A simple multi-cloning strategy for gene expression and subcellular localization in Mycobacteria.

A streamlined cloning platform for expressing a gene of interest either alone or fused to a monomeric fluorescent protein under the control of two promoters of choice is described, providing a fast and flexible cloning strategy for protein expression and subcellular localization analyses in mycobacteria.

Optimized Hot Phenol-Based RNA Extraction from Mycobacteria: A Robust Approach for Reliable Gene Expression Analysis.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) remains a major global health threat, underscoring the need for reliable transcriptomic studies to understand its biology and drug resistance mechanisms. Such analyses depend on obtaining high-quality, high-yield RNA. Although several RNA extraction methods are available, many require e...

Effect of nucleic acid extraction methodology and PCR chemistry on the detection of 'Candidatus Phytoplasma pruni' in sweet cherry.

Early and accurate detection of 'Candidatus Phytoplasma pruni' is essential for the control of X-disease in Prunus species, but this is made difficult by pathogen biology and the ability to consistently recover nucleic acids, both of which increase the likelihood of false negatives. Here we examined the latter, using h...

AGROtools: A comprehensive modular cloning toolset for Agrobacterium strain engineering

Agrobacterium-mediated transformation is a cornerstone of plant genetic engineering, yet many crops remain recalcitrant to transformation and its efficiency is highly species- and genotype-dependent. The limited diversity of disarmed agrobacterial strains available for biotechnology, and the technically challenging wor...

A protocol for sequential isolation, purification, and collection of Luticola nematophagus eggs to obtain high-quality genomic DNA

ABSTRACT Conventional strategies for obtaining planarian tissue for genomic DNA extraction rely on diet-based rearing or amputation-induced regeneration. These approaches are inapplicable to soil-dwelling flatworms that predominantly reproduce by egg-laying and lack regenerative capacity, such as the recently discovere...
