Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of molecular biology, and in particular to the preparation and application of a kit for efficiently extracting yeast genomic DNA. Background Art

[0002] Yeast is a single-cell eukaryotic organism. Because of its clear genetic background, easy operation, and rapid growth, it is often used as a eukaryotic cell model for genetics and cytology to study the mechanisms of various life activities of eukaryotic cells. In addition, yeast is also widely used in genetic engineering and food production. Therefore, in order to better study the genetic information of yeast, extracting its genome for the detection of target genes is an important step. However, because the yeast cell wall is tough and thick and rich in polysaccharides, pigments, nucleases and other substances, the current yeast genome extraction methods and related products have problems such as high cost, long time consumption, and unsatisfactory results. Therefore, effectively breaking the yeast cell wall is the key to successfully extracting the yeast genome.

[0003] Existing cell wall breaking methods include liquid nitrogen freeze-thaw, -70℃ freeze-thaw, enzyme digestion, ultrasonic disruption, high salt solution, urea buffer treatment, etc., and methods for extracting and purifying genomic DNA include phenol chloroform extraction, SDS method, centrifugal column method, etc. These methods have their own advantages and disadvantages in terms of efficiency, purity, cost and ease of operation, such as long processing time, relatively high cost, and the need to use highly toxic chemical reagents. For example, Chinese patent CN116769771A discloses a method for preparing yeast genomic DNA templates, which uses liquid nitrogen and an ultrasonic device to repeatedly freeze and thaw samples to obtain yeast genomic DNA. This invention requires the use of liquid nitrogen and an ultrasonic device during the preparation process, which may involve high implementation costs. At the same time, the genomic DNA obtained can only be tested by PCR, and it cannot be ensured that the quality of the extracted genomic DNA template can meet the requirements of applications such as qPCR. Chinese patent CN113265397A discloses a cell lysis solution, a kit and a method for extracting yeast genomes. Although the kit can extract genomes with a higher yield and avoid the use of toxic reagents such as chloroform, the kit contains lysozyme and may require special storage conditions, which will increase the storage cost and usage complexity of the user.
