Total RNA from ND7/23 cells was extracted using Trizol reagent (Ambion, USA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Six-week old male Sprague Dawley rat (Orient Bio, Korea) dorsal root ganglia (DRG) cDNA was used as positive control templates to validate the specificity of some PCR primers. Fresh rat cadavers were used to dissect DRG. Animals were delivered on the day of experiment and sacrificed via CO2 inhalation for another study as approved by Seoul National University IACUC (SNU-160202-3-2, Dr. Seog Bae Oh). Tissue was collected in RNAlater solution (Ambion, USA), washed using Diethylpyrocarbonate (DEPC)-PBS and homogenized in Trizol reagent and RNA extracted.
mRNA was reverse transcribed (RT) in 6μl reaction containing M-MLV reverse transcriptase (200 units, Promega, USA), 50mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.3), 75mM KCl, 3mM MgCl2, 10mM dithiothreitol, dNTPs each at 0.5mM and RNase inhibitor (25 units, Enzynomics, Korea). Complementary DNA (cDNA) was synthesized from 500ng of total RNA, freshly isolated, with reverse transcriptase primed with (40pmole) oligo-dT or gene-specific primers. The cDNA was stored at -20°C until use.

For the minigene assay, SK-N-SH cells were transfected with 50 ng of DJ-1 minigene vector with 2 μg of PTB or PSF expression vector for 36 h. Total RNA was extracted using a GeneAll Hybrid-R™ RNA extraction kit (GeneAll, Seoul, Korea). Reverse transcription was performed with 1 μg of total RNA, random hexamer, M-MLV reverse transcriptase (Promega), and RNase inhibitor (Enzynomics, Daejeon, Korea). RT-PCR was performed using GoldHotStart Taq PCR Master Mix (Bioneer) followed by agarose gel electrophoresis. The PCR band intensity was measured using ImageJ software. The DJ-1 E6 exclusion ratio was calculated using the PCR band intensity normalized to the PCR product size. The primers used in RT-PCR reactions were as follows: DJ-1 minigene E6 splicing pattern 5′-GAT CAC TCT CGG CAT GGA CG-3′ and 5′-GCT TGT AAG AAT CAG GCC GTC-3′ and endogenous DJ-1 E6 splicing pattern 5′-CCA TAT GAT GTG GTG GTT CTA CC-3′ and 5′-GCT TGT AAG AAT CAG GCC GTC-3′.

Cells were lysed with RIP buffer [150 mM KCl, 25 mM Tris (pH 7.4), 5 mM EDTA, 0.5 mM DTT, 0.5% NP40, and 100 U/mL RNase inhibitor (Enzynomics, Daejeon, Korea)] supplemented with a protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche Applied Science). Cell lysates containing 600 μg of protein were incubated with anti-Rbfox2 antibody for 4 h at 4 °C. The lysate was centrifuged at 10,000 × g for 10 min, and the supernatant was precleared by interaction with Dynabeads (Protein G; Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) for 2 h at 4 °C with constant shaking.

RNA-Antibody Binding Assay

RNA was renatured by heating for 5 min at 65°C, chilling on ice for 10 min, and slowly returning to room temperature. RNA–antibody complexes were formed in 100 μL PBS containing 0.6 nM RNA, 2 nM–100 nM antibodies, and 2 units/μL RNase inhibitor (Enzynomics) for 30 min at room temperature. The reaction mixture was applied to a dot-blot apparatus in which Hybond ECL membrane (GE Healthcare) and Hybond-XL membrane (GE Healthcare) were layered with Whatman 3 MM paper in between. In this process, RNAs that passed through the Hybond ECL membrane without binding to the antibody were immobilized on the Hybond-XL membrane. The Hybond-XL membrane was washed two times with PBS and hybridized with 5′-32P–labeled antisense oligonucleotide probe (5′-TTTGAGGGAAGTTACGCTTAT for BC200 RNA, 5′-GGGAGAACGGGGTCTCGC for truncated BC200 RNA derivatives, or 5′-GGGAATCTCCGAGATGCCGCC for Escherichia coli 6S RNA as an irrelevant RNA), exposed to the imaging plate, and analyzed on the Phosphor-image analyzer. The amount of radiolabeled RNA on each filter was quantified with ImageJ software (NIH), and plots of bound fractions of RNA versus concentration of antibody were obtained with Origin software (OriginLab). Binding constants (Kd) were calculated by fitting data to the Hill equation.

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.
