The Ni-NTA spin columns provide purification of 6xHis-tagged proteins from small-scale expression cultures. Available in two formats--separately without reagents or as a complete kit--they can be used in experimental situations requiring small-scale expression, functional screening, and rapid purification of engineered and recombinant proteins. Each can purify up to 100 fg of 6xHis tagged protein under native or denaturing conditions. According to the manufacturer, this procedure allows 12 mini
The Rodent Wars: Is a Rat Just a Big Mouse?

Sometimes it seems as if genome projects are cropping up everywhere.1 But until costs come down, limited resources are being largely concentrated into what Joseph Nadeau, professor of genetics at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, calls "the genome seven," an apples-and-oranges list of viruses, bacteria, fungi, Arabidopsis thaliana, Drosophila melanogaster, Caenorhabditis elegans, and mouse, with Homo sapiens in its own category.2 Researchers widely acknowledge that in the rod

LYVE-1 immunohistochemistry demonstrates the presence of lymphatic vessels in connective tissue, but not near islets of Langerhans. B: Rip1Tag2 mice were crossed with mice which overexpress VEGF-C in pancreatic b-cells. C: An insulinoma cell breaks through a lymphatic vessel. D: An intralymphatic tumor cell mass forms. E: In a lymph node, lymphocytes (L) are surrounded by tumor cells (T). F: Immunof
