Molecular and Cellular Biology Protocol Links

Below are several links to a small sampling of annotated molecular biology-oriented websites. If you are not satisfied with these sites, a simple Google search will reveal many more options that may be more useful for you. I chose these for their breadth and simple organization scheme.

These sites will be useful for helping you get a feel for a particular protocol or to better understand what is involved or the type of results you can expect. Ultimatley, however, I would like you to use print or journal sources for any protocol references you may need.

Again, if you find a particularly useful site, please let me so that I can add them to this page.

 

Below are various links to sites that maintain collections of protocols.

Analytical Biochemistry (http://www.academicpress.com/www/journal/ab/abli.htm) This site contains an annotated list of molecular and cell biology on-line resources.

Mark Strom's Molecular Biology Protocols (http://research.nwfsc.noaa.gov/protocols.html) The US US Dept Commerce/NOAA/NMFS/NWFSC has a site that providesan excellent collection of molecular biology protocols includes useful Methods Forum where you can submit tips, techniques, questions, and comments; a Bioinformatics section; and a list of on-line journals. The methods are nicely organized into sections, including a section on computer analysis of data. There are numerous methods on DNA purification, transformation, library preparation, sequencing, ogligonucleotides, PCR, and electrophoresis. Additional resources can be found here containing links to biotech companies, on-line tutorials and other useful links (http://micro.nwfsc.noaa.gov/protocols/resources.html).

Brendan Babb's Collection of Protocols and Recipes (http://www.uct.ac.za/depts/mmi/bbhelp/int.html) This is a comprehensive collection of bacterial, protein, and molecular biology techniques, recipes, and protocols. In addition to the large collection of bacterial methods, DNA and RNA protocols, protein and PCR techniques, this site hosts a very useful set of recipes for general and specific laboratory solutions and buffers. These are arranged in alphabetical order from acrylamide to zinc sulfate.

Protocols Online. (http://www.protocol-online.org/prot/) Protocol Online is a database of research protocols in a variety of life science fields. It contains user submitted protocols as well as links to web protocols hosted by worldwide research labs, biotech companies, personal web sites. The data is stored in a MySql relational database. Protocol Online also hosts discipline specific discussion forums and mailing lists, and provides a free PubMed search and alerting service. This site was created and is maintained by Long-Cheng Li, who created the original Protocol Online web site in 1989. In order to better serve the research community, any comments and suggestions that can help improve this site are welcomed. The protocols tend to be rather specific but you may get lucky. You can find molecular biology specific protocols by clicking here.( http://www.protocol-online.org/prot/Molecular_Biology/).

Paramecium Specific Protocols

You can find a brief overview of Paramecium and several protocols you might find useful at this site. It contains additional material more suited for education butthere are alos research protocols as well.
