Abstract:
Several molecular techniques require high quality RNA, completely free of DNA. Standard methods to isolate total RNA from Streptomyces spp. are based on the application of a 'Modified Kirby Mix' [Practical Streptomyces Genetics. The John Innes Foundation, Norwich, pp. 613]. Here we present an alternative procedure using Triton X-100 and EDTA for the isolation of total RNA from Streptomyces.
