Purification of DNA for bacterial productivity estimates.
نویسندگان
چکیده
[methyl-3H]thymidine-labeled DNA from natural populations of aquatic bacteria was completely separated from RNA and protein by hydroxylapatite chromatography. The procedure was validated by monitoring increases in Escherichia coli cell count, A550, DNA concentration, and thymidine incorporation into DNA isolated by the proposed technique. The procedure can be used in the field and does not rely on the use of acid-base hydrolysis or volatile organic solvents.

Rapid purification of HU protein from Halobacillus karajensis
The histone-like protein HU is the most-abundant DNA-binding protein in bacteria. The HU protein non-specifically binds and bends DNA as a hetero- or homodimer, and can participate in DNA supercoiling and DNA condensation. It also takes part in DNA functions such as replication, recombination, and repair. HU does not recognize any specific sequences but shows a certain degree of specificity to ...
متن کاملHPLC-SPE-NMR: a productivity tool in natural products research
Natural products provide excellent potential leads for drug development because of their chemical diversity and biological functionality. However, the productivity of discovery of new, pharmacologically active natural products has traditionally been low due to inherent difficulties and costs associated with extract dereplication, i.e., isolation, purification and structure elucidation of indivi...

متن کاملComparison of six commercial kits to extract bacterial chromosome and plasmid DNA for MiSeq sequencing
We compared commercial kits for extraction of genomic DNA from the Gram-negative bacterium Klebsiella pneumoniae for subsequent Miseq sequencing. Purification of DNA was based on matrix binding (silica or anion exchange resin) or differential precipitation (salting out), respectively. The choice of extraction kit had little effect on sequencing quality and coverage across drastically different ...
متن کاملBacterial Expression and Purification of C1C2 Domain of Human Factor VIII
With the aim of the production of human factor VIII antigen and its corresponding antibody an epitope coding fragment of the light-chain of hFVIII, fused to a His6-tag, was isolated and over-expressed in Escherichia coli. The over-expressed hFVIII-epitope containing peptide was confirmed by its reaction with a rabbit serum directed against native hFVIII as well as antiHis6-tag antibody. An expr...
