It is a long-term goal for biomedical researchers to develop efficient and reliable methods to make accurate and targeted changes in the genome of living cells. In recent years, a new tool based on bacterial CRISPR-associated protein-9 nuclease (Cas9) from Streptococcus pyogenes has aroused ...
Targets and Release Using Nuclease (CUT&RUN) experimental technology is an emerging chromatin analysis method for studying protein-DNA interactions. It uses antibodies to specifically label target proteins, and then uses nucleases bound to antibodies (such as pAG-MNase) to cut DNA fragments that ...
The DNA of apoptotic cells is cut into fragments of about 200 base pairs under the action of caspase-activated nuclease (CAD), forming DNA ladders. By detecting DNA fragmentation during apoptosis, the degree of apoptosis can be evaluated.
