Under-Agarose assay is a useful method for observing the response of a cell population to one or more chemoattractant sources. BioProtocol - [Read The Under-Agarose Migration Assay]
TransWell Chemotaxis protocol. trans-well chemotaxis method from bioprotocol. The protocol is a method for studying migration towards a concentration gradient of chemoattractant of leukocytes (neutrophils, monocytes and lymphocytes) or other migratory cells. An upper chamber containing a suspension of cells is separated by a membrane from a lower chamber containing medium with chemoattractant. Chemotaxis of the cells from the upper chamber into the lower chamber can be quantified. - [Read TransWell Chemotaxis Protocol.]
Protocol describes the general procedure for creating mutations in the DNA of Drosophila by exposure to X-rays. Irradiation of cells with X-rays creates double strand breaks (DSBs) in DNA. Mutations introduced in the DNA of germ line cells (sperm) are propagated by mating the exposed males to virgin females. The progeny of this cross can be mated to each other so that a percentage of the subsequent offspring will have two copies of the same mutant allele. - [Read X-Ray Mutagenesis of Drosophila Protocol]
The DNA Ligation protocol described here contains the steps required to join together using ligase enzyme both plasmid DNA and insert DNA fragments in order to create a new plasmid. This new ligated plasmid can be transformed after into competent bacteria to produce DNA for mini, midi or maxi-prep isolation.
3' Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends RACE Using PCR Protocol. This protocol contains the steps for 3' end rapid amplification of mRNA by PCR. The first-strand cDNA is synthesized from total or poly(A+) RNA by priming from the poly-A tail of the mRNA using a oligo (dT) adaptor primer. The cDNA is then amplified via PCR using a gene-specific primer and an adaptor primer.
