    What is the best DNA extraction kits for RNAlater preserved cattle tissue

    Hi, All
    Could anyone please tel me ifni can DNA extraction kits to extract gDNA from RNAlater preserved cattle skin tissue, i am conducting a PhD research on polymorphism and mRNA expression levels of HSP 70 and 90 in Nigerian and Indian cattle. i am about to commence gDNA extraction for polymorphism study and genotyping of HSP 70 and 90 genes from the samples next week. I came to India with the samples from Nigeria. I took the samples between January- early march, 2017. i stored the samples in refrigerator before my travelling, i transported the sample with ice park to create a refrigerated environment for the sample. I intend doing mRNA expression study on the samples after completion of polymorphism study of the genes. i take time to give these preamble so that whoever that want to guide me will have detail information to work with. So kindly guide me on the use of extraction kits as phenol-chlorofom assay is not available in the lab that is hosting me. looking forward for your kind suggestions.
    Thank you

    I have not tried it,but I assume any spin column kit will work just fine. E.g. Qiagen DNeasy etc.
    Just remove as much of the RNAlater ( rinse the pieces in nuclease free water?) as possible and avoid overloading the kits. Perhaps start with half of the suggested tissue amount?

        Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
        by SEQadmin2



        Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

        Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
        by SEQadmin2



        Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

        There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...

        Reply to Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing

        Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.
