A crude method of DNA extraction and identification from exfoliated human buccal mucosa cells
Background: DNA analysis has a key role in forensic dentistry. However, techniques of DNA extraction and analysis are far from the reach of majority of medical professionals owing to its expensive set up. Aim: The present study was aimed at formulating a

Lipopolysaccharide is a frequent contaminant of plasmid DNA preparations and can be toxic to primary cells in the presence of adenovirus [PDF]
Endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS) is commonly found as a contaminant in plasmid DNA preparations. We demonstrate here that the quantities of LPS typically contaminating DNA preparations can generate a toxicity to primary cells (primary human skin ...

Impacts of DNA extraction and PCR on DNA metabarcoding estimates of soil biodiversity
Soils are ubiquitous and important components of terrestrial ecosystems, richly populated with diverse organisms with important ecological roles. DNA metabarcoding is a promising tool for efficient and taxonomically comprehensive analyses of soil ...

In situ molecular organization and heterogeneity of the Legionella Dot/Icm T4SS
We present a nearly complete in situ model of the Legionella Dot/Icm type IV secretion system, revealing its central secretion channel and identifying new components. Using cryo‐electron tomography with AI‐based modeling, our work highlights the structure, variability, and mechanism of this complex nanomachine, advancing understanding of bacterial ...

DNA Renaturation at the Water-Phenol Interface [PDF]
We study DNA adsorption and renaturation in a water-phenol two-phase system, with or without shaking. In very dilute solutions, single-stranded DNA is adsorbed at the interface in a salt-dependent manner.

The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Optimization of DNA extraction from seeds and fresh leaf tissues of Soybean (Glycine max) [PDF]
The effects of various components on extraction buffer such as SDS-NaCI, PVP, p-mercaptoethanol, extraction with Phenol:Chloroform:lsoamyl acetate, and incubation time on the DNA extraction from seeds and fresh leaves of Soybean (Glycine max)were ...

Genomic Dna Extraction Method From Mature Leaf Of Lai (Durio Kutejensis Becc.) [PDF]
Lai (Durio kutejensis Becc.) is an indigeneous germplasm of Kalimantan which has some superiorities compared to its close-relative, durian (Durio zibethinus Murr.). Genetic exploration of lai is important to support its breeding program.
