This unit describes procedures for generating long-range restriction maps of genomic DNA and for analysis of large insert clones. The basic protocol details restriction digestion of agarose-embedded DNA, PFGE separation, Southern transfer, and hybridization. Support protocols describe the preparation of high-molecular-weight genomic DNA samples in agarose blocks and in agarose microbeads, respectively. Additional support protocols describe the preparation of DNA size standards from l phage and two yeast species, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe. An alternative method of preparing S. cerevisiae size standards using lithium dodecyl sulfate (LiDS) solubilization is provided. The final protocol details the preparation of BAC DNA suitable for digestion, mapping, and sequencing.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008970 Molecular Weight The sum of the weight of all the atoms in a molecule. Molecular Weights,Weight, Molecular,Weights, Molecular
D010582 Bacteriophage lambda A temperate inducible phage and type species of the genus lambda-like viruses, in the family SIPHOVIRIDAE. Its natural host is E. coli K12. Its VIRION contains linear double-stranded DNA with single-stranded 12-base 5' sticky ends. The DNA circularizes on infection. Coliphage lambda,Enterobacteria phage lambda,Phage lambda,lambda Phage
D002460 Cell Line Established cell cultures that have the potential to propagate indefinitely. Cell Lines,Line, Cell,Lines, Cell
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).
