Having entered the pharmacology graduate school program at Yale University, she began working in the laboratory of David Schatz investigating the role of DNA repair proteins in V(D)J recombination. The development of an in vitro V(D)J cleavage system in the laboratory changed her focus and she began studying the cleavage mechanism as part of her doctoral research. Exposure to science policy at the National Academy of Sciences, and to science journalism through the AAAS Mass Media Science and Engineering Fellows Program, prompted Dr. Agrawal to pursue a career in science writing.

Introduction Introducing illustra and Trap for Nucleic Acid and Protein Sample Preparation

J Preparing protein, DNA, and RNA samples is just as critical as the analysis step. J Reducing errors and increasing reproducibility at the preparation stage ensures the best results. J Genomic and protein research workflows involve combinations of biomolecules and are becoming more complex. J Identifying the right product for each stage of the research process is important for obtaining the best results.

J Straightforward protocols to generate reproducible results with exceptional yield and purity. J Simplicity through reliable kit design and ready-to-use components. J Optimized protocols for specific proteins and analytical techniques such as electrophoresis, liquid chromatography, and mass spectrometry. The products are packed in appropriate formats for typical sample volumes analyzed using these techniques and and are packed in quantities for small-series and for high-throughput requirements. Regardless of your sample source, purification target, or downstream application, these products enable you to get a great start for an excellent finish.

We have simplified the process and made it easier for users to get started by providing the right product for each stage of the process.

The purification process involves minimal shearing resulting in the production of 5 to 10 µg of good quality, intact genomic DNA from a 200 µl sample. Input sample volumes can vary from 50 µl to 1 ml. The method uses a simple genomic DNA purification protocol that uses chaotropic agents to extract DNA from blood cells, denature protein components, and promote the selective binding of DNA to a column-based, novel silicamembrane. The elution volume can be modified as necessary to obtain the appropriate genomic DNA concentration for most downstream molecular biological applications. The kit contains spin columns prepacked with a novel silica membrane, lyophilized proteinase K powder, lysis solution, wash and elution buffers, microcentrifuge collection tubes, a full protocol booklet, and a detachable, quick reference protocol card.

TempliPhi Kits use a novel process to efficiently prepare micrograms of circular DNA from picogram input material. The DNA templates are prepared by rolling circle amplification (RCA) using bacteriophage Phi29 DNA polymerase. TempliPhi uses an isothermal method for the exponential amplification of circular DNA. Phi29 DNA polymerase is active at 30°C, enabling amplification to be performed at this temperature without the need for thermal cycling. The TempliPhi protocol requires less than 20 min of hands-on time to amplify 96 samples from bacterial colonies.

Sequencing reactions were analyzed on an ABI 3730xl DNA Analyzer. A GC-rich region toward the end of the sequence showed poor resolution when it was sequenced with dGTP chemistry—resulting in base miscalling. In addition, the dGTP chemistry produced sequencing compressions. All these limitations are absent from the sequence produced with the illustra TempliPhi Sequence Resolver Kit.

illustra TempliPhi Sequence Resolver Kit uses the highly processive, strand-displacing Phi29 DNA polymerase and modified nucleotides to amplify circular templates for subsequent sequencing. The kit can be used with both small (plasmids, M13) and large [fosmids and bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs)] circular templates. The starting template for the reaction can be purified DNA, glycerol stock, liquid culture or colonies. The reaction takes less than 20 min to prepare and after an overnight incubation at 10°C, it is ready to be used directly in sequencing applications with the sequencing chemistry of choice. A ten microliter (10 µl) reaction typically yields 1 µg of DNA in a standard overnight reaction.

illustra CsTFA (solution*) is a strong chaotrope which not only inhibits ribonucleases, but also promotes the hydration and solubilization of nucleic acids and proteins. Due to its high solubility, solutions can be made with densities of up to 2.6 g/ml. This feature, combined with the fact that nucleic acids have relatively low buoyant densities in CsTFA (as compared with CsCl), means that RNA can be banded isopycnically in CsTFA gradients. Conditions can also be chosen in which RNA pellets at the bottom of the gradient while DNA is banded, thus allowing very effective purification of RNA from DNA.

RAPD analysis is a technique for rapidly detecting genomic polymorphisms. A single, short oligonucleotide primer of arbitrary sequence is used under low stringency conditions in PCR to generate a reproducible array of strain-specific products that are analyzed by gel electrophoresis. Under these conditions, genomic polymorphisms can be detected at multiple loci using only nanogram quantities of DNA. RAPD analysis has been used in numerous applications, including gene mapping, detection of strain diversity, population analysis, epidemiology and the analysis of phylogenetic and taxonomic relationships (2). The RAPD reactions are provided as dried beads that contain all the necessary PCR components—except primer—in concentrations optimized for RAPD analysis. Beads are provided in thin-walled 0.5 ml tubes compatible with most thermal cyclers. Each package of Ready-To-Go RAPD Analysis Beads contains sufficient reagents for 100 individual RAPD reactions: RAPD analysis beads, control E. coli BL21 DNA, control E. coli C1a DNA, RAPD analysis primer 2, and instruction booklet (DNA from two E. coli strains and RAPD analysis primer 2 are provided as controls to assay the ability of the RAPD beads to amplify DNA and identify polymorphisms.)

RAPD reactions for various organisms performed using 10 ng of template DNA, Ready-To-Go RAPD Analysis Beads and RAPD Analysis Primer 3 from the RAPD Analysis Primer Set.

The illustra RAPD Analysis Kit consists of the Ready-To-Go RAPD Analysis Beads and six primers which can be used with RAPD Analysis Beads. Each primer in the set is an arbitrary 10-mer which is specifically designed for use in RAPD analysis. The primers are supplied lyophilized and can be reconstituted with 500 µl of sterile distilled water to give a final concentration of 5 pmol/µl.

The only additional reagents required are water, template RNA, and primers. The Ready-To-Go Bead format significantly reduces the number of pipetting steps, thereby increasing reproducibility of the RT-PCR technique and minimizing risk of contamination and RNA degradation. Ready-To-Go RT-PCR Beads are provided in either thin walled 0.5 ml or 0.2 ml tubes compatible with most thermocyclers. The 0.2 ml tubes come assembled in a 96-well (8 u 12) plate format that allows individual strips of eight tubes to be easily removed. This flexibility allows use of either the entire 96-well plate, strips of eight or individual 0.2 ml tubes. Each package of Ready-To-Go RT-PCR Beads contains: RT-PCR beads, control reactions and pd(N)6 and oligo(dT) cDNA primers.

illustra RT-PCR is commonly used to amplify cDNA by combining first-strand cDNA synthesis of an RNA template with PCR amplification. Typically the reaction is performed in two steps. A first-strand cDNA reaction is performed, the resulting cDNA is then transferred to another tube containing Taq DNA polymerase and PCR buffer where the reaction mixture is subjected to multiple cycles of denaturation, annealing and elongation, resulting in the exponential amplification of the target cDNA. Ready-To-Go RT-PCR Beads* simplify this process to a single-tube, single-reaction procedure.

A 17-mer was synthesized on a 0.2 µm scale and deprotected at 60°C for 30 min in concentrated ammonium hydroxide. 100 µl or 150 µl of deprotected oligo was applied to pre-spun MicroSpin G-25 Columns and centrifuged at 735 u g for 2 min in a microcentrifuge. As a standard, 0.25 ml of deprotected oligo was diluted to 1 ml and purified on a NAP-10 column according to instructions provided with the columns. Yield is based on A260 reading following purification. Yield from NAP-10 Column is a standard to which we have assigned 100% yield.



Purity is based on amount of ammonia present following purification as determined using Nessler reagent. Purity from NAP-10 Column is a standard to which we have assigned 100% purity.

Due to the great diversity of protein sample types and origin, different treatments and conditions are required to extract and solubilize different types of protein samples. Some proteins are naturally found in complexes with membranes, nucleic acids, or other proteins; some proteins form various nonspecific aggregates; other proteins precipitate when removed from their normal environment. The effectiveness of solubilization depends on the choice of cell disruption method, protein concentration and dissolution method, choice of detergent, and composition of sample solution.

If any of these steps are not optimized for a particular sample and/or analysis, separations may be incomplete or distorted and information may be lost. Also, accurate quantitation of the final sample helps in determining the right protein load and increases the chances of visualizing low-abundance proteins.

Proteins in serum and other biological fluids are difficult to resolve by 2-D electrophoresis, largely due to the abundance of serum albumin and IgG. In human serum, albumin constitutes 50% to 70% of the total protein and IgG constitutes 10% to 25%. The presence of these proteins obscures other proteins in the gel and limits the amounts of proteins in the serum that can be resolved by 2-D electrophoresis. In addition, these proteins have wide pI and molecular weight ranges that further reduce resolution and mask other low-abundance proteins.

Vivaspin enables up to 30-fold concentration of biological sample.

J One-step sample concentration in a single tube for minimal sample handling and reduced sample loss. J Patented dead-stop technology, which ensures that samples cannot be concentrated to dryness and enables direct concentrate recovery. J Vertical polyethersulfone membrane minimizes membrane blockage and tolerates high flow rates. J Easy, contact-free storage by reverse spinning the concentrate into the recovery cap (Vivaspin 2). J Compatible pH range is from pH 1 to 9. Vivaspin sample concentrators are designed for fast, nondenaturing concentration of biological samples by membrane ultrafiltration. Up to 30-fold concentration of the sample can be achieved with recovery of the target molecule typically exceeding 95%. The entire process is performed in a single tube with an upper compartment containing sample and lower compartment separated by a semipermeable membrane with a molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) selected by the user. Centrifugation is applied to force solvent through the membrane, leaving a more concentrated sample in the upper chamber. Vivaspin sample concentrators cater for sample volumes from 100 µl to 20 ml, with a range of molecular weight cutoff values from Mr 3 000 to 100 000. For maximum recovery, select a MWCO at least 50% smaller than the molecular size of the species of interest.

Fractionation makes it possible to isolate groups of proteins, or fractions from the total proteome. This allows for improved resolution when an individual fraction is analyzed, provides less crowded 2-D maps, simplifies analysis and interpretation, and increases the chances of discovering novel proteins of diagnostic or therapeutic interest. The 2-D Fractionation Kit simplifies analysis of complex protein mixtures by reducing the amount and number of protein species loaded into the gel matrix.

The 2-D Clean-Up Kit procedure uses precipitant and co-precipitant in combination to quantitatively precipitate proteins. Precipitated proteins are pelleted by centrifugation and the precipitate is further washed to remove nonprotein contaminants. After a second centrifugation, the resultant pellet is resuspended into denaturing sample solution for first-dimension IEF. The procedure can be completed in 90 min and does not result in spot gain or loss. The kit contains sufficient reagents to process 50 samples of up to 100 µl each. The procedure can be scaled up for larger volumes or more dilute samples. 2-D Clean-Up Kit increases labeling efficiency and protein abundance when using 2-D Fluorescence Difference Gel Electrophoresis (2-D DIGE). Please request application note Improving Sample Quality in 2-D Difference Gel Electrophoresis using Ettan 2-D Clean-Up Kit (code number 18-1164-86).

Protein Sample Preparation Desalting/Buffer Exchange/Cleanup Mini Dialysis Kit J Designed for efficient dialysis of small sample volumes. J Uses disposable dialysis tubes with dialysis membrane incorporated into caps. J Conical tube bottom maximizes sample recovery. Dialyzing small samples can be difficult and inefficient when the sample must be transferred into and out of dialysis bags and centrifuge tubes. The disposable tubes in Mini Dialysis Kit offer a simple solution to the handling problems of small volume dialysis. The dialysis tubes in the kit each have a cap that incorporates a small disk of dialysis membrane. Samples are easily pipetted into and removed from the conical bottom of the tube. The capped tube is inserted into a float and then, with the cap and membrane down, placed in a stirred beaker containing the desired dialysis solution.

SDS-PAGE Clean-Up Kit uses a combination of a precipitant and co-precipitant to quantitatively precipitate the sample proteins while leaving interfering substances in solution. Detergents, salts, lipids, phenolics, and nucleic acids remain soluble while the proteins are pelleted by centrifugation. The precipitate is washed further to remove nonprotein contaminants and centrifuged again. The resultant pellet is resuspended, mixed with SDS-PAGE sample buffer, and heated. The sample is then ready for SDS-PAGE. The procedure can be completed in under 2 h with quantitative yield.

Common spectrophotometric methods of quantitating protein rely either on Coomassie dye binding or protein-catalyzed reduction of cupric (Cu2+) ion to cuprous (Cu+) ion. Dye-binding assays cannot be used in the presence of any reagent that also binds the dye. This includes carrier ampholytes and detergents such as PlusOne CHAPS, SDS, and Triton X-100. Assays that depend on the reduction of cupric ion cannot be used in the presence of reductants such as DTT, or in the presence of reagents that form complexes with cupric ion, such as thiourea or EDTA.

The 2-D Quant Kit procedure works by quantitatively precipitating proteins while leaving interfering substances behind. The assay is based on the specific binding of copper ions to protein. Precipitated proteins are resuspended in a copper-containing solution and unbound copper is measured with a colorimetric agent. The absorbance at 480 nm is inversely related to the protein concentration. The assay has a linear response to protein in the range of 0 to 50 µg and recommended sample volume is 1 to 50 µl.
