Abstract:
We have made the first apparatus for fluorescent detection, monitoring the hybridization process of fluorescently labeled DNA fragments in a polyacrylamide gel. Using this, the analysis on the thermal denaturation/reassociation process of DNA fragments in the gel was employed, for improving the performance of In-Gel Competitive Reassociation (IGCR) technique, one of genome subtraction methods. We showed that Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) in the gel occurred by positioning two fluorescent dyes at 3' and 5' ends of DNA fragments. The characterization of fluorescence-labelled fragments in gel and the changes of their fluorescence intensity will be reported.

DNA Agarose Gel Electrophoresis
Gel extraction follows five major steps: running gel electrophoresis to separate fragments, isolating the individual bands, extracting DNA from those bands, and removing the dye and salts from the extracted mixture to obtain pure DNA.
In cloning experiments, both the insert and vector DNA...
Southern Blot
Denatured DNA fragments must be transferred onto a carrier membrane from the gel to make it accessible to a probe - a small ssDNA fragment complementary to the target DNA...
SDS-PAGE
A variation of gel electrophoresis, termed polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), is commonly used for separating proteins according to their molecular size by passing them through a polyacrylamide gel. Because of the varying charges associated with amino acid side chains, PAGE can be used to separate intact proteins...
Two-dimensional Gel Electrophoresis
The first dimension separation uses the isoelectric focusing or IEF technique performed on immobilized pH gradient (IPG) strips that separate proteins according to their isoelectric points.
