The combination of prospective identification/isolation of bone marrow progenitors and quantitative RT-PCR is a powerful tool to understand the molecular mechanism underlying hematopoiesis. Describes the standard procedures of the murine myeloid progenitor staining for fluorescence activated cells sorting (FACS) and RNA purification methods. - [Read Cell Staining for Sorting of Hematopoietic Stem Cells (HSC) and Myeloid Progenitors]
The combination of prospective identification/isolation of bone marrow progenitors and quantitative RT-PCR is a powerful tool to understand the molecular mechanism underlying hematopoiesis. Here, we described our standard procedures of the murine myeloid progenitor staining for fluorescence activated cells sorting (FACS) and RNA purification methods. - [Read Cell Staining for Sorting of Hematopoietic Stem Cells and Myeloid Progenitors and Isolating RNA]

Protocol describes three standard methods to construct bacteriophage M13 recombinants: (1) ligating insert DNA to a linearized vector, prepared by cleavage of M13 RF with a single restriction enzyme; (2) using alkaline phosphatase to suppress self-ligation of the linearized vector, and (3) using M13 RF cleaved with two restriction enzymes for directional cloning. - [Read Cloning into Bacteriophage M13 Vectors Protocol]

Concentration of DNA by Ethanol Precipitation Protocol. Adapted fromBruce A. Roe, Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, The University of Oklahoma, Norman, Oklahoma. Usually 2.5 - 3 volumes of ethanol and/or acetate solution is added to the DNA in a microcentrifuge tube. This is then put into an ice-water bath for at least 10 minutes. The precipitation is performed by incubation at -20C overnight. - [Read Concentration of Oligo DNA by Ethanol Precipitation Protocol]
Protocol provides methods for cryofreezing and subsequent thawing of mammalian cells. Pre-confluent cells are trypsinized, pelleted, resuspended in freezing medium, and gradually frozen. When needed, frozen cells are thawed quickly under running tap water and transferred to growth medium. - [Read Cryopreservation of Mammalian Culture Cells: Preparation and Recovery of Samples Protocol]
Deglycosylation steps are different with every glycoprotein and must be determined empirically (Methods in Enzymology, 1994, 230: 44-57). A typical test reaction of human transferrin is described.
