Poly a polymerase kit

Manufactured by New England Biolabs

The Poly(A) Polymerase Kit is a laboratory tool used to add poly(A) tails to the 3' end of RNA molecules. It contains the necessary reagents and enzymes to perform this polyadenylation process, a common technique in molecular biology.

Synthesis of Capped and Polyadenylated mRNA

DNA plasmids (Invitrogen) containing a T7 promoter upstream of the sequences for luciferase (Luc), or erythropoietin (EPO), or scrambled EPO coding region (scramble) mRNA were used as templates for mRNA synthesis. DNA plasmids were linearized using restriction enzyme XbaI (New England Biolabs, Ipswich, MA) and transcribed using the HiScribe T7 RNA Synthesis Kit (New England Biolabs). To make pseudouridine-modified mRNA, uridine triphosphate was replaced with pseudouridine triphosphate (Trilink, San Diego, CA) during the transcription step. mRNA was capped with the Vaccinia Capping System (New England Biolabs), and the cap was modified to Cap1 using mRNA Cap 2’-O-Methyltransferase (New England Biolabs). PolyA tails were added to the RNA using a Poly(A) Polymerase Kit (New England Biolabs). All mRNAs were purified after the transcription and tailing steps using MEGAClear RNA purification columns (Life Technologies, Beverly, MA). Concentration was determined using a NanoDrop 1000 (Thermo Scientific, Cambridge, MA).

Rapid Transcriptome Analysis via SNU-Seq

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
SNU-Seq libraries were generated by following the TT-Seq protocol (Schwalb et al., 2016) , but omitting the sonication step. Before library preparation, nascent RNAs were polyadenylated using the NEB Poly(A)-Polymerase kit following the kit instructions. The reaction with 150 ng thiolabeled RNA was left for 45 minutes at 37 ˚C before isopropanol precipitation. The pellet was resuspended in 11 L RNase-free water. Qualities and amounts were checked on the Qbit fluorometer and the Agilent Bioanalyzer (RNA Pico Chip). 6x10 6 Hep3B cells were treated with 10 ng/ml IFN for 0, 0.5, 2 or 24 hrs. During the final 12 min of IFN treatment, 500 M 4sU was additionally added. Following treatments, cells were washed with cold PBS before lysing in Qiazol on ice. Samples were spiked with Saccharomyces cerevisiae RNA (0.01%). 300
g RNA was biotinylated.
Libraries were prepared following the Quant-Seq Lexogen 3' mRNA kit instructions with 13 PCR cycles. Library qualities were checked using the Agilent Bioanalyzer (DNA High Sensitivity Chip). Following the manufacturer's instructions, the chips prepared by the Ion Chef were then sequenced on an Ion Proton Sequencing platform.

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.
