Purification of tRNA from Total RNA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNAs were isolated using TRIzol and then subjected to a two-step purification to obtain tRNA. First, a PureLink RNA Mini extraction kit (Life Technologies) was used to precipitate the ribosomal RNA in the sample. In the second step, size-exclusion chromatography (SEC-HPLC) was performed using an Agilent Bio SEC-3 column with 10 mM ammonium acetate at pH 7 as the mobile phase. Neutral pH was selected to minimize hydrolysis of ct6A. tRNA and rRNA were collected as separate fractions, vacuum concentrated and reconstituted in water. tRNA concentrations were determined by UV spectroscopy at 260 nm. In the yeast samples, the proportion of tRNA to ribosomal RNA was much higher so only SEC-HPLC fractionation was required to obtain pure tRNA for analysis.

Total RNA was extracted from differentiated memory B cells at day 13 using the PureLink RNA Mini Extraction Kit (Life Technologies) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Total RNA was then converted to cDNA using the high-capacity RNA-to-cDNA Kit (Applied Biosystems). Relative gene expression was measured using the TaqMan gene expression assay (BLIMP-1: Hs00153357_m1; XBP1: Hs00231936_m1; IRF4:Hs01056533_m1; PAX5: Hs00277134_m1; and BCL6: Hs00153368_m1). The expression averages of ACTB (Hs01060665_g1) and GAPDH (Hs02758991_g1) were used as endogenous controls, while day 0 naive B cells of the same individuals were used as undifferentiated controls. A final reaction mixture of 20 μL volume was prepared: 1 μL TaqMan probes, 5 μL TaqMan Gene Expression Master Mix (Applied Biosystems), and 30 ng cDNA in nuclease-free water. Relative fluorescence intensity was measured using the 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems). Relative gene expression was calculated by correcting to the endogenous and undifferentiated controls: ΔΔCT = (CT [target, untreated] – CT [reference, untreated]) – (CT [target, treated] – CT [reference, treated]); ratio = 2ΔΔCT.

On day 6, all animals were euthanized by 5% Isoflurane overdose and cervical dislocation. Animals were weighed and all wound areas (2 per mouse) were excised, placed in 1 mL RNAlater™ Stabilization Solution (Thermo Fisher, Waltham, WA, USA), and stored at −80 °C until RNA isolation. Dermal punches were sent to University of Arizona Genetics Core (Tucson, AZ, USA) for RNA isolation. Total RNA was isolated from each mouse skin tissue sample using the Invitrogen PureLink RNA Mini extraction kit (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). RNA quantity and ribosomal RNA integrity (RIN) was determined using the 2100 Bioanalyzer Instrument (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA). Primers for Gapdh, Sdha, As3mt, Mmp1a, Timp1, Esr1, Esr2, and Gper1 were designed using the total gene sequences (Primer3, NCBI) for each target gene assessed (Integrated Data Technologies, Coralville, IA, USA) (Table 1). A standard curve was run for each primer set and melting peaks were assessed. Reagents for cDNA synthesis/qPCR and thermocycler settings were previously described.
