General description

Deoxyribonucleic acid sodium salt from herring testes, also known as HtDNA is a natural source of DNA designed for DNA binding agent studies. The detection limits of HtDNA are around 5.0ng and linear ranges of light scattering intensity (I(LS)) is 0.05-2.5 mµg.

Application

Deoxyribonucleic acid sodium salt from herring testes is used in studies of DNA binding agents that modulate DNA structure and function. Herring testes DNA is also used in physicochemical studies of DNA behavior in solution.

Detection of cytosolic DNA by the enzyme cGAS triggers the production of cGAMP, a second messenger that binds and activates the adaptor protein STING, which leads to interferon (IFN) production. Here, we found that in vivo natural killer (NK) cell killing

Cytosolic DNA activates cyclic guanosine monophosphate-adenosine monophosphate (cGAMP) synthase (cGAS), an innate immune sensor pivotal in anti-microbial defense, senescence, auto-immunity, and cancer. cGAS is considered to be a sequence-independent DNA sensor with limited access to nuclear DNA because of compartmentalization. However

HIV latency is the major barrier to a cure for people living with HIV (PLWH) on antiretroviral therapy (ART) because the virus persists in long-lived non-proliferating and proliferating latently infected CD4+ T cells. Latently infected CD4+ T cells do not

DNA damage can be sensed as a danger-associated molecular pattern by the innate immune system. Here we find that keratinocytes and other human cells mount an innate immune response within hours of etoposide-induced DNA damage, which involves the DNA sensing

The interaction of histone with nucleic acids was characterized by light-scattering measurement using a common spectrofluorometer. Thereby, a sensitive and convenient method for the determination of nucleic acids was established. At pH 4.5-6.5, the interaction of histone with nucleic acids
