- Agarose-Formaldehyde Electrophoresis (Dr. Simon Dawson, Department of Biochemistry, University of Nottingham Medical School)
RNA electrophoresis under denaturing conditions in 2.2M formaldehyde is performed according to Maniatis et al., (1982) using the MOPS buffer system. RNA under these conditions is fully denatured and migrates according to the log10 of its molecular weight.

The overall quality of an RNA preparation may be assessed by electrophoresis on a denaturing agarose gel; this will also give some information about RNA yield. A denaturing gel system is suggested because most RNA forms extensive secondary structure via intramolecular base pairing, and this prevents it from migrating strictly according to its size.

Non-denaturing agarose gel electrophoresis is good for checking RNA quality. This protocol is highly recommended for this purpose.

Denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of RNA
(Beverly Faulkner-Jones)
Polyacrylamide gels have enough resolving power to separate fragments differing by only one base pair in size, but their range is ~ 5 to 1000 bp. They are much more difficult to handle than agarose gels.

Formaldehyde-Agarose Gels
(Beverly Faulkner-Jones)
Agarose gels have a smaller resolving power than polyacrylamide gels but a greater range of separation - from 200 bp to >50 kb using standard gels and electrophoresis equipment. RNAs up to 10 000 kb can be separated in agarose gels using pulsed field gel electrophoresis.

Recovery of RNA fragments from polyacrylamide gels
(Beverly Faulkner-Jones)
The best method is the crush and soak method. It can be sued to isolate single-stranded RNA from denaturing gels. The RNA is of high purity but the method is long and inefficient if long transcripts are to be recovered (cf. less than 30% of DNA greater than 3 kb is recovered).
