    TaKaRa proteinase k
    RNase protection assay of siRNA in lipoplexes and LNPs diluted with HBSS. Notes: After addition of RNase to samples, mixtures were incubated at 37°C for 1 h (siRNA: 1.25 µM). The reaction was terminated by the addition of 5 µL proteinase K. Almost 100% of the siRNA remained in LNPs, whereas 80% of the siRNA remained in lipoplexes. The student’s t -test was performed. * P

The A420 values from spectrophotometric measurement at 420 nm reflect the levels of hemoglobin released from sheep erythrocytes. The A420 value of the supernatant from the sheep erythrocytes in 1 mL 5% erythrocyte suspension lysed by distilled water was set at 100% (total hemolysis). rOmpL1, a non-hemolytic recombinant porin from L. interrogans strain Lai, was the negative control (background hemolysis). Relative hemolytic activity of each of the rL-hemolysin proteins was defined as the percentage (%, A420) compared to total hemolysis. * P

    HQ formation during transcription of linear dsDNA that contained a G-core motif from the NRAS gene on the non-template strand. ( A, B ) HQ detection by DMS footprinting in DNA that carried (A) four or (B) three and two G-tracts. DNA was labeled at the 5′-end of the non-template strand with a FAM (asterisk), then subjected either to heat denaturation/renaturation (H) or transcription (T) with ATP and GTP (AG) or all four NTPs (NTP) and followed by RNase A and protease K digestion.

( C ) HQ detection by native gel electrophoresis. DNA carrying four (top), three (middle) or two (bottom) G-tracts was heated or transcribed with either GTP or dzGTP and the other three NTPs as in (A, B).

    Topology of the UL56 protein. HSV-2-infected cells (a), virions (b), and UL56-expressing cells (c) were treated with proteinase K in either the presence (+) or the absence (−) of 1% Triton X-100. The samples were then separated by SDS-PAGE and analyzed by Western blotting with anti-UL56 serum. Positions of molecular mass markers (in kilodaltons) are indicated on the left.

    Article Snippet: The chemical shift perturbations in a titration of labeled RPA32C with SMARCAL17–32 were analyzed using a weighted average of the change in chemical shift (Δδ) upon binding based on the net perturbations in both the 1 H and 15 N dimensions calculated using the standard equation (eq ): 1 For in situ proteolysis experiments, 1 μL of Proteinase K (Clontech) dissolved at a ratio of 1/100 (w/v) was added to NMR samples and SOFAST-HMQC spectra were collected at 10 min intervals.
