Application

This preparation is used as a carrier for the precipitation of nucleic acids (DNA or RNA). As an inert material it may replace tRNAs or sonicated DNAs.
20 μg glycogen (1 μl solution) allow to precipitate pg-amounts of DNA or RNA from a volume of 1 ml.
In a typical experiment 5 pg [3H]-labeled calf thymus DNA were dissolved in 500 μl 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0; 1 mM EDTA; 0.4 M LiCl. 1μl glycogen solution (20 μg glycogen) as carrier was added and then precipitated with 1.2 ml ethanol at -15 to -25 °C and stored for 3 hours at -15 to -25 °C. After centrifugation (10 minutes at 12 000 × g) the total radioactivity was found in the precipitate. Without addition of glycogen no precipitation of DNA occured.

Features and Benefits

Glycogen, in special quality for molecular biology, is an inert carrier in nucleic acid preparations.

Progerin accumulation disrupts nuclear lamina integrity and causes nuclear structure abnormalities, leading to premature aging, that is, Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS). The roles of nuclear subcompartments, such as PML nuclear bodies (PML NBs), in HGPS pathogenesis, are unclear. Here, we

Unfiltered and filtered water samples can be used to collect environmental DNA (eDNA). We developed the novel "Preserve, Precipitate, Lyse, Precipitate, Purify" (PPLPP) workflow to efficiently extract eDNA from Longmire's preserved unfiltered and filtered water samples (44-100% recovery). The PPLPP

In vitro transcription of DNA with phage RNA polymerases is currently the most efficient method to produce long sequence-specific RNA. While the reaction can yield large quantities of RNA, it contains impurities due to various unwanted activities of the polymerases.
