When added into egg extracts of Xenopus laevis, they caused nuclei of mouse liver to undergo apoptotic changes. Chromatin condensation, margination and DNA ladder were observed. After incubating isolated mitochondria in some hypotonic solutions, and centrifuging these mixtures at high speed, we got mitochondrial supernatants. It was found that in the absence of cytosolic factor, the supernatant alone was able to induce apoptotic changes in nuclei. The effective components were partly of protein. DNA fragmentation was partly inhibited by caspase inhibitors AC-DEVD-CHO and AC- YVADCHO. Meanwhile, caspase inhibitors fully blocked chromatin condensation. Primary characterization of the nuclear endonuclease(s) induced by mitochondrial supernatants was also conducted. It was found that this endonuclease is different from endonuclease G, cytochrome c-induced nuclease, or Ca2+-activated endonuclease.展开更多

The protocol includes collection of saliva in sterile specimen tubes, followed by the cell lysis. After formation of cell lysate, proteins wereextracted by phenol chloroform treatment for purification of DNA. The purified DNA was precipitated by adding equal volume of isopropanol to the treated supernatant. After isolation DNA pellet was washed with 70% ethanol, air-dried and was suspended in 30 pL of double distilled water. Best quality of DNA was extracted from the saliva samples and the PCR product was amplified for hyper-variable regions (HVI& HV2) of the mitochondrial DNA. The genes were cleaned with GeneAll gel elution kit (Gel SV) (Cat. No. 102-10) and sequenced accordingly. The DNA isolation protocol presented here is recommended for the isolation, best quality and yield of DNA from the human saliva.展开更多
