Total RNA (8–20 μg) from 21 hpf embryos and adults were isolated using RNAiso Reagent (Takara) and electrophoresed in a denaturing 12% polyacrylamide gel and transferred onto a Hybond-N+ membrane (GE Healthcare). miRNA probes (Additional file 5: Table S3) were DIG-labeled LNA-modified probes synthesized by Exiqon (Denmark). Hybridization and washing were performed as described by Válóczi [36 (link)]. Signals were detected using CDP-Star chemiluminescent substrate (Roche), and the blot was exposed to the Lumi-Imager F1 Workstation. To control equal loading, blots were hybridized with a DIG-labeled probe against U6 snRNA.

For sisRNA analysis, 10–30 µg of total RNA was separated on an 8% denaturing polyacrylamide gel (8 M urea, 1× TBE buffer). RNA was transferred by electrophoresis onto a nylon membrane (Zeta-Probe GT membrane; Bio-Rad Laboratories). For ASTR analysis, 8–10 µg of total RNA was separated on a 0.8% agarose/formaldehyde gel. RNA was transferred by capillary action onto a nylon membrane (Zeta-Probe GT membrane; Bio-Rad Laboratories). RNA was then UV cross-linked to the membranes, prehybridized with salmon sperm DNA, and hybridized overnight (14–16 h) with probes in DIG Easy Hyb Granules (Roche) at 51°C (for mbt sisRNA) or 42°C (for all other sisRNAs). DIG-labeled DNA probes were synthesized by PCR with genomic DNA as the template and purified before using. After hybridization, the membranes were rinsed once with 2× SSC, followed by one wash with 2× SSC and 0.1% SDS, and two washes with 0.1× SSC and 0.1% SDS. Detection was performed using the CDP-Star chemiluminescent substrate (Roche) and exposed on x-ray films.

To confirm the homologous integration of the deletion construct into the genome, gel-purified gDNA from potential Δpks1 and Δku80_Δpks1 transformants and their parental strains were digested overnight by PstI (Thermo). gDNA of Δku80 strains was digested overnight with AatII (Thermo). Digested gDNA was loaded on a 0.8% agarose gel, separated by electrophoresis, and transferred to a nylon membrane Hybond N+ (GE Healthcare). The probes for the upstream regions of pks1 (oligonucleotides 9 and 10) and ku80 (oligonucleotides 24 and 25) deletion constructs were synthetized using PCR DIG DNA Labelling Mix (Roche) and Taq DNA Polymerase (NEB). Probes were hybridized overnight in DIG Easy Hyb (Roche) at 42°C and detection was performed by chemiluminescence using anti-Digoxigenin-AP Fab fragments (Roche) and CDP-Star chemiluminescent substrate (Roche) in a ChemiDoc MP (Bio-Rad).

Northern blotting was performed as described previously5 (link). DIG-labeled DNA probes were made by PCR using genomic DNA as the template. To detect sisR-1, RNA was run on an 8% polyacrylamide gel (8 M urea, 1× TBE buffer), and transferred onto a nylon membrane by electrophoresis. To detect, ASTR, RNA was run on a 0.8% agarose/formaldehyde gel and transferred onto a nylon membrane by capillary action. RNA was UV crosslinked to the membrane, pre-hybridized in salmon sperm DNA, and hybridized with probes in DIG Easy Hyb Granules (Roche) at 42 °C overnight. Next day, the membranes were washed once with 2× SSC and 0.1% SDS, and twice with 0.1× SSC and 0.1% SDS, followed by detection with the CDP-Star chemiluminescent substrate (Roche).

Southern Blot Analysis of DNA Fragments

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A DNA fragment between 0.7 and 0.1 kb from the upstream or downstream region of every gene was amplified and used as a probe for Southern blot analysis (Fig. S1). The probes were labelled with the HighPrime Kit (Roche Applied Sciences, Almere, the Netherlands). About 15 μg of gDNA, previously digested with suitable restriction enzymes, was separated by electrophoresis on an 0.8% agarose gel. The gel was equilibrated in 20× saline–sodium citrate (SSC) buffer (3 M NaCl; 0.3 M C6H5Na3O7; pH 7) and the DNA was transferred overnight to a positively charged nylon membrane (Zeta‐Probe; Bio‐Rad, Munchen, Germany). Subsequently, the membrane was incubated overnight with the labelled probe(s). For detection, the membrane was treated with anti‐DIG Fab fragment alkaline phosphatase and the CDP‐Star chemiluminescent substrate (Roche Applied Sciences). The signal was measured using a Lumi‐Imager (Fujifilm LAS‐4000, Fujifilm Co. Ltd, Tokio, Japan).

MG1655-Sp5 cells were grown in LB broth at 37 °C until the OD660 reached 0.4, and harvested at 0, 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 min after 2.0 µg/mL MMC addition.

Total RNA (2.0 µg) was electrophoresed on a 6% polyacrylamide gel (FUJIFILM Wako Pure Chemical, Osaka, Japan) containing 7 M urea (FUJIFILM Wako Pure Chemical, Osaka, Japan), followed by northern blotting. The digoxigenin (Dig)-labeled oligo-probe YO-597 or YO-592 (eurofins, Tokyo, Japan) was used for hokW mRNA or sokW RNA. After hybridization, the membranes were probed with anti-digoxigenin-AP Fab fragments (Roche, Basel, Switzerland), and RNAs were detected using CDP-Star chemiluminescent substrate (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) and the C-DiGit Blot Scanner (LI-COR, Lincoln, NE, USA).

For evaluating the gene expression of SQS and LS at the mRNA level, the corresponding DNA fragments were cloned from G. lucidum BCRC 3611118 (link), 54 (link), and northern blotting was performed using standard procedures. Trizol reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) was used to extract fungal total RNA per the manufacturer’s protocol. The DNA probe for the SQS gene was amplified by PCR using the primers glssF263 (5′-TGGACACGATCGAAGATGACATGAC-3′) and glssR1492 (5′-GCCATCGTTTGTGGGATCGCACAGAA-3′), with the incorporation of digoxigenin-11-dUTP (Roche Applied Science). The primers gllsF1292 (5′-CGGCGTATCGGCACCAGACGAA-3′) and gllsR2105 (5′-TTCGGGTACGATATCGCGACGTTC-3′) were used to amplify the DNA probe for the LS coding region. Immunological detection of each northern blot was carried out using CDP-Star® chemiluminescent substrate according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Roche Applied Science). All experiments were conducted at least three times.

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.
