WGS was performed as detailed elsewhere (Perez-Lago et al., 2014 (link)) using a HiSeq 2000 device and a Miseq device (Illumina), which generated 101-51–bp paired-end reads.

Cyanidioschyzon merolae cells were grown until late log-phase. RNA was isolated using RNeasy Plant Mini Kit (Qiagen), following a standard protocol. cDNA synthesis and DNase treatment were performed using RevertAid First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit (Thermo Scientific) with oligo(dT) primers, according to a standard manual.

The samples were sequenced on HiSeq 2000 device (Illumina Inc.). Paired-end raw sequencing reads were analyzed using Galaxy implementations (usegalaxy.org) of FastQC program and Tuxedo protocol (Trapnell et al., 2012 (link)). The new annotation from C. merolae Genome Project v3 was employed as a reference. The correlation between replicates in RNA-seq experiment was scored using Pearson correlation and shown in Supplementary Figure S4.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A CSS assembly of CS chromosome arms 4AS (4AS‐CS) and 4AL (4AL‐CS) were acquired from Internation Wheat Genome Sequencing Consortium (IWGSC, 2014). Two sequencing libraries of DNA amplified from the 4AL‐TM telosome were constructed using a Nextera kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA) with the insert size adjusted to 500 and 1000 bp. The resulting clones were sequenced as paired‐end reads by IGA (Udine, Italy) using a HiSeq 2000 device (Illumina). The 4AL‐TM reads were assembled with SOAPdenovo2 software, applying a range of k‐mers (54–99, with a step size of 3) to select the assembly with the highest coverage and the largest N50. Assembled scaffolds (k‐mer of 69, minimum length 200 bp) were chosen for further analysis (Table 1).

Microarray and RNA-seq Analysis of AML Subpopulations

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Microarray gene expression analyses were performed as described in Wang
et al40 (link). The log2-normalized
data were linearized and used as input for Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA,
Broadinstitute.org). One gene matrix transposed file was generated containing
the transcripts from up- and down-regulated genes in the comparison of
NKG2DLneg and NKG2DLpos blasts (CD34-expressing and
non-expressing AMLs separately), and the transcripts of the LSC signature, the
HSC signature, the progenitor signature and the 17-genes stemness score
published previously43 (link),44 (link). GSEA computes if the gene set
is enriched in the generated gene expression data. For RNA-sequencing, total RNA
from 50,000 cell was isolated using an Arcturus PicoPure RNA isolation kit (Life
Technologies, Invitrogen). cDNA libraries were generated with 10 ng of total RNA
using the SMARTer Ultra Low RNA kit for Illumina sequencing (Clontech
Laboratories) and sequenced with a HiSeq2000 device (Illumina). Sequences were
aligned to hg19 reference genome using the STAR alignment software.
DESeq245 (link) was used to
calculate differentially expressed genes between NKG2DLneg and
NKG2DLpos samples. GSEA was performed using default settings.

Transcriptome Sequencing and Differential Expression Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Transcriptome sequencing libraries were prepared from isolated total RNA using the TruSeq RNA sample preparation kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA), and single-read 50 bp sequencing was performed in a HiSeq-2000 device (Illumina). Reads were then trimmed by removing stretches of bases with a quality score <30 at their ends, and subsequently mapped using Tophat2.0.6 against the hg19 assembly of the human genome.17 (link) Finally, differential expression was quantified using DESeq2 and Cuffdiff 2.0, and subjected to diverse testing corrections.18 (link),19 (link) Genes with a q-value <0.05 were considered differentially expressed. Principal component analysis plots and heat maps were created in R using the FactoMineR and pheatmap packages, respectively. For gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA, Broad Institute, Boston, MA, USA),20 (link) the fragments per kilobase of transcript per million mapped reads (FPKM) values obtained from Cuffdiff 2.0 for the different samples were compared either with the gene sets contained in the Molecular Signature Database or with self-made gene lists. The Signal2Noise metric and 1000 gene set-based permutations were applied to all analyses. Ingenuity pathway analysis software (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) was used to predict the potential extrinsic factors capable of generating the different RNA sequencing data sets.

RNA was extracted from 107
N. fowleri trophozoites cultivated in Nelson’s medium using the EZ1 RNA Universal Tissue Kit (Qiagen) and the EZ1 BioRobot (Qiagen). Trophozoites were resuspended in 750 μl of QIAzol lysis reagent (Qiagen), followed by disruption and homogenization by operating a TissueLyser at 25 Hz for 3 min. After incubation for 5 min at room temperature, 150 μl chloroform (Grogg, Stettlen, Switzerland) was added to the homogenized samples. The mixture was then centrifuged for 15 min at 12,000 g at 4°C, and the upper aqueous phase was used as the starting material for RNA isolation with the EZ1 BioRobot, according to manufacturer’s protocol. Quantification and examination of the total RNA integrity was performed with the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer system. Four micrograms of high-quality RNA was sent to the Next Generation Sequencing Platform of the University of Bern for paired-end sequencing by the Illumina HiSeq 2000 device.
The reads from RNA sequencing have been deposited in DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank under accession SRX553040.

The youngest fully expanded leaf at development stage 5 [44 (link)] was collected from three-five individuals of the parental, allotriploid and allohexaploid plants, snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored at −80 °C. Total RNA was extracted from the leaf tissue using an RNAprep Pure Plant kit (TIANGEN, Beijing, China), according to the manufacturer’s protocol. The integrity of the extracted RNA was validated using a 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA, USA). The RNA was used to construct and sequence 13 RNA-Seq libraries: two each from the AS2255 × AS60 and LDN × AS60 allotriploids, the AS2255 × AS60 and LDN × AS60 allohexaploids, AS2255 and AS60, and one from LDN. Paired end sequencing libraries (average insert size: 200 bp) prepared using a NEBNext® Ultra™ RNA Library Prep kit (New England Biolabs) and sequenced using a HiSeq2000 device (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer’s standard protocols. Raw RNA reads were de-multiplexed using bcl2fastq v1.8.4 (support.illumina.com/downloads/bcl2fastq_conversion_software_184.html). All contaminants and low quality reads were removed by enforcing a Q30 threshold of 80% and a maximum of 0.2% ambiguous base calls.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ChIP sequencing was performed as previously described [39 (link)] starting from 10*107 REH cells. Nuclei were isolated and chromatin was purified by chemical lysis and the purified chromatin was fragmented to 200-300 bp fragments by sonication (Covaris, S220, Focused-ultrasonicator). Chromatin immunoprecipitation was performed by incubation of the chromatin fraction overnight with 100 μl of protein-A coated beads (Thermo-Scientific) and 10 μg of fibrillarin-specific (Abcam, ab5821) or H3K27ac-specific antibodies (Abcam, ab4729). The next day, beads were washed to remove non-specific binding events and enriched chromatin fragments were eluted from the beads, followed by reverse cross-linking by incubation at 65°C overnight. DNA was subsequently purified by phenol/chloroform extraction and used for library preparation and sequencing using an Illumina Hiseq 2000 device (San Diego, CA, USA). Raw sequencing data were mapped to the human reference genome (GRCh37/h19) using Bowtie. Peak calling was performed using MACS 1.4. The ChIP-seq data were deposited in the GEO database (GSE79873).

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.
