Description
Q-PAGE™ TGN (Tris-Glycine Novel) Precast Gels are ready-to-use acrylamide gels for SDS-PAGE running in Tris-Glycine buffer system. With unique formula, Q-PAGE™ TGN Precast Gels perform enhanced speed, better separation, and longer shelf life as compared with conventional Laemmli Tris-HCl gels. The protein migration patterns in Q-PAGE™ TGN series, however, are similar with typical Laemmli Tris-HCl gels, and thus Q-PAGE™ TGN Precast Gels are compatible to traditional SDS-PAGE and subsequent analyses.
Q-PAGE™ TGN Precast Gels are available in gradient (4 to 15%) and fixed (10%) concentrations of polyacrylamide in 12- and 15-well formats. Two available cassette sizes, Mini (10 x 8.3 cm) and Midi (10 x 10 cm), are compatible with most popular protein electrophoresis systems. Q-PAGE™ Mini (QP4XXX) Gels are suitable for Bio-Rad® and other systems. Q-PAGE™ Midi (QP5XXX) Gels are suitable for Invitrogen® XCell SureLock® Mini-Cell, Invitrogen® Mini Gel Tank, Hoefer SE260, and other systems.

Remove Q-PAGE™ Gel from Cassette
Open cassette immediately after electrophoresis. Avoid gel drying.
1.Insert the cassette opener into corners of cassette.
2.Sequentially pry the opener to separate the two plates.
3.Gently pull up notched plate and let gel stay on the front plate.
4.Use cassette opener to push through the slot in the cassette.
5.Carefully detach the gel from the bottom of gel.
- Avoid diagonally peeling the gel from the corner.
- If necessary, cut well separators with gel remover.
6.Gently remove the gel for further staining or Western blotting.
Gel Staining
Proteins separated using Q-PAGE™ Precast Gels can be further stained with most popular staining reagents, such as Coomassie dyes (R-250 or G-250), Silver-stain solution,
and FluoroStain™ Protein Fluorescent Staining Dye. (Cat. No. PS1000)
Transferring Protein from Q-PAGE™ to Blotting Membrane
1. After protein separation using Q-PAGE™, gently detach QPAGE™ from cassette and then equilibrate the gel in transfer buffer.
2. Pre-soak blotting membrane and filter papers in transfer buffer.
*Activate PVDF membrane in methanol before soaking in transfer buffer.
**Prepare 6 filter papers for one gel/membrane sandwich.
3. Assemble transfer sandwich by orientating cathode, sponge, filter papers, gel, membrane, filter papers, sponge, and anode. The protein goes to the direction of cathode to anode.
4. Carefully move roller over the gel/membrane to remove air bubbles and excess buffer until complete contact is established.
5. Insert transfer cassette into transfer module. Notice that black side of cassette should be next to black side of module.
6. Fill transfer tank with pre-cooled transfer buffer to the highest water level.
7. Set constant voltage at 100 V. Transfer for 90 minutes at low temperature condition. Pre-stained protein marker should be visible on the membrane after transfer is completed.
Transfer of proteins to the membrane can be checked using Ponceau S staining before blocking step.

内毒素是革兰氏阴性菌细胞壁(cellwall)上的特有成分,主要是脂多糖中的类脂A,在细菌被裂解时被释放出来,由于其化学结构和特性,在质粒的纯化过程中很容易混入质粒DNA一同提取出来。内毒素的存在会严重的影响质粒转染细胞的效率,此外会激活造血细胞(如B细胞、巨噬细胞等)的非特异免疫反应,造成实验的假阳性,所以转染级质粒的提取纯化必须去除内毒素。

转染技术的要点及转染试剂正确选择
转染技术是指将外源分子如DNA,RNA等导入真核细胞的技术,它是研究基因表达调控,突变分析等的常规工具。随着功能研究的兴起,其应用越来越广泛。以下就向大家介绍一些转染的技术要点及市面上主要的转染试剂类型的选择。
常规转染技术可分为两大类,一类是瞬时转染,一类是稳定转染(永久转染)。前者外源DNA/RNA不整合到宿主染色体中,因此一个宿主细胞中可存在多个拷贝数,产生高水平的表达,但通常只持续几天,多用于启动子和其它调控元件的分析。一般来说,超螺旋质粒DNA转染效率较高,在转染后24-96小时内(依赖于各种不同的构建)分析结果,常常用到一些报告系统如荧光蛋白,β半乳糖苷酶等来帮助检测。后者也称稳定转染,外源DNA既可以整合到宿主染色体中,也可能作为一种游离体(episome)存在。尽管线性DNA比超螺旋DNA转入量低但整合率高。外源DNA整合到染色体中概率很小,大约1/104转染细胞能整合,通常需要通过一些选择性标记,如来氨丙基转移酶(APH;新霉素抗性基因),潮霉素B磷酸转移酶(HPH),胸苷激酶(TK)等反复筛选,得到稳定转染的同源细胞系。
转染效率收多种因素影响,主要因素有下面几个:
1.细胞培养物
健康的细胞培养物是成功转染的基础。不同细胞有不同的培养基,血清和添加物。低的细胞代数(<50)能确保基因型不变。高的转染效率需要一定的细胞密度,一般的转染试剂都会有专门的说明。推荐在转染前24小时分细胞,这将提供正常细胞代谢,增加对外源DNA摄入的可能。一定要避免细菌,支原体或真菌的污染。
2.血清
大多数培养基在使用前需要加血清。胎牛血清(FCS)经常用到,便宜一点的有马或牛血清。通常的,血清是一种包含生长因子及其它辅助因子的不确切成分的添加物,对不同细胞的生长作用有很大的差别。血清质量的变化直接影响转染效率。因此在转染前建议先测(转右)试出对细胞生长良好的血清批号,转染时用同一批号的血清,并同时做负对照(不加转染试剂及外源DNA)以测试细胞生长是否正常。有些转染技术如脂质体转染在有血清存在情况下效率很低,因此在转染前要除血清。但有些对此敏感的细胞如原代细胞会受到损伤,甚至死亡导致转染效率极低。
3.载体构建
转染载体的构建(病毒载体,质粒DNA,RNA,PCR产物,寡核苷酸等)也影响转染结果。病毒载体对特定宿主细胞感染效率较高,但不同病毒载体有其特定的宿主,有的还要求特定的细胞周期,如逆转录病毒需侵染分裂期的宿主细胞,此外还需考虑一些安全问题(如基因污染)。除载体构建外,载体的形态及大小对转染效率也有不同的影响,如前面提到的超螺旋及线性DNA对瞬时和稳定转染的影响。如果基因产物对细胞有毒性作用,转染也很难进行,因此选择组成或可调控,强度合适的启动子也很重要,同时做空载体及其它基因的相同载体构建的转染正对照可排除毒性影响的干扰。
4.DNA质量
DNA质量对转染效率影响非常大。一般的转染技术(如脂质体等)基于电荷吸引原理,如果DNA不纯,如带少量的盐离子,蛋白,代谢物污染都会显著影响转染复合物的有效形成及转染的进行。核酸纯化世界第一品牌德国Qiagen公司提供的超纯质粒抽提试剂盒,能达到两倍2xCsCl梯度离心以上的纯度效果,使您不必为DNA质量操心。此外,对一些内毒素敏感的细胞(如原代细胞,悬浮细胞和造血细胞),QIAGEN还提供可去除内毒素污染的质粒抽提试剂盒,在质粒抽提过程中有效去除脂多糖分子,保证理想的转染效果。
5.转染技术
转染技术的选择对转染结果影响也很大,许多转染方法需要优化DNA与转染试剂比例,细胞数量,培养及检测时间等。一些传统的转染技术,如DEAE右旋糖苷法,磷酸钙法,电穿孔法,脂质体法各有利弊,其主要原理及应用特点见下:
转染方法原理应用特点
DEAE-右旋糖苷法
带正电的DEAE-右旋糖苷与核酸带负电的磷酸骨架相互作用形成的复合物被细胞内吞瞬时性转染相对简便、结果可重复但对细胞有一定的毒副作用,转染时需除血清
磷酸钙法
磷酸钙DNA复合物吸附细胞膜被细胞内吞稳定转染,瞬时性转染不适用于原代细胞,操作简便但重复性差,有些细胞不适用。
电穿孔法
高脉冲电压破坏细胞膜电位,DNA通过膜上形成的小孔导入稳定转染,瞬时性转染,所有细胞适用性广但细胞致死率高,DNA和细胞用量大,需根据不同细胞类型优化电穿孔实验条件
阳离子性的脂质体法
带正电的脂质体与核酸带负电的磷酸基团形成复合物被细胞内吞稳定转染
瞬时性转染,所有细胞适用性广,转染效率高,重复性好但转染时需除血清
转染效果随细胞类型变化大
病毒介导法
逆转录病毒通过侵染宿主细胞将外源基因整合到染色体中稳定转染,特定宿主细胞可用于难转染的细胞、原代细胞,体内细胞等,但携带基因不能太大
细胞需处分裂期,需考虑安全因素,腺病毒瞬时转染,特定宿主细胞可用于难转染的细胞,需考虑安全因素。
Biolistic颗粒传递法
将DNA用显微重金属颗粒沉淀,再将包被好的颗粒用弹道装置投射入细胞,DNA在胞内逐步释放,表达瞬时性转染可用于:人的表皮细胞,纤维原细胞,淋巴细胞系以及原代细胞
显微注射法
用显微操作将DNA直接注入靶细胞核稳定转染,瞬时性转染转染细胞数有限,多用于工程改造或转基因动物的胚胎细胞。
但是在选择的时候,也需要注意其他的一些问题。
1、采用何种原料和抗体,是否高效、灵敏、特异
2、规范包被操作,吸附是否均匀
3、重复性、可靠性
6、是否提供技术服务
7、适用于血浆、血清、组织匀浆液、细胞培养上清液、尿液等多种类型的样本
8、可检测动物类型是否丰富
9、可检测指标是否齐全

使用方法:
1、 血清:操作过程中避免任何细胞刺激。使用不含热原和内毒素的试管。收集血液后,1000×g离心10分钟将血红细胞迅速小心地分离。
2、 血浆:EDTA、柠檬酸盐、肝素血浆可用于检测。1000×g离心30分钟去除颗粒。
3、 细胞上清液:1000×g离心10分钟去除颗粒和聚合物。
4、 组织匀浆:将组织加入适量生理盐水捣碎。1000×g离心10分钟,取上清液。
5、 保存:如果样品不立即使用,应将其分成小部分-70℃保存,避免反复冷冻。尽可能的不要使用溶血或高血脂血。如果血清中大量颗粒,检测前先离心或过滤。不要在37℃或更高的温度加热解冻。应在室温下解冻并确保样品均匀地充分解冻。
