PAP-LMPCR for improved, allele-specific footprinting and automated chromatin fine structure analysis
The analysis of chromatin fine structure and transcription factor occupancy of differentially expressed genes by in vivo footprinting and ligation-mediated-PCR (LMPCR) is a powerful tool to understand the impact of chromatin on gene expression. However, as with all PCR-based techniques, the accuracy of the experiments has often been reduced by sequence similarities and the presence of GC-rich o...
متن کاملA rapid and simple transcriptional sequencing method for GC-rich DNA regions.
In genome sequencing project, we encounter the DNA regions that often contain stable secondary structure with high GC content. These regions are difficult to not only amplify by PCR for template preparations, but also determine the DNA sequences using standard Cycle sequencing (CS) method. Transcriptional sequencing (TS) is a unique DNA sequencing method using RNA polymerase, and is based on th...
متن کاملNovel GC-rich DNA-binding compound produced by a genetically engineered mutant of the mithramycin producer Streptomyces argillaceus exhibits improved transcriptional repressor activity: implications for cancer therapy
The aureolic acid antibiotic mithramycin (MTM) binds selectively to GC-rich DNA sequences and blocks preferentially binding of proteins, like Sp1 transcription factors, to GC-rich elements in gene promoters. Genetic approaches can be applied to alter the MTM biosynthetic pathway in the producing microorganism and obtain new products with improved pharmacological properties. Here, we report on a...
متن کاملAn improved protocol for genomic sequencing and footprinting by ligation-mediated PCR.
In vivo footprinting requires the precise and sensitive mapping of rucks in highly complex genomic DNA. The Ugation-mediated PCR methodology (LM-PCR (I, 2]) has overcome sensitivity problems due 10 a selective amplification of the DNA fragments under srudy _ 1be currenl procedure (3) employs three genespecific oligooucleotides (pl-P3) to prime three DNA synthesis reactions (Figure I): First, PI...
متن کامل7-Deaza-2'-deoxyguanosine allows PCR and sequencing reactions from CpG islands.
CpG islands are GC rich sequences that are found in the promoters of many genes in higher eukaryotes. They contain a high frequency of CG dinucleotides, which are substrates for DNA methylases. Methylation leads to transcriptional silencing of promoters. Owing to their high GC content CpG islands exhibit strong base-base interactions, which lead to superstructures and consequently to regions wi...
