I can detect my protein but the encoding DNA sequence has stop codons within. Should I ignore the stop codons?

I constructed a synthetic DNA library (scFv, VH-VL orientation) with a 3' reporter and 8x histag. I cloned and expressed this gene following which I performed an ELISA. The ELISA results suggested...

Can I express protein of plant origin in E. coli strain (M15) using pET28a vector systems? Are M15 strains and pET vector systems compatible?

Are E.coli strains M15 and pET28a vector systems compatible? Can I over-express my protein which is of plant origin. Previously I was using BL21 DE3 strains. Was confused to use M15 strains for...

Flexibility of RNAseq?

When you use RNAseq I understand that it must follow certain conditions when you use it. One of them is the insertion of a polyA tail. The insertion of the polyA must include then...

What are the benefits exactly of synthetic intron (IVS) and internal ribosome entry site (IRES) on a plasmid?

Hello everybody! so I have a plasmid which has a synthetic intron (IVS) & an internal ribosome entry site (IRES), and I'm thinking to remove them as I'm cloning due to some matters related to...

How to quantify lncRNA/miRNA in ribosomal depleted RNA-seq?

I did some ribosomally depleted RNA-seq in rat brain. Does anyone have recommendations on how to quantify/compare small RNA expression between samples? I have used RNA STAR to map reads back to...

Does polysome profiling in 4mL tube instead of 12 mL needs a scale down in ultracentrifugation time ?

Hello everyone, I recently started several polysome profiling experiment and something bugs me out. Every protocols I found use 12mL tube. They load their lysate containing ribosomes attached to...

Does the usage of shuttle vectors gives a better result in eukaryotes or prokaryotes?

Shuttle vectors are used in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. But I want to know in which type of organisms do shuttle vectors gives a better result.
