Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Two overlapping sets of primers were used to amplify the mitogenomes of the H. nepalensis and H. yeni species. The long-PCR primers were created using the 12S rRNA and cox1 genes of Haemaphysalis bancrofti (NC041076) and Haemaphysalis japonica (MG253031). The following PCR primers were employed:
The PCR was implemented in a 50 μl reaction mixture including 10 μl of 5X PrimeSTAR GXL Buffer (Takara, Japan), 1 μl of PrimeSTAR GXL DNA Polymerase (Takara, Japan), 4 μl of each primer, 4 μl of dNTPs, 4 μl of DNA template, and 23 μl of nuclease-free water. The PCR conditions used in the amplification procedure were as follows: initial denaturation at 95°C for 5 mins, followed by 45 cycles of denaturation (98°C for 10 s), annealing (68°C for 30 s), and extension (68°C for 10 mins), and a final extension was subjected to 68°C for 10 mins. The findings of the PCR were examined using 1.2 percent agarose gel electrophoresis stained with ethidium bromide (15 (link)). Libraries were sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform at Shanghai Biotechnology Co. Ltd. after the amplified PCR products had been purified.

Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood using an automated DNA extraction system (QuickGene-Auto240L, Kurabo, Japan). Repeat expansion in NOTCH2NLC was examined by repeat-primed PCR, followed by electrophoresis on a 3500xl Genetic analyzer (ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), as described previously [6 (link)]. Briefly, PCR was performed in a total volume of 10 μL of reaction solution containing 0.25U PrimeSTAR GXL DNA Polymerase; 1 × PrimeSTAR GXL Buffer; 200 µM of dATP, dTTP, dCTP (Takara Bio, Shiga, Japan), and 7-Deaza-2′-deoxy-guanosine-5′- triphosphate (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA); 5% dimethyl sulfoxide (Sigma-Aldrich); 1 M betaine (Sigma-Aldrich); 0.3 µM of each primer mix; and 100 ng of genomic DNA. The presence of a sawtooth pattern in the electropherogram was regarded as an abnormal repeat expansion. NOTCH2NLC repeat size was further determined by fluorescence amplicon-length PCR as described previously [6 (link)]. GeneMapper software (ThermoFisher Scientific) was used to determine GGC repeat length.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Genomic DNA from whole blood or buffy coat was extracted and purified using the QIAamp DNA Blood Maxi and Midi Kits (Qiagen) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. DNA samples from subjects of the discovery cohort were amplified at eight loci (HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, -DQA1, -DQB1, -DPA1 and -DPB1) by full gene-length long-range PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction). Novel primers for HLA-DQA1, -DPA1 (reverse primer), and -DPB1 (reverse primer) were designed in-house, while a combination of previously described locus-specific primers (Shiina et al., 2012 (link); Hosomichi et al., 2013 (link); Ehrenberg et al., 2017 (link)) was used to amplify the other five genes (Supplementary Table S1). Each locus was amplified in 25 μL reaction volumes consisting of 50–250 ng of gDNA, 1x PrimeSTAR GXL Buffer, 0.625 U PrimeSTAR GXL Polymerase (Takara Bio Inc), 0.2 μM dNTPs and 0.08 mM of the respective forward and reverse primer mix using the PCR cycling conditions described in Supplementary Table S2. To confirm amplification, 2 μL of each PCR product were analyzed on 0.8% agarose gels.

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.
