Plant nuclei isolation - (Jan/18/2006 )

Hello,
I want to isolate nuclei from a cell suspension of BY2 cells. Then I want to prepare nuclear protein complexes from those nuclei.
Does anybody have a good protocol to do that
Thanks in advance

Nobody have done a similar experiment??

Rushton, P.; Weisshaar,B. (2002) DNA-protein interactions, In: Molecular Plant Biology: Practical Approach, Edts. Gilmartin, P.M.; Bowler, C., Oxford University Press, Oxford, 77-96

I did crude nuclear extracts with suspension cultures of Beta vulgaris and Nicotiana tabacum and tested topoisomerase activity. Worked well.

If you can't find the book in the library, try it on books.google.com.
