c4.0.b Folding

Stock oligos

Pre-working stocks

  • Mix 2.5 μL of each 200 μM stock oligo. 2.5μL biotinylated oligos + 7.5μL water go into each pre-working stock.
pre-working stock desc oligo tube labels total # of oligos
c4.0.4b barrel oligos @ outside aptamers -aptamers +biotin c4.0.4.1b-c4.0.4.4b 4
c4.0.6b barrel oligos @ inside aptamers -aptamers +biotin c4.0.6.1b-c4.0.6.4b 4


Make c4.0.b working stocks

Final concentration of each oligo in working stocks is 250 nM.

c4.0.b Folding Experiment

Reagents

  • 9 μL p7308 scaffold = (10 nM)/(44 nM) * 40 μL
  • 16 μL oligos (3.2.A) = (100 nM)/(250 nM) * 40 μL
  • 4 μL 10x folding buffer (500 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 500 mM NaCl, 100 mM MgCl2)
  • 11 μL dH2O
  • total volume: 40 μL


Streptavidin-biotin binding experiments, continued

  • goal: show that streptavidin and biotin are binding and can be imaged with PAGE
    • show with both biotinylated oligos and biotinylated DNA nanostructures
