Question
DNA Extraction by Alkaline Lysis
Procedure:
1. Spin 1.5 ml of cells in a microcentrifuge at maximum speed (12,000 rpm) for 20s to
pellet. Remove the supernatant completely with a Pasteur pipet or a plastic pipettor tip.
The spins can be performed at FC or at room temperature. Longer spins make it difficult
to resuspend cells.
2 Resuspend pellet in 100pul GTE solution and let sit 5 min at room temperature. Be sure
cells are completely resuspended.
3. Add 200ul NaOH/SDS solution, mix by tapping tube with finger, and place on ice for 5
min.
4.
Add 150ul potassium acetate solution and vortex at maximum speed for 2s to mix.
Place on ice for 5-15 min. Be sure mixing is complete.
5. Spin 3 min at 12,000 rpm to pellet cell debris and chromosomal DNA
6. Transfer 0.4 ml supernatant to a fresh tube, mix it with 0.8 ml of 95% ethanol or 0.4
ml isopropanol, and let sit 2 min at room temperature precipitate nucleic acids.
7. Spin at 12,000rpm for 3 min at room temperature to pellet plasmid DNA and RNA.
8.
Remove supernatant, wash the pellet with 70% ethanol, and dry pellet under vacuum.
9. Resuspend the pellet in 30ul TE buffer and store at 4'C. Contaminating RNA may
interfere with detection of DNA fragments on the agarose gel; it can be destroyed by
adding Iul of a 10 mg ml RNase solution (DNase-free).
Isolation of DNA from Banana
Procedure:
1) The precipitating agent was prepared by adding 1 tablespoon of salt and 5 tablespoons
ofiquid soap. Then, 100mL of hot water was mixed and stirred evenly.
2) A banana was peeled and chopped into small pieces, then it was placed in a bowl
withsufficient water and then mixed with the precipitating agent.
3) The banana was then mashed with a fork.
4) The mashed banana was then filtered through gauze with a strainer and the
filtrate iscollected in a transparent container.
5) The methylated spinit was then taken out from the fridge and mixed with the filtrate
gently, and the sample is observed for changes for 2-3 minutes.
6) The methylated spirit was then taken out from the fridge and mixed with the filtrate
gently, and the sample is observed for changes for 2-3 mimnutes.
Compare and contrast the difference between this two protocol (DNA Extraction by Alkaline
Lysis and Isolation of DNA from Banana)
