TL;DR: The technique has evolved from generically detecting the presence of disease cells in individuals to the identification of a specific gene, such as BCL-6, which is prognostic for determining the therapeutic outcome of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

TL;DR: Woodward's Reagent K was used to activate the carboxyl group of protected amino acids and subsequent reaction with trimethylsilylisothiocyanate consistently resulted in high yields of the 1-NFmoc-2-thiohydantoins.

13 Jan 2009TL;DR: In this paper, a polypeptide comprising double-strand specific RNA ligase activity was used to detect one or more species of RNA molecules without an intervening purification step.
Abstract: Compositions, methods, and kits for detecting one or more species of RNA molecules are disclosed. In one embodiment, a first adaptor and a second adaptor are ligated to the RNA molecule using a polypeptide comprising double-strand specific RNA ligase activity, without an intervening purification step. The ligated product is reverse transcribed, then at least some of the ribonucleosides in the reverse transcription product are removed. Primers are added and amplified products are generated. In certain embodiments, the sequence of at least part of at least one species of amplified product is determined and at least part of the corresponding RNA molecule is determined. In some embodiments, at least some of the amplified product species are detected, directly or indirectly, allowing the presence and/or quantity of the RNA molecule of interest to be determined.

TL;DR: A nonradioactive ELISA is developed for the accurate quantitation of cAMP levels produced in cell-based assays, and the application of this novel assay technology to the functional analysis of a specific G protein-coupled receptor, neuropeptide receptor Y1, on SK-N-MC cells is demonstrated.
Abstract: The second messenger 3', 5'-cyclic AMP (cAMP) is a highly regulated molecule that is governed by G protein-coupled receptor activation and other cellular processes. Measurement of cAMP levels in cells is widely used as an indicator of receptor function in drug discovery applications. We have developed a nonradioactive ELISA for the accurate quantitation of cAMP levels produced in cell-based assays. This novel competitive assay utilizes chemiluminescent detection that affords both a sensitivity and a dynamic assay range that have not been previously reported with any other assay methodologies. The assay has been automated in 96- and 384-well formats, providing assay data that are equivalent to, if not better than, data generated by hand. This report demonstrates the application of this novel assay technology to the functional analysis of a specific G protein-coupled receptor, neuropeptide receptor Y1, on SK-N-MC cells. Our data indicate the feasibility of utilizing this assay methodology for monitoring cAMP levels in a wide range of functional cell-based assays for high throughput screening.

31 Mar 1997TL;DR: In this paper, the authors mounted micromachined diffraction gratings onto CCD imaging devices for high dispersion and high sensitivity applications, and the other for low-cost consumer applications.
Abstract: Miniature spectrometers were demonstrated by mounting micromachined diffraction gratings onto CCD imaging devices. Two implementations were tested: one for high dispersion and high sensitivity applications, and the other for low-cost consumer applications. The first system showed a dispersion of 1.7 nm/pixel and a resolution of 74.4 for the bandwidth of interest. The free spectral range of these devices was designed to be in the visible range for this particular application. The diffraction efficiency of the system was 63%. The second, low-cost system demonstrated a dispersion and resolution of 2.55 nm/pixel and 69.8 respectively. These specifications are comparable to that of a conventional, low-end commercial spectrometer. Results are shown for their applications in biochemical analysis. Optimization was sought by adding micromachined lenses and creating specialized, computer generated gratings to compress and shape the spectral signal.
