Met behulp van de Gene Puiser MXcell Elektroporatie systeem om primaire cellen transfecteren met een hoog rendement


JoVE 1662 1/07/2010

Gene Expression Division, Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc.

Deze procedure laat zien hoe de Gene Puiser MXcell elektroporatie systeem te gebruiken om snel en gemakkelijk identificeren van de beste elektroporatie voorwaarden voor muis embryonale fibroblasten (MEF) of andere primaire cellen. Overwegingen voor het oplossen van problemen worden ook besproken in de bijbehorende video.

Met behulp van een geautomatiseerde cel Counter aan Gene Expression Studies Vereenvoudigen: siRNA Knockdown van IL-4 Afhankelijk van genexpressie in cellen Namalwa


JoVE 1904 4/14/2010

Gene Expression Division, Bio-Rad Laboratories

Deze procedure beschrijft een snelle en eenvoudige workflow om siRNA te introduceren in moeilijk om cellijnen te transfecteren en gen-expressie te volgen door real-time PCR. Het gebruik van een geautomatiseerd celgetalmeter, multi-well plaat elektroporatie, en geautomatiseerde elektroforese station zorgen voor een snelle en betrouwbare resultaten, zonder de noodzaak voor dure robot handling.

Nephromyces, a Beneficial Apicomplexan Symbiont in Marine Animals

With malaria parasites (Plasmodium spp.), Toxoplasma, and many other species of medical and veterinary importance its iconic representatives, the protistan phylum Apicomplexa has long been defined as a group composed entirely of parasites and pathogens. We present here a report of a beneficial apicomplexan: the mutualistic marine endosymbiont Nephromyces. For more than a century, the peculiar structural and developmental features of Nephromyces, and its unusual habitat, have thwarted characterization of the phylogenetic affinities of this eukaryotic microbe. Using short-subunit ribosomal DNA (SSU rDNA) sequences as key evidence, with sequence identity confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), we show that Nephromyces, originally classified as a chytrid fungus, is actually an apicomplexan. Inferences from rDNA data are further supported by the several apicomplexan-like structural features in Nephromyces, including especially the strong resemblance of Nephromyces infective stages to apicomplexan sporozoites. The striking emergence of the mutualistic Nephromyces from a quintessentially parasitic clade accentuates the promise of this organism, and the three-partner symbiosis of which it is a part, as a model for probing the factors underlying the evolution of mutualism, pathogenicity, and infectious disease.
