We have found that the DNA extraction procedure of Metzenberg and Baitch (Neurospora Newsl. 28:20)/Stevens and Metzenberg (Neurospora Newsl. 29:27) while giving excellent yield and size of DNA is some ...
Preparation of fungi for DNA extraction typically involves growing cultures in liquid culture in Erlenmeyer flasks Roux bottles or even microfuge tubes (Cenis 1992 Nucl. Acids Res. 20:2380). Growing f ...
Most RNA isolation techniques currently in use have been developed for the processing of large quantities of material. These typically involve multiple phenol extractions (Reinert et al. 1981 Mol. Cel ...
We have developed a method for isolating high quality total RNA from N. crassa mycelia that reliably yields large quantities. It is possible to extract more than 50 minipreps at once. Procedures of RN ...
Molecular biology experiments often require preparation of small amounts of DNA from many samples. This abbreviated DNA isolation method yields an average of 0.6 micrograms of genomic DNA that is suit ...
Most methods of DNA preparation from fungi are time-consuming due to the need to first make protoplasts expensive for chemicals such as cesium chloride or suitable only for small scale preparations. W ...

IntroductionTransformation is the process of introducing foreign DNA (e.g plasmids BAC) into a bacterium. Bacterial cells into which foreign DNA can be transformed are called competent. Some bacteria ...
AbstractChIP-Chip stands for Chromatin Immunoprecipitation and chip in the sense of DNA microarray. It is a technique to determine the genome-wide binding sites of a DNA-binding protein. While the bas ...
