The bradford dye-binding assay is a colorimetric assay for measuring total protein concentration. It involves the binding of Coomassie Brilliant blue to protein. There is no interference from cations nor from carbohydrates such as sucrose.
Detergents such as sodium dodecyl sulfate and triton x-100 can interfere with the assay, as well as strongly alkaline solutions.
Includes a general overview of the procedure and preparation of the standards in the protocol. - [Read Bradford Assay Method]
Protocol for fluorescence in situ hybridization of a repetitive DNA probe to human chromosomes in suspension. Hybridization technique which does not need formamide and dextran sulfate. As a model system, we used the repetitive
specific human DNA probe pUC 1.77, labeled it with digoxigenin-11-dUTP by nick-translation, and hybridized it to
metaphase chromosomes in suspension. These chromosomes were isolated by standard techniques from human lymphocytes. - [Read Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization of a Repetitive DNA Probe to Human Chromosomes in Suspension]
A protocol for the selection of Phage Antibodies using Immobilized Antigen. This method describes the selection of antibodies from bacteriophage antibody libraries that recognize a specific antigen. The phage display library of antibody-displaying phage particles is exposed to antigen attached to a solid substrate (Nunc Immuno™ tubes). The phage particles with affinity for antigen bind to the immobilized antigen and are selected from the library of phage expressing antibodies.
This protocol describes the electroporation of the BMH 81-17 mut S strain that is recommended for tranformation of the site directed mutagenesis of dsDNA (See Protocol on Site-Directed Mutagenesis on Double Stranded DNA). BMH 81-17 mut S are a mismatch repair defective (mut S) Escherichia coli strain. The probability that the two mutations will cosegregate during the first round of DNA replication is increased in this strain.
