After sorting the cells were lysed and subjected to combined DNA/ RNA isolation with the QIAGEN DNA/RNA/miRNA AllPrepKit (QIAGEN, Hilden, Germany).
For the gene expression profiling experiments RNA from the sorted healthy control TCRγδ+ T cell subsets was pooled in order to obtain higher amounts of RNA and to create pooled healthy control subset samples; N = 3 for Vδ1 and Vδ2 subsets, N = 8 for naive, TemRO and TemRA subsets due to lower sorting yields.
For RQ-PCR tests cDNA was synthesized from isolated RNA as well as cryopreserved RNA with reverse transcriptase Superscript II (Invitrogen Life Technologies, Waltham, MA, USA), 10x CA buffer (0.2 M Tris pH 8.3, 0.5M KCl), dNTP (GE Healthcare, Cleveland, OH, USA), dithiotreitol (Invitrogen Life Technologies), MgCl2 (Applied Biosystems Life Technologies, Waltham, MA, USA), recombinant RNAsin (Promega, Fitchburg, WI, USA) and random primers (Invitrogen Life Technologies).

For binding reactions, RNAs were denatured at 95 °C for 2 minutes, cooled on ice for 2 minutes, and then mixed with protein and binding buffer and incubated at 25 °C for 40 minutes. Final reaction concentrations were 5 nM 32P-RNA, protein (variable concentrations), 12 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 0.1 mg/μL yeast tRNA, 0.1 mg/mL BSA, 5 mM DTT, 1 unit/μL recombinant RNasin (Promega), and KCl and MgCl2 optimized for each system. Final salt concentrations were as follows (mM KCl, mM MgCl2): rplM RNAs (80, 1); rpmH RNAs (80, 1); and rpmB RNAs (250, 10). Protein dilutions from glycerol stocks were performed to maintain constant final glycerol concentrations of 4% (v/v) for all binding reactions. For L13, which was not stored in glycerol, the binding buffer was supplemented with 2.5% final (v/v) glycerol. Following equilibration, samples were mixed with glycerol loading dye to 10% final glycerol concentration and immediately loaded onto running native polyacrylamide gels (0.5× TBE; 0.4-mm × 28.5-cm × 30-cm). 8% (37.5:1 acrylamide:bisacrylamide) gels were used for rpmB and rplM RNAs and 6% (29:1 acrylamide:bisacrylamide) gels were used for rpmH RNAs. Gels were run for 4 hours in a cold room at 720 V, which maintained the gel temperature <15 °C, with at least 1 hour of prerun.

A549 cells were transiently transfected with plasmids containing the native SARS-CoV-2 S mRNA sequence, either wild type or mutated (U22741C) in the S VAIT element. Cells were treated with lentivirus particles pseudotyped with full-length SARS-CoV-2 spike protein (Genecopoeia, Rockville, MD #SP101-100) 48 h after transfection at a concentration of 6.62 × 104 TU/106 cells for 24 h. Bald lentiviral pseudovirion particles without the S protein were used as a control. Following lentivirus treatment, cytoplasmic extracts were prepared and resolved by centrifugation for 18 h at 17,000 rpm using 5% to 50% linear sucrose density gradients in polysome buffer (10 mM HEPES [pH 7.5], 100 mM KCl, 2.5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 50 U recombinant RNasin [Promega, Madison, WI], and 0.1% NP-40). Fractions were collected using an ISCO gradient fractionation system equipped with a UA-6 detector. Total RNA from these fractions was isolated by TRIzol extraction (Invitrogen) and used for reverse transcription (RT)-PCR with primers specific for the SARS-CoV-2 S gene (SRTF [5′-CGCTTGTTAAACAACTTAGCTC-3′] and SRTR [5′- CCCTTTCCACAAAAATCAACTC-3′], 256 bp product) and the human GAPDH gene (GAPDHRTF [5′- GACCACAGTCCATGCCATCACTGC-3′] and GAPDHRTR [5′- TGTTGCTGTAGCCAAATTCGTTG-3′], 443 bp product).

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.
