(二)美國NIGHTSEA轉(zhuǎn)基因生物觀測利器的應用之——樣本預篩選和輔助解剖
熒光是細胞生物學、神經(jīng)生物學等多個研究領(lǐng)域中廣泛使用的工具。nightsea的DFP-1, BLS2和SFA-RB可以用于樣本的預篩選、輔助解剖等,下面列舉幾個實例:
1. 熒光蛋白標記的工程病毒載體在神經(jīng)元功能研究中應用十分廣泛,常通過顱內(nèi)注射研究特定腦區(qū)的功能。在此中,常需要對病毒表達區(qū)域進行快速解剖用于特定的生化分析。為了提高快速解剖定位度,研究人員選用nightsea的BLS2 Bluestar手電筒觀測系列,通過配合nightsea濾光眼鏡準確定位注射表達了熒光蛋白的伏核區(qū)(文獻– Xuan Li and Marina E. Wolf, 2011. Visualization of virus-infected brain regions using a GFP-illuminating flashlight enables accurate and rapid dissection for biochemical analysis. J. of Neuroscience Methods, Vol. 201, Issue 1, pp. 177-179. )
EGFP標記的慢病毒載體注射進小鼠大腦區(qū)域(Marina Wolf, Rosalind Franklin University)
2. 研究者從小鼠大腦中提取GFP標記的背紋體。這項困難的工作因有了NIGHTSEA的DFP-1或BLS2(手電筒和眼鏡組合)而變得簡單:很容易看到大腦中的目標區(qū)域,讓解剖更準確、。

3. 用DFP-1雙熒光蛋白手電筒,BLS2單熒光蛋白手電筒,或SFA-RB體視顯微鏡熒光適配器,可以快速檢測樣本是否成功染色(Alexa Fluor 488 Phalloidin標記),如下圖:

4.用SFA-RB體視顯微鏡熒光適配器以斑馬魚為模型,觀測不同有害化學物(醫(yī)藥、***、食品添加劑等)對大腦發(fā)育的影響。觀測圖片如下:

5. 熒光是珊瑚采集研究的重要工具?,F(xiàn)在,可以用經(jīng)濟又實惠的SFA-RB體視顯微鏡熒光適配器安裝到體視顯微鏡上檢測珊瑚。

6. 用于結(jié)核分枝桿菌重組株的篩選
在結(jié)核分枝桿菌中成功構(gòu)建了同源重組系統(tǒng),利用該系統(tǒng)構(gòu)建了rv1364c、pstP跨膜區(qū)、pstP胞外區(qū)三個突變株,得到雙交換突變株的效率為25%-62.5%,從雙交換突變株得到無痕缺失突變株的效率為100%。通過gfp作為熒光標記基因,利用NightSea BlueStar藍光手電筒和濾光眼鏡,可以對平板上的基因缺失株菌落直接進行快速判定。
采用nightsea BLS2 BlueStar 藍色手電筒和濾光鏡對平板上的結(jié)核分枝桿菌綠色熒光蛋白菌落進行快速鑒定。該方法可以從幾百個菌落中瞬間鎖定陽性克隆。平板上的菌落照片拍攝用單反相機加載購自nightsea公司的濾光片實現(xiàn)。
熒光是細胞生物學、神經(jīng)生物學等領(lǐng)域中廣泛使用的工具。美國nightsea致力于研究和開發(fā)熒光觀測裝備,其產(chǎn)品系列有DFP-1雙熒光蛋白手電筒系列,BLS2單熒光蛋白手電筒系列,SFA-RB體視顯微鏡熒光適配器等。
DFP-1 Dual Fluorescent Protein Flashlight 雙熒光蛋白手電筒系列
DFP-1雙熒光蛋白手電筒,有兩個可轉(zhuǎn)換的高強度LED,可激發(fā)高強度光源。目前,綠色熒光(GFP、EGFP、fluorescein等)和紅色熒光(DsREed,TdTomato等)是常用的類型,nightsea常規(guī)的DFP-1雙熒光蛋白手電筒是激發(fā)藍光和綠光,再分別使用黃色濾光鏡和紅色濾光鏡,就可以分別檢測綠色熒光蛋白(GFP、EGFP、fluorescein等)和紅色熒光蛋白(DsREed,TdTomato等)了。
標準的DFP-1雙熒光蛋白觀測鏡,只有RB-Royal Blue和GR-Green兩種熒光激發(fā)裝置,也就是說標準的DFP-1只能用于觀測綠色熒光蛋白和紅色熒光蛋白。
現(xiàn)在,您可以選擇以下任何兩種熒光裝置,組裝成自己專屬的雙熒光蛋白手電筒。
