DNA binding fluorescent proteins are a powerful tool for single-molecule visualization. In this chapter, we discuss a protocol for the synthesis of DNA binding fluorescent proteins and visualization of single DNA molecules. This chapter includes stepwise methods for molecular cloning, reversible staining, two-color staining, sequence-specific staining, and microscopic visualization of single DNA molecules in a microfluidic device. This content will be useful for DNA characterization using DNA binding fluorescent proteins and its visualization at the single-molecule level.
DNA 结合荧光蛋白是单分子可视化的有力工具。在本章中,我们讨论了合成 DNA 结合荧光蛋白和可视化单 DNA 分子的方案。本章包括分子克隆、可逆染色、双色染色、序列特异性染色和在微流控装置中单 DNA 分子的微观可视化的分步方法。这部分内容将有助于使用 DNA 结合荧光蛋白进行 DNA 特征分析及其在单分子水平的可视化。
