Abstract
This DNA extraction protocol has been developed at the CIRM-Levures (INRAE, SPO, FRANCE) to extract yeast chromosomes. It is based on a phenol/chloroform DNA extraction procedure.
CELL LYSIS AND NUCLEIC ACID EXTRACTION
CELL LYSIS AND NUCLEIC ACID EXTRACTION
- Perform a 3 ml YPD (yeast extract 10g/l, bacto peptone 10g/l, glucose 10g/l) culture for 60h in order to harvest cells at stationary phase.
- Centrifuge 5 min at 5000 rpm and remove the supernatant.
- Wash the pellet with 5 ml of 50mM EDTA, transfer to a 2 ml screw cap tube and centrifuge for 5 min at 12000 rpm. Remove the supernatant.
- Add 0.2ml lysis buffer (50mM Tris pH 8, 50mM EDTA, 100mM NaCl, 2% Triton, 1% SDS), 0.2ml TE 1X (10mM Tris pH 8, 1mM EDTA), 0.2ml phenol/chloroform and 0.3g glass beads.
- Grind with the Digital Disruptor Genie (Scientific Industries, Bohemia, NY 11716 U.S.A) for 2 minutes at 2850 rpm.
- Centrifuge 5 min at 12000 rpm.
- Transfer the aqueous phase to a new tube, add 0.5 ml of chloroform and mix.
- Centrifuge 5 min at 12000 rpm.
- Transfer the aqueous phase to a new tube, add 0.5 ml of isopropanol and mix.
- Centrifuge for 5 min at 12000 rpm.
- Wash the pellet with 0.4 ml of 70% ethanol and let the tube dry.
- Re-suspend the DNA pellet in 490 µL of TE 1X and let overnight at 4 °C.
- Add 10 μl of RNase (100 mg/ml, Qiagen ref: 19101). Incubate for 60 min at 37 °C.
DNA PURIFICATION, Magnetic Beads BINDING
DNA PURIFICATION, Magnetic Beads BINDING
- To each sample, add 50 μl of 5 M NaCl, 15 μl of Chemagic CMG-252-A magnetic bead (PerkinElmer, Waltham, Massachusetts, U.S.A) suspension, 250 μl of 7.8M Guanidium chloride and 800 μl of isopropanol.
- Mix by inversion for 5 minutes.
- Set up the tubes on the magnetic rack (DynaMag™-2 Magnet type, Invitrogen ThermoFisher Scientific).
- Wait for 2 min. Remove the liquid.
- Perform a first wash with 1 ml of AMMLAV/E buffer (10 mM Tris pH 8.0, 0.1 mM EDTA, 60 mM potassium acetate, 65% ethanol) and mix gently to disintegrate the beads.
- Place the tubes on the magnetic rack. Wait 2 min. Remove the liquid.
- Repeat a second wash with 1 ml of AMMLAV/E buffer.
- Perform two more washes as above with 1 ml of 75% ethanol
- Air dry the beads at room temperature for 5 min.
- Add 0.1 ml of 1X TE. Mix well to re-suspend the beads in TE 1X. Incubate 10 min at room temperature.
- Place the tubes on the magnetic rack. Wait 5 min. Transfer the DNA solution to new storage tubes.
- The DNAs are then stored at -20°C.
