Zinc-regulated DNA binding of the yeast Zap1 zinc-responsive activator. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
The Zap1 transcription factor of Saccharomyces cerevisiae plays a central role in zinc homeostasis by controlling the expression of genes involved in zinc metabolism. Zap1 is active in zinc-limited cells and repressed in replete cells.

Ultrasensitive Detection of Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus Infections Using Multivalent DNA Nanostructure‐Enabled Lateral Flow Assay

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A multivalent DNA nanostructure‐enabled lateral flow assay was developed for rapid, ultrasensitive detection of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) nucleocapsid protein. Designer net‐shaped DNA nanostructures (DNA‐Net) presenting PEDV‐specific aptamers achieved ~1000‐fold enhanced binding, enabling detection of viral copies with Ct ≤ 37.42 within 10

Presence of RNase A Causes Aberrant DNA Band Shifts

BioTechniques, 1997
RNase A, which is routinely added during DNA purification to reduce contaminating RNA, causes shifting of DNA bands in agarose gels. DNA band sizes on agarose gels increase as much as 10%–20% when RNase A is present.
