Underlined nucleotides are the binding site. IRDye 700 oligonucleotides are supplied as 25 µL of 50 nM (or 50 fmol/µL) double-stranded DNA.
STAT3 is a transcription factor that is activated by phosphorylation of tyrosine 705 and in response to particular ligands. For this reason, it is a common oligonucleotide used in EMSA to assess certain types of protein binding.
You should establish conditions of the binding reaction for each protein-DNA pair. For IRDye 700 STAT3 oligonucleotide, the following binding reaction is a good starting point:
| Reaction | µL |
|---|---|
| 10X Binding Buffer (100 mM Tris, 500 mM KCI, 10 mM DTT; pH 7.5) | 2 |
| Poly (dl•dC) 1 µg/µL in 10 mM Tris, 1 mM EDTA; pH 7.5 | 1 |
| 25 mM DTT/2.5% Tween® 20 | 2 |
| 1% NP-40 | 1 |
| 100 mM MgCl2 | 1 |
| Water | 11 |
| IRDye 700 STAT3 | 1 |
| U937 (IF Nα treated) nuclear extract (positive control) (5 µg/µL) | 1 |
| Total | 20 |
After the addition of the DNA to the protein-buffer mix, reactions are incubated to allow protein binding to DNA. A typical incubation condition is 20-30 minutes at room temperature.
Since IRDye infrared dyes are somewhat sensitive to light, it is best to keep binding reactions in the dark during incubation periods (e.g., put the tubes into a drawer or simply cover the rack containing tubes with aluminum foil). After the incubation period, 10X Orange Loading Dye (P/N 927-10100) is added to the binding reaction for electrophoresis.
将 DNA 添加到蛋白质缓冲液混合物中后，孵育反应物以使蛋白质与 DNA 结合。 典型的孵育条件是室温下 20-30 分钟。
由于 IRDye 红外染料对光有些敏感，因此最好在孵育期间将结合反应保持在黑暗中（例如，将试管放入抽屉或简单地用铝箔盖住装有试管的架子）。 孵育期后，将 10X Orange Loading Dye (P/N 927-10100) 添加到结合反应中进行电泳。
