RNA and DNA extraction kits take formalin-fixed tissue samples by storm, enabling superior quality and yields. Researchers using standard extraction protocols that heat samples to eliminate ...
High-resolution mapping of active RNA polymerase II transcription initiation provides a dynamic view of gene expression and reveals the entire spectrum of RNA transcripts—from stable mRNAs to ...
Glycosylation shapes the structure, interactions and signaling properties of its targets 1,2, which traditionally are considered to be proteins and lipids. With the exception of monosaccharide ...
Scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) say they have developed a simpler process for messenger RNA (mRNA) purification based on continuous precipitation. According to Maria ...
To obtain high-quality, purified nucleic acids, scientists can use several different methods, including phenol-chloroform extraction, cesium chloride/ethidium bromide (CsCl/EtBr) gradient ...
