A rapid and efficient method to purify λgt11 DNA is described. This technique involves precipitation of intact bacteriophage particles with ammonium sulfate, followed by phage lysis with sodium dodecyl sulfate, proteinase K, and alkaline treatment. The quality of DNA for subsequent restriction analysis, infectivity, subcloning, and radiolabeling is comparable to that isolated by cesium chloride banding or ion exchange chromatography. The yield of the phage DNA is, however, two to eight times higher than that obtained by other conventional methods of λgt11 purification. Furthermore the time required to process the bacteriophage lysate is approximately 2 h and therefore more rapid than other currently used methods. © 1988.

Abstract
A rapid and efficient method to purify λgt11 DNA is described. This technique involves precipitation of intact bacteriophage particles with ammonium sulfate, followed by phage lysis with sodium dodecyl sulfate, proteinase K, and alkaline treatment. The quality of DNA for subsequent restriction analysis, infectivity, subcloning, and radiolabeling is comparable to that isolated by cesium chloride banding or ion exchange chromatography. The yield of the phage DNA is, however, two to eight times higher than that obtained by other conventional methods of λgt11 purification. Furthermore the time required to process the bacteriophage lysate is approximately 2 h and therefore more rapid than other currently used methods. © 1988.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
