16S rDNA V4 Amplicon Sequencing

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A multiplexed amplicon library covering the 16S rDNA gene V4 region was generated from human stool sample DNA as described 58 (link). Briefly, bacterial genomic DNA was extracted using the Mo Bio Power Fecal DNA Isolation kit (Mo Bio Laboratories) according to the manufacturer's instructions. To increase the DNA yields, the following modifications were used. An additional bead beater step using the Faster Prep FP120 (Thermo) at 6 meters/second for 1 min was used instead of vortex agitation. Incubation with buffers C2 and C3 was done for 10 min at 4°C. Starting nucleic acid concentrations were determined by a Qubit Fluromoter (Life Technologies). The amplicon library was prepared using dual-index barcodes 58 (link). The aggregated library pool was size selected from 300-500 base pairs (bp) on a pippin prep 1.5% agarose cassette (Sage Sciences) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The concentration of the pool was measured by qPCR (Kapa Biosystems) and loaded onto the MiSeq Illumina instrument (300 bp kit) at 6-9pM with 40% phiX spike-in to compensate for low base diversity according to Illumina's standard loading protocol.

Total genomic DNA was extracted from 500-mg stool samples using the PowerFecal DNA Isolation kit (Mo Bio Laboratories, Carlsbad, CA, USA), according to the manufacturer’s instructions with the following modifications to improve yields from difficult-to-lyse bacteria. An additional bead-beating step using Faster Prep FP120 (Thermo) at 6 m/s for 1 min was used instead of vortex agitation. Incubation with buffers C2 and C3 was increased to 10 min at 4 °C. Subsequently, quantity of extracted DNA samples were measured by a Qubit Fluorometer (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA), and then, extracted DNA of samples were sent to MIT-BioMicroCenter for multiplexed amplicon library preparation, covering the 16S rRNA gene V4 region using a dual-index barcode protocol, followed by Illumina MiSeq 16S rRNA gene sequencing.

A multiplexed amplicon library covering the 16S rDNA gene V4 region was generated from human stool sample DNA. Bacterial genomic DNA was extracted using the Mo Bio Power Fecal DNA Isolation kit (Mo Bio Laboratories, Carlsbad, CA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions for high yields of DNA with the following modifications to increase yields from difficult to lyse microbes. An additional bead beater step using the Faster Prep FP120 (Thermo) at 6 meters/second for 1 min was used instead of vortex agitation. Incubation with buffers C2 and C3 was increased to 10 min at 4°C.
Starting nucleic acid concentrations were determined by a Qubit Fluromoter (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA). A multiplexed amplicon library covering the 16S rDNA gene V4 region was prepared using the protocol of with dual-index barcodes.17 (link) The aggregated library pool was size selected from 300–500 bp on a pippin prep 1.5% agarose cassette (Sage Science, Beverly, MA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The concentration of the pool was measured by qPCR (Kapa Biosystems, Willmington, MA) and loaded onto the MiSeq Illumina instrument (300 bp kit) at 6–9pM with 40% phiX spike-in to compensate for low base diversity according to Illumina’s standard loading protocol.

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.
