Rapid and quantitative recovery of DNA fragments from gels by displacement electrophoresis (isotachophoresis). 1984

L G Ofverstedt, and K Hammarström, and N Balgobin, and S Hjertén, and U Pettersson, and J Chattopadhyaya

The use of displacement electrophoresis (synonymous to isotachophoresis, steady-state stacking, and moving boundary electrophoresis) for recovery of DNA fragments from agarose and polyacrylamide gels is described. Complete recovery of DNA molecules ranging from oligonucleotides to 20 000-basepairs-long fragments was achieved. The DNA is recovered in a small volume (0.1-0.3 ml) and can be used directly in enzyme-mediated cleavage and ligation reactions. The recovered DNA contained no inhibitory contaminants as revealed by ligation or restriction enzyme cleavage.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009838 Oligodeoxyribonucleotides A group of deoxyribonucleotides (up to 12) in which the phosphate residues of each deoxyribonucleotide act as bridges in forming diester linkages between the deoxyribose moieties. Oligodeoxynucleotide,Oligodeoxyribonucleotide,Oligodeoxynucleotides
D009841 Oligonucleotides Polymers made up of a few (2-20) nucleotides. In molecular genetics, they refer to a short sequence synthesized to match a region where a mutation is known to occur, and then used as a probe (OLIGONUCLEOTIDE PROBES). (Dorland, 28th ed) Oligonucleotide
D010957 Plasmids Extrachromosomal, usually CIRCULAR DNA molecules that are self-replicating and transferable from one organism to another. They are found in a variety of bacterial, archaeal, fungal, algal, and plant species. They are used in GENETIC ENGINEERING as CLONING VECTORS. Episomes,Episome,Plasmid
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). DNA, Double-Stranded,Deoxyribonucleic Acid,ds-DNA,DNA, Double Stranded,Double-Stranded DNA,ds DNA
D004274 DNA, Recombinant Biologically active DNA which has been formed by the in vitro joining of segments of DNA from different sources. It includes the recombination joint or edge of a heteroduplex region where two recombining DNA molecules are connected.
