General description

The Nuclei EZ Prep Kit was developed for the rapid isolation of nuclei from mammalian cells. The kit provides a high yield of nuclei from commonly used cell types.

Application

Suitable as a source of nuclear components, to produce nuclei for in vitro apoptosis assays, and for functional studies.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The protocol provides a high yield of nuclei from commonly used mammalian cells, including both adherent (e.g., HEK293 and COS7) and non-adherent (e.g., Jurkat and HFN7.1) cell lines and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). The preparations are suitable for many cell biology applications, e.g., as a source of nuclear components such as chromatin, genomic DNA, histones and nuclear RNA/RNP, produces nuclei for in vitro apoptosis assays, and functional studies such as examination of the transcriptional status of cells.

Other Notes

All procedures should be carried out on ice or 2-8°C.

  1. Which document(s) contains shelf-life or expiration date information for a given product?

    If available for a given product, the recommended re-test date or the expiration date can be found on the Certificate of Analysis.

  2. How do I get lot-specific information or a Certificate of Analysis?

    The lot specific COA document can be found by entering the lot number above under the "Documents" section.

  3. Can Product NUC101, Nuclei Isolation Kit, be used to capture soluble nuclear proteins?

    The kit was originally designed to produce nuclei that are competent for transcription run-on/run-off assays to measure transcription from pre-engaged polymerase complexes on the nuclear DNA. It was not designed for the separation or isolation of soluble nuclear proteins. The researcher might be advised to try the NXTRACT nuclear extraction kit, which allows for the isolation of "intact" nuclei from other cellular components before the lysis of the nuclear membrane.

  4. Can I use Product NUC101, Nuclei Isolation Kit, on frozen cells?

    It is likely that the freezing and thawing processes will damage many of the cells and nuclei, which could lead to loss of nuclear components and/or contamination of the nuclei with cytoplasmic or other cellular components.

  5. Should I use trypsin to harvest my adherent cells before using Product NUC101, Nuclei Isolation Kit?

    In general, this is not advised. We have never tried detaching the cells first with trypsin. We would not recommend it, because residual trypsin could clip nuclear proteins and cause problems in downstream applications.

  6. How do I find price and availability?
