Isolating Nucleic Acids from Yeast
Description
One of the many advantages to using yeast as a model system is that large quantities of biomacromolecules, including nucleic acids (DNA and RNA), can be purified from the cultured cells.
This video will address the steps required to carry out nucleic acid extraction. We will begin by briefly outlining the growth and harvest, and lysis of ...

Transcript
Today we will be showing you how to purify nucleic acids from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, also known as baker’s yeast. Nucleic acids can include DNA or RNA. This video will discuss the isolation of these molecules from yeast cells by phase separation and chromatography.
Though many differ...
