Isolation of newly synthesized mercurated RNA transcripts by chromatography on sulfhydryl-agarose has recently been used to reduce contamination by endogenous RNA derived from the chromatin template. We show that substantial RNA aggregation occurs during standard isolation procedures, causing significant retention of endogenous (unmercurated) RNA on sulfhydryl-agarose. We describe methods to reduce substantially this problem and discuss the implications of our findings for interpretation of previous hybridization and transcription experiments.
最近,通过巯基琼脂糖层析分离新合成的汞化RNA转录本已被用于减少来自染色质模板的内源性RNA的污染。我们发现,在标准分离过程中会发生大量RNA聚集,导致内源性(未汞化)RNA在巯基琼脂糖上大量保留。我们描述了大幅减少这一问题的方法,并讨论了我们的发现对解释先前杂交和转录实验的影响。
