A PCR-mediated direct cloning for target spot DNA from RLGS gel has been established. The method consists of PCR amplification of adaptor-ligated spot DNA fragments without excluding similar-sized DNA fragments co-localized on RLGS gel, and following selective ligation with the NotI-dT vector. Applying this method, we have successfully cloned several DNA fragments derived from target spots whose intensities change developmentally due to DNA methylation in the telencephalon of C3H/HeN mice. Since only a few micrograms of total DNA is sufficient for our spot cloning, our method may be highly useful when the total DNA sample prepared for cloning is limited.
已建立一种用于从RLGS凝胶中直接克隆目标斑点DNA的PCR介导方法。该方法包括对连接了接头的斑点DNA片段进行PCR扩增,而不排除共定位在RLGS凝胶上的大小相似的DNA片段,随后与NotI-dT载体进行选择性连接。应用该方法,我们成功克隆了几个源自目标斑点的DNA片段,这些斑点的强度在C3H/HeN小鼠端脑中因DNA甲基化而发生发育性变化。由于仅几微克的总DNA就足以进行我们的斑点克隆,当用于克隆的总DNA样品有限时,我们的方法可能非常有用。
