Total RNA was isolated using the High Purity Total RNA Rapid Extraction Kit (BioTeke, Beijing, China) according to the manufacturer's instructions, and the absorbances of the extracted RNAs at 260 nm and 280 nm were determined spectrophotometrically (Molecular Devices, Ramsey MN USA). RNA samples with purity ratios (A260/A280) between 1.8 and 2.0 were used for synthesizing single-strand cDNA by means of All-in-One cDNA Synthesis SuperMix (Bimake) for quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Gene-specific primers (Table 1) were designed by Invitrogen (Carlsbad, CA, USA). qPCR was performed to detect the relative mRNA expression levels using 2 ×SYBR Green qPCR Master Mix (Bimake) as described in the protocol. To determine the specificity of the amplification, melting curve analysis was performed for all final PCR products. Relative changes in gene expression were calculated and expressed as fold changes using the relative quantification (ΔΔCt) method. The relative abundance of each transcript was normalized to that of β-actin. Each sample was run in triplicate.

Total RNA was extracted from treated and control samples using high purity total RNA rapid extraction kit (BioTeKe, Beijing, China) and then Fast Super RT Kit cDNA with gDNase was used to perform reverse transcription according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Design of StPIN gene-specific primers for quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis were conducted using Primer Primer 5 software and synthesized in Sangon (Shanghai, China) (Table S4). Quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) was carried out on the Bio-Rad CFX96 Real Time PCR System using 2 × RealStar Green Fast Mixture (GenStar, Beijing, China) according to manufacturer’s protocol and Elongation factor 1-a (ef1-a) as the internal reference gene to normalize the expression of StPIN genes [51 (link)]. PCR amplification was performed in a total volume of 10 μL reaction mixture containing 0.4 μL cDNA as template, 5 μL RealStar Green Fast Mixture (2×), 0.4 μL of each forward and reverse primer (10 μM) and RNase-free water up to 10 μL. The thermal cycling conditions were set as follows: initial activation 95 °C for 2 min, then 40 cycles of 95 °C for 15s, 60 °C for 15s and 72 °C for 30s. A melting curve was generated from 65 °C to 95 °C. 2−∆∆Ct method [52 (link)] was employed to visualize the expression data about each treatment of each gene. All the expression analyses were based on three biological and two technical replicates.

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.
