Preparation of yeast tRNA by phenol method

Summary

By purification on DEAE cellulose columns, small amounts of DNA, large molecular RNA, proteins, polysaccharides and other impurities were removed, and finally a mixture of various amino acid-specific tRNAs was obtained.

I. Materials and equipment

1) DEAE cellulose: Weigh 20 g of l.Ommol/g DEAE cellulose, soak it in 300 ml of 0.5mol/L sodium hydroxide for 1~2 h with stirring, pour off the supernatant and then rinse it in water until neutral.

2) Diethanolamine (TEA) solution: firstly, adjust to pH7.4 with concentrated HC1, and then dilute to lmol/L as storage solution.

3) 0.lmol/L TEA buffer (pH7.4)

4) 0.lmol/L sodium chloride with 0.lmoi./LTEA buffer (pH 7.4).

5)12mol/L sodium chloride containing 0.lmol/LTEA buffer, pH 7.4.

6)lmol/L sodium chloride containing 0.lmol/LTEA buffer, pH 7.4.

7) Ether.

8) Water-saturated phenol.

9) Ethanol.

10) Soap Clay

11) Electric stirrer.

12) Centrifuge.

13) Partial Collector.

14) UV Spectrophotometer.


II Methods of operation

1) 250 g of fresh baker's yeast, add 375 ml of distilled water and stir well to form a paste.

2) Add 500 ml of 90% phenol (to change the cell permeability and denaturation of protein), stirring electrically for lh, and place in refrigerator overnight.

3) Centrifuge at 4000r/min for 15 min, discard the supernatant, the lower layer is the phenol phase, carefully aspirate (avoid inhaling proteins), add 20 g of potassium acetate and 2L of ethanol per liter to precipitate the tRNA, and leave it at -20°C overnight.

4) Centrifuge at 4000r/nin for 15 min, discard the supernatant, wash the precipitate with 95% ethanol, and centrifuge at 4000r./min for 15 min.

5) The precipitate was washed again with ether and centrifuged at 4000r/min for 15 min.

6) Dissolve the precipitate in 25 ml of 0.1mol/LTEA buffer. Add 0.025 g of saponite, 1.5 g of sodium chloride, leave at 0°C for lh and centrifuge at 4000r/min for 15 min.

7) The supernatant was diluted 10-fold with 0.1mol/I.TEA buffer, and the sample was loaded onto a DEAE cellulose column equilibrated with 0.lmol/LTEA buffer containing 0.lmol/LNaCl. The column was washed with TEA containing 0.2mol/LNaCl until the OD260 of the effluent was <0.05. The sample was diluted 10 times with TEA buffer.

8) Elute with TEA containing 1mol/LMaCl, collect in portions, measure the OD260, and take the peak portion of the liquid.

9) Add 2 times volume of 95% ethanol, overnight at 20℃ (or 2 h).

10) centrifuge at 4000r/min for 15 min, discard the supernatant, and wash the precipitate with 67% ethanol, 95% ethanol, anhydrous ethanol and ether.

11) Centrifuge at 4000r/mim, dry the precipitate under vacuum, and electrophoresis for tRNA detection.
