16 Apr 1998TL;DR: In this article, a process for binding nucleic acid to solid phase matrices exhibiting sufficient hydrophilicity and electropositivity to tightly bind the nucleic acids from a sample is described.
Abstract: This invention is directed to a process for tightly binding nucleic acid to solid phase and corresponding processes for the utilization thereof. Nucleic acid is bound to solid phase matrices exhibiting sufficient hydrophilicity and electropositivity to tightly bind the nucleic acids from a sample. These processes include nucleic acid (double or single stranded DNA and RNA) capture from high volume and/or low concentration specimens, buffer changes, washes, and volume reductions, and enable the interface of solid phase bound nucleic acid with enzyme, hybridization or amplification strategies. The tightly bound nucleic acid may be used, for example, in repeated analyses to confirm results or test additional genes in both research and commercial applications. Further, a method is described for virus extraction, purification, and solid phase amplification from large volume plasma specimens.

TL;DR: Comparison of the Arabidopsis data with Blue-native/SDS-PAGE separation of potato and bean mitochondria confirmed the protein band complexity of these two respiratory complexes in plants, and similarity between new complex II subunits and recently identified plant specific subunits of complex I suggest novel biological insights can be gained from respiratory complex composition analysis.
Abstract: Respiratory oxidative phosphorylation represents a central functionality in plant metabolism, but the subunit composition of the respiratory complexes in plants is still being defined. Most notably, complex II (succinate dehydrogenase) and complex IV (cytochrome c oxidase) are the least defined in plant mitochondria. Using Arabidopsis mitochondrial samples and 2D Blue-native/SDS-PAGE, we have separated complex II and IV from each other and displayed their individual subunits for analysis by tandem mass spectrometry and Edman sequencing. Complex II can be discretely separated from other complexes on Blue-native gels and consists of eight protein bands. It contains the four classical SDH subunits as well as four subunits unknown in mitochondria from other eukaryotes. Five of these proteins have previously been identified, while three are newly identified in this study. Complex IV consists of 9-10 protein bands, however, it is more diffuse in Blue-native gels and co-migrates in part with the translocase of the outer membrane (TOM) complex. Differential analysis of TOM and complex IV reveals that complex IV probably contains eight subunits with similarity to known complex IV subunits from other eukaryotes and a further six putative subunits which all represent proteins of unknown function in Arabidopsis . Comparison of the Arabidopsis data with Blue-native/SDS-PAGE separation of potato and bean mitochondria confirmed the protein band complexity of these two respiratory complexes in plants. Two-dimensional Blue-native/Blue-native PAGE, using digitonin followed by dodecylmaltoside in successive dimensions, separated a diffusely staining complex containing both TOM and complex IV. This suggests that the very similar mass of these complexes will likely prevent high purity separations based on size. The documented roles of several of the putative complex IV subunits in hypoxia response and ozone stress, and similarity between new complex II subunits and recently identified plant specific subunits of complex I, suggest novel biological insights can be gained from respiratory complex composition analysis.

TL;DR: A semi-automated method for large-scale multiplex analysis of nucleic acid sequences, using the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene as an example, is described in this paper.
Abstract: We describe a non-isotopic, semi-automated method for large-scale multiplex analysis of nucleic acid sequences, using the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene as an example. Products of a multiplex oligonucleotide ligation assay (OLA) are resolved electrophoretically from one another and from unligated probes under denaturing conditions with fluorescence detection. One ligation probe for each OLA target carries a fluorescent tag, while the other probe carries an oligomeric non-nucleotide mobility modifier. Each OLA product has a unique electrophoretic mobility determined by the ligated oligonucleotides and the mobility-modifier oligomer arbitrarily assigned (coded) to its target. The mobility range for practical mobility modifiers is much wider than the accessible range from unmodified ligated oligonucleotides of practical length. Each mobility modifier is built from phosphoramidite monomers in a stepwise manner on its associated oligonucleotide using an automated synthesizer. The resulting mobility modifiers lower the probe-target duplex Tm by less than 3 degrees C and retard probe-target annealing by less than 50%, with negligible effect on OLA yield and specificity. This method is especially useful for allelic discrimination in highly polymorphic genes such as CFTR.

TL;DR: A robust sample processing method combining albumin depletion, trypsin digestion, and solid phase extraction of the proteotypic peptides starting from only 100 μl of serum is developed and optimized, and results showed good correlation with existing ELISA tests applied to the same samples.
