Introduction

MagZol Reagent is a reagent system for the isolation of total RNA from cells and tissues. The reagent, a single-phase solution consisting of phenol and guanidine isothiocyanate, is modification of the single-step RNA isolation method developed by Chomczynski and Sacchi. The sample is homogenized and lysed in MagZol Reagent which maintains the integrity of the RNA, while disrupting and denaturing endogenous RNases and other cellular components. Extraction of the lysate with chloroform further denatures proteins and separates the mixture into an organic and an aqueous phase. RNA remains exclusively in the aqueous phase, and is subsequently recovered by isopropanol.

This method is suitable for small quantities of tissue (<100mg) and cells (<5 X10⁶), and large quantities of tissue (up to 1g) and cells (<10⁸), of human, animal, plant, or bacterial origin. The simplicity of the MagZol Reagent method allows simultaneous processing of a large number of samples. The entire procedure can be completed in one hour. Total RNA prepared in this manner can be used for Northern blot analysis, dot blot hybridization, poly(A) + selection, in vitro translation, RNase protection assay, and molecular cloning. For use in amplification by thermal cycling, treatment of the isolated RNA with RNase-free DNase I is recommended when the two amplimers lie within a single exon.

Advantages

• Flexible – sample amount can be adjusted according to the demand
• Cost performance -the most economical nucleic acid extraction technology

Storage and Stability

MagZol Reagent should be stored at 2-8°C upon arrival and is stable for at least 24 months under the condition. However, short-term storage (up to 12 weeks) at room temperature (15-25°C) does not affect its performance.

Biotin-PEG12-DBCO is a biotinylating reagent comprised of DBCO, a click chemistry handle that is frequently used to conjugate with azides on target molecules, and biotin, which is useful for affinity-based applications such as pull-down assays or for ligating with streptavidin proteins. The PEG12 imparts the hydrophilicity of the compound. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries.

GATA3 is a transcription factor important in cell proliferation, development, and differentiation. GATA3 is mostly observed in breast and urothelial carcinomas, and rarely present in other cancers such as endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma. Among the breast carcinomas, GATA3 has a lower expression in luminal B subtype breast carcinoma. Studies have found GATA3 expression to be associated with ER (estrogen receptor), PR (progesterone receptor), and Her2 in breast cancer cases. Urothelial carcinomas stain positively for GATA3 in invasive or high grade tumors, therefore Anti-GATA3 is useful for carcinoma diagnosis when breast and bladder are plausible.
