Transcriptomic Analysis of Avian Thymus Tissue

An Ambion MagMAX-96 Kit (AM1839) (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA) was used to isolate RNA from the thymus samples. The quality and quantity of RNA were assessed using the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer according to the manufacturer's instructions (Agilent Technologies). RNA Integrity Numbers (RIN) for all the RNA samples selected to construct the cDNA libraries were greater than 8.0. Next, an Illumina TruSeq ® RNA Sample Preparation v2 Kit was utilized to convert 0.1 to 4 μg RNA into cDNA libraries. Twenty-four cDNA libraries, which included 4 biological replicates (birds) for each treatment, were constructed. Briefly, fragment mRNA was purified using oligo-dT beads from the initial RNA and reverse transcribed into a double strand cDNA fragment. End repair, adenylation, adapter ligation, and PCR amplification were then carried out in conformance with the TruSeq® manufacturer's instructions (Protocol: #15026495, May 2012). A Qubit® Quantitation Platform and HS dsDNA kit (Invitrogen, Paisley, UK) were then used to test and quantify the cDNA libraries. Six cDNA libraries, including one for each of the 6 treatments, were sequenced in the same lane of the Illumina® HiSeq 2000 at the Iowa State University DNA facility (4 lanes for the 24 cDNA libraries) with single end 100 bp cycles.

Bursas stored in RNAlater were subjected to total RNA extraction using the Ambion MagMAX-96 Kit (AM1839) (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA) according to the manufacturer’s directions. To assess the quality and quantity of RNA, the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyser (Agilent Technologies) was used to generate an RNA Integrity Number (RIN). The RIN score of all RNA samples was greater than 8.0. Total RNA (0.1–4 μg) was used for library preparation. Twenty-two RNA samples (4 per each challenged group, and 3 per each non-challenged group) were processed to produce 22 individual cDNA libraries using the Illumina TruSeq ® RNA Sample Preparation v2 Kit per the manufacturer’s instructions (Protocol: #15026495, May 2012). Libraries were quantitated using the Qubit® Quantitation Platform and HS dsDNA kit (Invitrogen, Paisley, UK). To control for lane and batch effects, each lane contained a sample from each of the six treatment groups. Four lanes of an Illumina® HiSeq 2000 instrument at DNA facility in Iowa State University (ISU) were used to generate a total of 537.2 million 100bp single-end reads. Demultiplexed fastq files were generated using Illumina CASAVA software.

RNA Extraction from Bird Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Four birds (one from each of four replicates) from each of the six conditions were selected, resulting in 24 samples used for RNAseq. The RNA samples were isolated using the Ambion MagMax-96 Kit (AM1839) (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA) and immediately stored at −80 °C. All extraction procedures were performed according to manufacturer’s recommendations. A NanoDrop ND-1000 UV–vis Spectrophotometer (NanoDrop Technologies Inc., Wilmington, DE, USA) was used to quantify the RNA. In addition, the quality of RNA was tested using the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyser (Agilent Technologies). The RNA Integrity Number (RIN) was greater than 9.0 for all samples.

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.
