Total RNA was isolated from the insect sample in TRIzol using Direct-Zol R.N.A. Miniprep Kit (ZYMO Research). The quality and quantity of the isolated RNA were analyzed using a 1.2% agarose gel and NanoDropTM 1000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Wilmington, DE, USA) reading, respectively. Paired-end RNA-Seq libraries were prepared using an Illumina TruSeq stranded mRNA library preparation kit. The fragments of Poly A-tailed mRNA were pulled out from the total RNA using poly-T attached magnetic beads and subjected to enzymatic fragmentation. Following the synthesis of the first strand of cDNA, the RNA-dependent synthesis of the second strand was facilitated using a strand and ACTIN-D mix. The double-stranded cDNA was then purified with XP (Ampure) beads, followed by adapter ligation, A-tailing, and a limited number of PCR cycles to enrich it. The PCR-enriched libraries were analyzed for quality and quantity in a 4200 TapeStation system (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA) using High sensitivity D1000 Screen tape.

About PubCompare

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.
