mtDNA拷贝数的生物学意义及其调控

线粒体是细胞能量和自由基代谢中心,并在细胞凋亡、钙调控、细胞周期和信号转导中发挥重要作用,维持线粒体功能正常对于细胞正常行使职能意义重大。线粒体的功能与线粒体DNA（mitochondrial DNA,mtDNA）的数量和质量紧密相关,mtDNA的数量即mtDNA拷贝数又受到mtDNA质量的影响,因此mtDNA拷贝数可作为线粒体功能的重要表征。mtDNA拷贝数变异引起线粒体功能紊乱,进而导致疾病发生。本文综述了mtDNA拷贝数变异与神经退行性疾病、心血管疾病、肿瘤等疾病的发生发展和个体衰老之间的关系,以及mtDNA复制转录相关因子、氧化应激、细胞自噬等因素介导mtDNA拷贝数变异的调控机制。以期为进一步深入探究mtDNA拷贝数调控的分子机制,以及未来治疗神经退行性疾病、肿瘤及延缓衰老等提供一定的理论基础。

An improved method for rapid isolation of plasmid DNA from wild-type Gram-negative bacteria for plasmid restriction profile analysis

An improved method for the isolation of large and small plasmids from wild-type Gram-negative bacteria has been developed. The protocol combines the lysis and purification procedures of two popular plasmid isolation methods, and produces DNA sufficiently pure for restriction enzyme digestion in less than three hours.     

Purification of mitochondrial DNA from total cellular DNA of small tissue samples

A method is presented for the isolation of highly purified mitochondrial (mt)DNA from a crude DNA extract, making use of the different mobilities of covalently closed circular mtDNA vs. endonuclease-digested nuclear DNA in agarose gels. The preparation is virtually free of any contaminating linear DNA, as judged from its electron microscopic appearance, and can be used for further procedures such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Since isolation of mitochondria is not a prerequisite for this method, it can be applied to tissue samples in the mg range. In principle, the method can be applied to every eukaryotic species, provided a molecular hybridization probe is available which permits the position of mtDNA to be located in an agarose gel. This probe can be a cDNA, a DNA fragment generated by PCR, or mtDNA itself, if only the approximate size of the genome is known.     

A procedure for the isolation and purification of plasmid DNA from Rhizobium meliloti

A procedure is described for the isolation and purification of the DNA of plasmids that are indigenous to the agriculturally important nitrogen-fixing bacterium Rhizobium meliloti. The procedure involves the lysis of bacteria with an ionic detergent or a mixture of ionic and nonionic detergents, the extraction of total DNA from precipitated membrane-DNA complexes, the enrichment of supercoiled plasmid DNA by the selective alkaline denaturation of chromosomal DNA, and a further purification of plasmid DNA using cesium chloridepropidium diiodide gradients. This procedure yields pure plasmid DNA in amounts of 30 to 50 μg per liter of a culture of cell density of approximately one A550 unit. The DNA thus obtained has been found to be of sufficient purity to serve as substrate for the most commonly used restriction endonucleases.     

Comparative analysis of environmental DNA extraction and purification methods from different humic acid-rich soils

AIM: To establish a rapid, improved soil environmental DNA extraction and purification protocol. METHODS AND RESULTS: Three different soil DNA isolation and four purification strategies were compared on different soil samples with variable rates of success. Bead beating extraction gave significantly higher DNA yields than microwave-based and liquid nitrogen grinding DNA extraction methods. The inclusion of soil washing prior to cell lysis decreased the amount of purification steps required. Although these soil types differed, polyvinylpolypyrrolidone (PVPP)-sepharose 2B column elution was sufficient for all three samples, yielding DNA pure enough for successful application in molecular studies. One soil sample retained 80% of the initial DNA after successful purification. CONCLUSIONS: Optimization of a purification protocol confirmed that only a combination of previously described methods proved sufficient in yielding pure environmental DNA from humic-rich soils. Total processing time for DNA extraction and subsequent purification from multiple samples was considerably more rapid than the previously described methods. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This study developed a new optimized soil DNA extraction and purification protocol that is suitable for different environmental sources that are rich in humic acid content.     

Isolation of the proviral coding strand of avian myeloblastosis virus from leukemic chicken myeloblast by affinity chromatography.

The coding strand of the integrated proviral DNA of avian myeloblastosis virus (AMV) was isolated from the DNA of leukemic chicken myeloblast. The three-step isolation procedure employed a combination of affinity chromatography with Sepharose-linked RNA, nucleic acid hybridization, and hydroxypatite chromatography techniques. At each step of purification the product was analyzed for the enrichment of AMV coding strand by hybridization with AMV RNA. The final product was the coding strand of the AMV DNA (90% pure). These results show that such a procedure can be used for the isolation and analysis of a specific structural gens of eukaryotic cells.     

Isolation of high-molecular-weight DNA from insects.

A simple and rapid method for the isolation of high-molecular-weight DNA from insects is described. The method does not require CsCl ultracentrifugation or extensive dialysis. High-molecular-weight DNA was obtained within 24 h. Since the entire insect was used for DNA isolation, an initial nuclei-enriched fraction was required. Genomic DNA was extracted from lysed nuclei by organic phase separation (liquid/liquid extraction). This method has been successfully applied to the isolation and purification of DNA from eight different adult insects (Heliothis zea, Musca autumnalis, M. domestica, Blatta orientalis, Tenebrio molitor, Lymantria dispar, Ostrinia nubilalis, and Manduca sexta). The recovered DNA can be cleaved with restriction endonucleases, ligated efficiently using standard cloning vectors, and hybridized to synthetic oligonucleotides.     

Rapid and inexpensive recovery method of DNA fragments from agarose and polyacrylamide gels by a cotton-wool column tube.

We developed a rapid, convenient, simple, and inexpensive method for isolating pure DNA from agarose and polyacrylamide gels using cotton wool tubes. DNA fragments ranging in size from 193-23,130 bp can be easily recovered within 2 hours by centrifugation through cotton wool from gel slices. The recovery rate of this method is 35% to 50%, when estimated for isolation of lambda DNA-HindIII fragments. We have also recovered 700-bp polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products using cotton wool tubes from electrophoresis on both a 0.8% agarose gel and a 6% polyacrylamide gel, in which satisfactory yields of more than 50% were obtained. The DNA thus recovered in this way is biologically active and can be used as a substrate for further experimental procedures without additional purification steps.     

Optimization of a high-throughput CTAB-based protocol for the extraction of qPCR-grade DNA from rumen fluid, plant and bacterial pure cultures

The quality and yield of extracted DNA are critical for the majority of downstream applications in molecular biology. Moreover, molecular techniques such as quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) are becoming increasingly widespread; thus, validation and cross-laboratory comparison of data require standardization of upstream experimental procedures. DNA extraction methods depend on the type and size of starting material(s) used. As such, the extraction of template DNA is arguably the most significant variable when cross-comparing data from different laboratories. Here, we describe a reliable, inexpensive and rapid method of DNA purification that is equally applicable to small or large scale or high-throughput purification of DNA. The protocol relies on a CTAB-based buffer for cell lysis and further purification of DNA with phenol : chloroform : isoamyl alcohol. The protocol has been used successfully for DNA purification from rumen fluid and plant cells. Moreover, after slight alterations, the same protocol was used for large-scale extraction of DNA from pure cultures of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The yield of the DNA obtained with this method exceeded that from the same samples using commercial kits, and the quality was confirmed by successful qPCR applications.     

Isolation of polysaccharide-free DNA from plants

A quick procedure for the isolation of polysaccharide-free DNA from different plant species and cell suspension or callus cultures is described. The originality of the method lies in the use of a mixture of glycoside hydrolases that leads, after phenol and chloroform extraction, to the isolation of pure DNA without any polysaccharide contamination. The highly purified DNA can be used for nucleotide analysis by HPLC, RFLP analysis and PCR amplification.
