Non-fluorescently labeled nuclesomal DNA fragments were obtained as follows. pUC57 plasmids containing eight repeats of the high-affinity 147 bp Widom 603 sequence were amplified in E. coli XL-10 stain and purified via alkaline lysis (see details in Supplementary Materials and Methods). The Widom 603 fragments were released via cleavage with EcoRV and separated from parent plasmid with polyethylene glycol precipitation in order to clear the vector backbone as described in [86 ]. Nucleosomal DNA fragments fluorescently labeled at the 35 and 112 bp positions were obtained following established protocols [44 (link),87 (link),88 (link)]. Briefly, DNA fragments (147 bp long) were amplified via PCR from the pUC57 plasmid containing the Widom 603 nucleosomal DNA sequence using the following primers:
Forward 5’-ATCAGTTCGCGCGCCCACCTACCGTGTGAAGTCG[Cy3-dT]CACTCGG-3’ (where Cy3-dT is a nucleotide labeled with Cy3);
Reverse 5’-ATCCCAGGGACTTGAAGTAATAAGGACGGAGGGCC[Cy5-dT]CTTTCAACATCGAT-3’ (where Cy5-dT is a nucleotide labeled with Cy5). A Cleanup Standard kit (Evrogen, Moscow, Russia) was used to purify the amplified DNA fragments.

The DNA sequences of the humanized variable domains of the hB16 antibody were synthesized by a chemo-enzymatic method (Evrogen, Moscow, Russia). Fragments that encode light-chain variable domain and heavy-chain variable domain sequences of humanized hB16 antibody were generated by PCR, separated from other reaction products by DNA-electrophoresis and purified on CleanUp standard kit (Evrogen, Russia) columns. The nucleotide sequences of VL and VH were joined with Ck and CH1-CH3 nucleotide sequences of human IgG1 by SOE-PCR, digested with NheI and XhoI endonuclease restriction enzymes and cloned into a pcDNA3.4 vector.

Genomic RNA from immunocaptured virus particles was employed for synthesis and amplification of cDNA libraries using Complete Whole Transcriptome Amplification Kit (WTA2, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) as described previously [40 (link)]. The resulting libraries were subjected to the high-throughput sequencing on the Illumina MiSeq platform (isolates Ka7, Ka15, Ka23) or the 454 platform (Bg6, Bg26, Bg66, Pul). The contigs were assembled de novo using the SPAdes v.3.10.1 program [41 (link)]. The PPV-relevant contigs were identified by a BLASTn search (https://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi) and aligned on the PPV genome that showed the greatest BLAST score. Appropriate primers were designed to fill the internal gaps. The 5’-terminal region was amplified using 5’RACE kit (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA), following the manufacturer’s protocol. The corresponding PCR products were purified from agarose gel with Cleanup Standard kit (Evrogen) and sequenced in both directions using Evrogen facilities. The full-length genome sequences were deposited in GenBank under accession numbers MH311853–MH311859.

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.
