Evaluating RNA Sample Quality for RNA-Seq

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols

Timing: 1 h

The quality of your RNA samples needs to be evaluated before they are used for any downstream applications such as RNA-Seq. The quality of the data will be affected by degraded RNA samples.

Determine RNA quality and concentration using an Agilent BioAnalyzer and the Agilent RNA 6000 Nano Kit, following the manufacturer’s instructions, 1 μL of RNA sample will be sacrificed.

Note: An RNA Integrity Number (RIN) value is provided by the Agilent BioAnalyzer software based on the electrophoresis patterns it has detected from analyzed RNA samples. The software determines a RIN-value between 1 and 10, where 1 signifies highly degraded RNA and 10 indicates completely intact RNA. Agilent BioAnalyzer establishes this score based on the 16S/23S rRNA peak ratio. When RNA is degraded, these peaks will be less pronounced compared to the other RNA signals. These RNA signals are also generally higher and represent shorter RNA strands generated by the breakdown of RNA molecules. Typically, an RNA sample with a RIN score ≥ 8 is suitable for RNA-Seq.2 (link),3 (link),4 (link),5 (link)

Store RNA samples at −80°C.

Droplet-based single-cell transcriptomics

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Library preparation steps follow the same steps as in the DropSeq and SeqWell methods. Briefly, the beads were washed with 6×SSC twice after retrieval, and the captured mRNA was reverse-transcribed using Maxima H Minus reverse transcriptase (ThermoFisher) with a custom template switching oligo (AAGCAGTGGTATCAACGCAGAGTGAATrGrGrG). The cDNA coated beads were treated with Exonuclease I (Exo I, NEB) at 37°C for 45 min to chew away any unbound mRNA capture probes. cDNA on coated beads was amplified using a half PCR reaction. The amplified DNA was purified using Ampure XP beads (Beckman Coulter) at 0.6x ratio, and the quality of the amplified DNA was assessed by Agilent BioAnalyzer using high sensitivity chips. Purified cDNA was pooled and input for standard Nextera tagmentation and amplification reactions (Nextera XT, Illumina) using a custom primer instead of the i5 index primer to amplify only those fragments that contain the cell barcodes and UMIs. The PCR product was further purified using Ampure XP beads at 0.6x ratio and library quality-verified on Agilent BioAnalyzer high sensitivity chips. The libraries were sequenced on HiSeq 2500 (Illumina) using a custom primer with 75 cycles on Read 1 and 75 cycles on Read 2. For Read 1, only the first 20 bases were used in analysis. PhiX libraries were used at 20% as spike-in controls.

Feather follicles removed from RNAlater were bead‐milled in a Qiagen TissueLyser and messenger RNA was extracted from feathers using a Qiagen RNeasy mini‐kit, following manufacturer's instructions. RNA integrity was confirmed using the RNA Nano Kit on an Agilent Bioanalyzer (Agilent, CA). For RNAseq library preparation, we first isolated mRNA using a PrepX PolyA mRNA Isolation Kit (Wafergen, CA), then prepared stranded mRNA libraries using PrepX RNA‐Seq Kit (Wafergen, CA) on an Apollo 324 (Takara Bio Inc, Japan). We confirmed library integrity on an Agilent Bioanalyzer and calculated library concentration using a KAPA Library Quantification Kit (Roche, CA) with real‐time qPCR on a Bio‐Rad CFX96. We multiplexed cDNA libraries in equimolar ratio and estimated fragment sizes on an Agilent TapeStation, then sequenced paired‐end 75bp reads across two lanes of Illumina NextSeq 500. Preliminary quality assessment was performed using FastQC.

hESCS used for the microarray experiment were grown feeder-free and were >95% positive for the Tra-1-60 marker. Cell viability analysis with Resazurin prior to treatment with JC011 showed all cells to be >98.5% viable. RNA was extracted using standard Trizol™ protocol and subjected to spectrophotometric measurement (BioSPEC-Mini, Shimadzu) and quality determined using an Agilent Bioanalyzer. All samples show OD260/OD280 ratios of between 1.78–2.02 with concentrations ranging from ∼600 ng/µL to ∼980 ng/µL. Results from an Agilent Bioanalyzer analysis showed that all the samples had the RIN (RNA integrity Number) of 7.5 to 9.5. The Agilent™ two-colour microarrays were used for comparative microarray analysis. cRNA was prepared according to the manufacturer's recommended protocol (Agilent™ Two-Color Microarray-Based Gene Expression Analysis, Quick Amp Labeling v5.7). Normalization and data analysis was done using GeneSpring GX version 10.0 and Microsoft Excel. All experiments were performed in triplicate (N = 3). A gene was considered differentially expressed if fold-difference relative to controls was ≥3.

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
