DNA Library Preparation and Size Selection

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We constructed a library containing 300–390 ng DNA for each sample. Libraries with barcodes were size-selected from within the range of 190–240 bp (insert DNA ranging from 100 to 150 bp) using E-Gel CloneWell Agarose Gels (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). A piece of E-Gels contains six effective wells, each well can run a mixed sample which contains five samples of the NIPS DNA sequencing library. So, a piece of E-Gels can run thirty samples. Per the manufacturer’s instructions: 100 ng DNA per well was loaded on E-Gel EX Gels, 2% (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA), a pre-cast 2% agarose gel with 0.8% SYBR stain; the gel was run on E-Gel iBase Power System (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) for approximately 15 min; and DNA with target sizes was retrieved from the bottom wells on the gel. A 50 bp DNA ladder was used as the marker (Invitrogen). The selected library was then tested with an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer (Fig. 5) and quantified by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using KAPA Library Quantification Kits (for the Ion Torrent platform).

RNA concentration and purity were measured by Nanodrop ND 1000 spectrophotometer (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA 02451, USA) using 1 µL of isolated RNA. The A280/260 and A260/230 absorbance ratios were used to assess purity, considering a ratio between 1.8 and 2.0 to be pure.
RNA and miRNA integrity was estimated by microcapillary electrophoresis in an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent Technology, Santa Clara, CA 95051, USA). For miRNA analysis, sample aliquots were diluted at 10 ng/µL just before use and measured in the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer using a Small RNA kit (Agilent Technology, Santa Clara, CA 95051, USA). The integrity of miRNA was calculated as the relative abundance of miRNA species (10–40 nt) in comparison to the total amount of small RNA fraction (10–150 nt). For RNA integrity, 1 µL of RNA was submitted to Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer using Agilent RNA 6000 nano kit (Agilent Technology, Santa Clara, CA 95051, USA). RIN number and relative percentage of total RNA species (60–149 nt and 150–299 nt) were recorded.

Isolation, heat fragmentation and priming were performed according to manufacturer instructions. cDNA synthesis was followed by purification and size selection. Finally, library clean-up was performed used AMPure XP beads (Beckman Coulter Genomics, Brea, CA, USA; Cat. A63881) and quality was assessed using the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. For each sample, library sequencing was performed using a 50-bp paired-end protocol on a single lane of an NovaSeq6000 sequencer. Approximately, 50 to 90 million uniquely mapped reads were generated per fetal forebrain library. The raw data were deposited in NCBI’s Gene Expression Omnibus (the ID will be placed here upon manuscript acceptance).

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.
