This post was written by Alfonso Timoneda, with significant contributions from Robert Hurt and Mohamed Soufi. So you’ve learned about the Modular Cloning (MoClo) system and what it can do for you, and you’ve chosen one of the MoClo kits available through Addgene that suits your ...
You have just purified your plasmid and are ready to move on to your downstream application — but wait! Do you know how much plasmid DNA you have or how pure your sample really is?
CoPurifying plasmid DNA from bacterial cultures is a core protocol in molecular biology. And whilekit-free plasmid purification is always an option, let’s be honest — kits are quick, easy, and don’t involve phenol-chloroform.
Ah, the notorious western blot: we meet again. So useful, yet so finicky to design and optimize. Today we’ll cover the normalization and loading controls needed for relative quantification of a western blot — and why you might want to be careful relying on so called ...
We recently updated our blog post on Prime Editing, and that meant rereading many of the original papers reporting various prime editing tools. These papers are chock full of great tips to guide your experimental design, especially the design of the RNA sequences you’ll use in ...
Injections in mice are a day-to-day task for many labs. Deciding which type of injection to use depends on a number of factors. You have to weigh the pros and cons of various methods and choose what is best for you — and the mice. While not an exhaustive list, these can include ...
