Summary: Intercalated motifs or i-Motifs (iMs) are nucleic acid structures formed by cytosine-rich sequences, which may regulate cellular processes and have broad applications in nanotechnology due to their pH-dependent nature. We have developed an iM-specific nanobody (iMbody) that can recognize iM DNA structures regardless of their sequences, making it a versatile research tool for studying iMs in various contexts. Here, we provide a protocol for the bacterial expression and His-tag purification of iMbody. We then describe procedures for performing ELISA and immunostaining using iMbody. : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics. |
