Determining the precise expression pattern of a gene of interest at various stages of development is essential to understanding its biological function in embryology. This protocol describes a sensitive method for whole-mount in situ hybridization (WISH) to mouse embryos, using cRNA probes. Adaptations are provided that allow the protocol to be applied to embryonic stages ranging from blastocysts to postimplantation stage embryos, and to embryoid bodies. We also describe an in situ method for differential detection of two probes. Probe labeling and dissection and preparation of the embryos can be performed in 2 d. The actual WISH procedure can be completed in another 3 d.  相似文献

3H-labeled DNA probes for the ecdysterone-inducible Drosophila genes P1 and LSP-2 were hybridized in situ to RNA in sections of embryos and larvae. Intense hybridization was detected specifically in fat body cells of third-instar larvae and not in other cells of third-instar larvae nor in any cells at earlier stages. These results confirm the stringent tissue- and stage-specificity of P1 and LSP-2 expression. Hybridization of both probes occurred to virtually all the cells in the fat bodies, indicating that both genes are expressed in the same cells. Since P1 expression begins several hours later than LSP-2 expression, and appears to be induced directly by ecdysterone, this finding implies that one or more of the fat body components mediating the response to ecdysterone is gene-specific.  相似文献

We present the preparation of an ion exchange paper which can be used as a solid carrier in the transfer of RNA from gels. In addition to detection by blot hybridization to specific probes, transferred RNA can be characterized by cell-free translation in situ. Preparation of the paper is simple, inexpensive and reproducible. Examples of applications are shown and possible other applications are discussed.  相似文献

Several studies have shown the use of non-radioactive labelled DNA probes for in situ hybridisation, mainly to identify cellular DNA. In this study mRNA in situ hybridisation was performed on rat pituitary with biotinylated complementary (c) RNA probes for rat prolactin and growth hormone (GH), and compared with radioactive 35S-radiolabelled probes. Biotinylated cRNA probes were labelled with either biotin-11-UTP or with allylamine-UTP, the latter method being able to produce a higher yield of labelled RNA. Different detection systems were tested, and hybridisation signal was seen in cells of anterior pituitary with both types of biotinylated probes. The signals were detected using either avidin-biotin-complex with peroxidase (ABC), peroxidase-anti-peroxidase (PAP) or gold-silver methods. ABC peroxidase detected using glucose oxidase-diaminobenzidine (DAB)-nickel solution appeared to be the best method for detecting labelled RNA probes, with very strong signal and low background. The biotinylated probes were comparable in sensitivity to the radiolabelled probes in detecting prolactin and GH mRNAs in the anterior lobe of the rat pituitary. These results indicate an alternative methods of labelling and detection of biotinylated probes which could have a potential role in research and diagnostic techniques.  相似文献

In situ hybridization has become a standard method for localizing DNA or RNA sequences in cytological preparations. We developed two methods to extend this technique to the transmission electron microscope level using mouse satellite DNA hybridization to whole mount metaphase chromosomes as the test system. The first method devised is a direct extension of standard light microscope level using mouse satellite DNA hybridization to whole mount metaphase chromosomes as the test system. The first method devised is a direct extension of standard light microscope in situ hybridization. Radioactively labeled complementary RNA (cRNA) is hybridized to metaphase chromosomes deposited on electron microscope grids and fixed in 70 percent ethanol vapor; hybridixation site are detected by autoradiography. Specific and intense labeling of chromosomal centromeric regions is observed even after relatively short exposure times. Inerphase nuclei present in some of the metaphase chromosome preparations also show defined paatterms of satellite DNA labeling which suggests that satellite-containing regions are associate with each other during interphase. The sensitivity of this method is estimated to at least as good as that at the light microscope level while the resolution is improved at least threefold. The second method, which circumvents the use of autoradiogrphic detection, uses biotin-labeled polynucleotide probes. After hybridization of these probes, either DNA or RNA, to fixed chromosomes on grids, hybrids are detected via reaction is improved at least threefold. The second method, which circumvents the use of autoradiographic detection, uses biotin-labeled polynucleotide probes. After hybridization of these probes, either DNA or RNA, to fixed chromosomes on grids, hybrids are detected via reaction with an antibody against biotin and secondary antibody adsorbed to the surface of over centromeric heterochromatin and along the associated peripheral fibers. Labeling is on average ten times that of background binding. This method is rapid and possesses the potential to allow precise ultrastructual localization of DNA sequences in chromosomes and chromatin.  相似文献
