Copy And Paste

Abstract Analogous to a photocopier, we developed a DNA microarray copy technique and were able to copy patterned original DNA microarrays. With this process the appearance of the copied DNA microarray can also be altered compared to the original by producing copies of different resolutions. As a homage to the very first photocopy made by Chester Charlson and Otto Kornei, we performed a lookalike DNA microarray copy exactly 80 years later. Those copies were also used for label-free real-time kinetic binding assays of apo-dCas9 to double stranded DNA and of thrombin to single stranded DNA. Since each DNA microarray copy was made with only 5 µl of spPCR mix, the whole process is cost-efficient. Hence, our DNA microarray copier has a great potential for becoming a standard lab tool.

Trivalent Cations

In vitro collapse of DNA by trivalent cations like spermidine produces torus (donut) shaped DNA structures thought to have a DNA organization similar to certain double stranded DNA bacteriophage and viruses. This has prompted our studies of these structures using freeze-etch low Pt-C metal (9Å) replica TEM. With a variety of DNAs the TEM and biochemical data support a circumferential DNA winding model for hydrated DNA torus organization. Since toruses are almost invariably oriented nearly horizontal to the ice surface one of the most accessible parameters of a torus population is annulus (ring) thickness. We have tabulated this parameter for populations of both nicked, circular (Fig. 1: n=63) and linear (n=40: data not shown) ϕX-174 DNA toruses. In both cases, as can be noted in Fig. 1, there appears to be a compact grouping of toruses possessing smaller dimensions separated from a dispersed population possessing considerably larger dimensions.

A method for determining long nucleotide sequences of double-stranded DNA is being developed. It involves (a) the synchronous digestion of the DNA from the 3' ends with EL coli exonuclease III (Exo III) followed by (b) resynthesis with labeled nucleotides and DNA polymerase. A crucial factor in the success of this method is the degree to which the enzyme digestion proceeds synchronously under proper conditions of incubation (step a). Dark field EM is used to obtain accurate measurements on the lengths and distribution of the DNA molecules before and after digestion with Exo III, while gel electrophoresis is used in parallel to obtain a mean length for these molecules. It is the measurements on a large enough sample of individual molecules by EM that provides the information on how synchronously the digestion proceeds. For length measurements, the DNA molecules were picked up on 20-30 Å thick carbon-aluminum films, using the aqueous Kleinschmidt technique and stained with 7.5 x 10-5M uranyl acetate in 90% ethanol for 3 minutes.

Certain double stranded DNA bacteriophage and viruses are thought to have their DNA organized into large torus shaped structures. Morphologically, these poorly understood biological DNA tertiary structures resemble spermidine-condensed DNA complexes formed in vitro in the total absence of other macromolecules normally synthesized by the pathogens for the purpose of their own DNA packaging. Therefore, we have studied the tertiary structure of these self-assembling torus shaped spermidine- DNA complexes in a series of reports. Using freeze-etch, low Pt-C metal (10-15Å) replicas, we have visualized the microscopic DNA organization of both calf Thymus( CT) and linear 0X-174 RFII DNA toruses. In these structures DNA is circumferentially wound, continuously, around the torus into a semi-crystalline, hexagonal packed array of parallel DNA helix sections.
