecular biology. RNA extraction from woody plants has been problematic due to the presence of rigid and woody tissues, large amounts of polysaccharides, polyphenols and other secondary metabolites. Here we present a suitable protocol for RNA isolation from a wide range of woody plants that includes eight gymnosperms and four ...

The challenge of getting a high quality of RNA from oocyte for gene expression study

The extraction of intact RNA from oocyte is quite challenging and time-consuming. A standard protocol using commercial RNA extraction kit, yields a low quantity of RNA in oocytes. In the past, several attempts in getting RNA for gene expression study ended up with a few different modified methods. Extraction of high-quality RNA from oocyte is important before further downstream analyses such as...

Isolation of total RNA from tissues rich in polyphenols and polysaccharides of mangrove plants

RNA extraction from mangrove tissues can be difficult due to the presence of polyphenolic and polysaccharide compounds upon cell disruption. Besides, a successful RNA isolation from mangrove tissues sometimes can be strain and species specific. Two different methods were used to extract RNA from tissues (stems, leaves and roots) of black mangrove (Avicennia germinans) and white mangrove (Lagunc...
