Category: PCR Protocols: AFLP PCR

An introduction to AFLP and fAFLP. Mark E. Berres, University of Wisconsin. Amplified fragment-length polymorphism (AFLP) or its fluorescent version (fAFLP) is a PCR-based fingerprinting technology. AFLP basically involves the restriction of genomic DNA - [Read An introduction to AFLP and fAFLP]

DNA Microarray Software, ArrayMaker Version 2.60. DeRisi Lab. - [Read ArrayMaker Version 2.60]

Category: Protein Protocols: Protein Expression Protocols

Baculovirus Production for Recombinant Proteins. Protocol is a modified version of the pharmingen Baculogold kit. Brian Dynlacht. Mike A. Dyer Lab. - [Read Baculovirus Production for Recombinant Proteins]

Category: Transfection Protocols: Calcium Phosphate Transfection Protocols

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]

Category: Cell Biology and Cell Culture: Cell Cycle Protocols

Information on how to quantitatively assess DNA content. Includes: Propidium iodide staining protocol and staining of DNA by Mithramicin Protocol - [Read Cell Cycle Analysis - Propidium Iodide]

Category: Cell Biology and Cell Culture: Flow Cytometry Protocols: Cell Cycle Analysis Protocols

Information on propidium iodide for cell cycle analysis. - [Read Cell Cycle Analysis - Propidium Iodide]

Category: Plant Biology Protocols: Plant DNA RNA Isolation Protocols

The original maize DNA miniprep protocol is used extensively for many plant species and different tissues. This slightly modified version is acceptable for most DNA extractions. The procedure has the advantage of isolating DNA from plant material very rapidly. The procedure requires a table-top drill-press (mechanized homogenizer). - [Read DNA Microprep Isolation from Plants Protocol]

Category: Plant Biology Protocols: Plant DNA RNA Isolation Protocols

The original maize DNA miniprep protocol is used extensively for many plant species and different tissues. This slightly modified version is acceptable for most DNA extractions. The procedure has the advantage of speed and its use of inexpensive reagents. - [Read DNA Miniprep Isolation from Plants Protocol]

Category: Plant Biology Protocols: Arabidopsis Genetics Protocols

Protocols for gene expression and protein localization in Arabidopsis. Includes: Detection of the native protein; Detection of a recombinant version; Immunofluorescence detection in Arabidopsis protoplasts; Isolation of Arabidopsis seedling protoplasts; Subcellular localization of GUS-fusion proteins in Arabidopsis seedlings; Localization of Arabidopsis proteins with GUS in situ enzyme assay. - [Read Gene Expression and Protein Localization in Arabidopsis Protocols]

Category: Reporter Gene Assays: GFP Assay Protocols

Green fluorescent protein is commonly used to monitor gene expression and protein trafficking within intact cells. The Monster Green® Fluorescent Protein is encoded by an improved synthetic version of the green fluorescent protein gene originally cloned from Montastrea cavernosa (Great Star Coral). - [Read Monster Green® Fluorescent Protein Assay]

Category: Plant Biology Protocols: Plant DNA RNA Isolation Protocols

Protocol is based on the standard Trizol protocol for the purification of RNA from animal cells using Trizol (Purification of RNA from Animal Cells using Trizol). In this version, adapted for use with plant tissues, a high-salt isopropanol precipitation step has been added to precipitate RNA selectively, while maintaining polysaccharides and proteoglycans in solution. - [Read Preparation of RNA from Plant Tissue Using Trizol]
