Figure 14-Multiple binding sites per arm Gel. When annealed with MS2T21, less NClaw 5S and NClaw 4S remains as free claws (unbound claws). Those lanes also have material left in the wells that did not travel through the gel, signifying polymerization.

July 16 2015: TClaw Synthesis and polymerization Gel

Figure 15-TClaw Synthesis and polymerization Gel
Figure 15-TClaw Synthesis and polymerization Gel. Figure 15 shows a gel image demonstrating a gel shift Plasmids to TClaw, indicating a conformational change. Nonetheless, there is polymerization indicating that the Tethers are causing the claws to aggregate together. This is not favorable for capsid binding.

July 30 2015: TClaw Synthesis and polymerization Gel

Figure 16-TClaw synthesis less polymerization Gel
Figure 16-TClaw synthesis less polymerization Gel. Figure 16 shows gel where TClaws were made using different annealing protocol (See Approach). TClaws show much less polymerization here, compared to Figure 15, indicating that tethers might be binding to desired locations.

August 12 2015: Post SYBR stain

Figure 17-TClaw and Hex Strands SYBR stain Gel
Figure 17-TClaw and Hex Strands SYBR stain Gel. Figure 17 Shows an image of the same TClaw made in figure 16, this time with an of excess HEX strand (Complementary to tether) and excess tether.

Date: 08.12.15; Voltage: 70 Volts/Hour; Length of Run: 4 H 12M Concentration of Sample: 18.18nanoM: Blunt T Claw; 19.05nanoM Sticky T Claw; 0.2uM Tether; 4.5uMHex Name of each sample:

  • Blunt T31 Claw+ Hex
  • Sticky T31 Claw + Hex
  • Blunt T40 Claw + Hex
  • Sticky T40 Claw + Hex
  • Blunt T 49 Claw + Hex
  • Sticky T49 Claw +Hex
  • Blunt NClaw (No tether) + Hex
  • Sticky NClaw (No tether) + Hex
  • 1KB

Quantity of DNA in each sample: 0.05 picomoles Claw; 0.25 picomoles of Tether; 9 picomoles Hex

Figure 18: Pre-SYBR staining using Fluorescent Hex Strand

Figure 18-TClaw and Hex Pre-Sybr Gel
Figure 18-TClaw and Hex Pre-Sybr Gel. Figure 18 shows same gel as Figure 17 before staining with SYBR. HEX strands and tethers are visible. Lanes 1-4 (TClaw) have less tethers present in the product, when compared to lanes 5-6 (NClaw), potentially because tethers are binding to the claw, and just excess tether can be seen in lanes 1-4.

Date: 08.31.15; Voltage: 70 Volts/Hour; Length of Run: 4 H 0M. Concentration of Sample: 18.18nanoM: Blunt T Claw; 19.05nanoM Sticky T Claw; 0.2uM Tether; 0.2uM CY3 Name of each sample:

  1. Blunt T31 Claw+ Hex
  2. Sticky T31 Claw + Hex

  4. Sticky T40 Claw + Hex

  6. Sticky T49 Claw +Hex
  7. Blunt NClaw (No tether) + Hex
  8. Sticky NClaw (No tether) + Hex
  9. 1KB

Quantity of DNA in each sample: 0.120 picomoles Claw; 3 picomoles of Tether; 10.8 picomoles Cy3

Figure 18: Post SYBR stain

Figure 18-TClaw and CY3 Sybr Stain Gel
Figure 18-TClaw and CY3 Sybr Stain Gel. Figure 18 shows TClaw with excess tethers and excess CY3 strand.

Figure 19: Pre-SYBR image using CY3 Fluorescent Strand

Figure 19-TClaw and CY3 pre-Sybr Gel
Figure 19-TClaw and CY3 pre-Sybr Gel. Figure 19 shows the same gel image as Figure 18 before staining with Sybr. CY3 strand has a lower LOD than the HEX strand used in the previous trials. In this figure we can clearly see that CY3 is binding to tether, and tether is binding to claw. Little polymerization indicates that there is less aggregation between the claws.
