The protocol uses a Bio-Rad Gene Pulser II apparatus to electroporate DNA into human cell lines. Dr. Frank, Arthritis and Immunology Program, Oklahoma City Medical Research Foundation - [Read Electroporation of Eukaryotic Cells]
Calcium phosphate forms an insoluble precipitate with DNA, which attaches to the cell surface and is taken into the cells by endocytosis. The protocol is easily adapted for use with other types of cells, both adherent and nonadherent. This protocol is a modified version of a method published by Jordan et al. (1996) who rigorously optimized calcium-phosphate-based transfection methods for Chinese hamster ovary cells and the 293 line of human embryonic kidney cells. - [Read Calcium-phosphate-mediated Transfection of Eukaryotic Cells with Plasmid DNAs]

The pattern and extent of DNA methylation can significantly affect the success of restriction digestions
or bacterial transformations. Prokaryotic DNA may be methylated by host restriction/modification
systems, while eukaryotic DNA often is methylated i - [Read A practical guide to DNA methylation Promega PDF]

This protocol describes the labeling of eukaryotic RNA with aminoallyl labeled
nucleotides via first strand cDNA synthesis followed by a coupling of the
aminoallyl groups to either Cyanine 3 or 5 (Cy 3/Cy5) fluorescent molecules. Hasseman. TIGR Microarr - [Read Amino-allyl Labeling]
This protocol describes PCR amplification of eukaryotic cDNA plasmid inserts,
gel electrophoresis, purification, and storage of PCR products. Hasseman. TIGR Microarray Protocols. - [Read MICROARRAY PCR, PURIFICATION, AND STORAGE]
Protocol is used to establish conditions for restriction enzyme digestion of eukaryotic genomic DNA that will generate fragments of a size appropriate for construction of genomic libraries. To construct a genomic library, the average length of the starting genomic DNA should be at least eight times the capacity of the vector. - [Read Partial Digestion of Eukaryotic DNA for Use in Genomic Libraries: Pilot Reactions Protocol]
