Abstract

We have used a recombinant bacteriophage that expresses the DNA-binding domain of C/EBP to optimize conditions for a screening technique that may facilitate the cloning of genes that encode sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins. The method relies on the expression of cDNA inserts in bacteriophage lambda gt11. Fusion protein adsorbed onto nitrocellulose filters is probed with radioactive, double-stranded DNA as a ligand. Two procedures greatly increase the level of binding between ligand and recombinant fusion protein. First, nitrocellulose filters are processed through a denaturation/renaturation regimen using 6 M guanidine hydrochloride. Second, synthetic DNA corresponding to the specific binding site is catenated extensively using DNA ligase. The combination of these procedures leads to remarkably strong detection signals. Specific DNA-binding signals can be detected on duplicate filters, and filters can be washed and reused by repeating the cycle of denaturation/renaturation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
