Reagents were obtained and used as received. DNA templates and primers were obtained from Integrated DNA Technologies. The RNA oligonucleotide competitors and precursor RNAs, obtained from Dharmacon, were 2′-ACE-protected (where ACE is 2′-bis(acetoxyethoxy)-methyl ether) and were deprotected according to the manufacturer’s protocol. All RNAs were desalted using PD10 Sephadex (GE Healthcare) columns by first pre-equilibrating the column with 25 ml water, then loading the RNA and eluting with 10 ml water, collecting 1 ml fractions. Autoradiography images were obtained using a Typhoon 9410 variable mode imager (GE Healthcare) and quantified using Quantity One (Bio-Rad) software. All UV-vis measurements for RNA quantification were obtained using a Beckman Coulter DU800 UV-vis spectrophotometer by heating the RNA to 90 °C and measuring the absorption at 260 nm. Complementary DNA (cDNA) samples were quantified using an Agilent Technologies 2100 Bioanalyzer (Model: G1939A) and an Invitrogen Qubit 2.0 Fluorimeter. Subsequent sequencing was carried out on a Life Technologies Ion Proton sequencer with at least 200-fold coverage. EGM-2 Bullet Kit tissue culture medium obtained from Lonza (CC-3162) was used to grow HUVECs directly. All cells were cultured at 37°C in 5% CO2 in 100-mm-diameter dishes unless stated otherwise.

Messenger RNA (mRNA) from flash‐frozen liver was extracted with the miRNeasy mini kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA). mRNA were quantified using the Infinite M200 Pro (Tecan, Morrisville, NC) and quality determined with the 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA). Novogene (Sacramento, CA) prepared the sequencing libraries with the NEBNext Ultra RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina (NEB, Ipswich, MA). Libraries were validated with the 2100 Bioanalyzer and quantified with a Qubit 2.0 Fluorometer (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) and by qRT‐PCR (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA). Sequencing was performed on a NovaSeq 6000 (Illumina) with a 2 × 150 paired‐end configuration. Raw sequence data were converted into fastq files and de‐multiplexed using Illumina’s bcl2fastq software. Sequences were quality‐checked using FastQC and aligned to the HG38 reference genome using STAR aligner. HTSeq‐count was used to generate raw counts per gene. Differentially expressed genes between groups were determined using DESeq2. Genes with adjusted P values, or false discovery rates, <0.05 were considered significantly differentially expressed. The data have been deposited in NCBI's Gene Expression Omnibus and are accessible through GEO Series accession number GSE181803.

For subsequent CTC single cell WGS, a single CTC from each patient was microdissected using PALM MicroBeam equipment (Zeiss) and placed into a tube. Based on the multiple annealing and looping-based amplification cycles (MALBAC) technique, the single-cell whole genome sequencing kit (Yikon Genomics, China) was used to perform single-cell WGS.19 (link) Followed by sequencing MALBAC at 25x mean sequencing depth, amplified DNA reaches 93% genome coverage ≥1x for a single CTC cell.19 (link) The molecular weight of the amplified DNA product was examined using a Qubit® dsDNA HS Assay kit in a Qubit 3.0 Fluorometer (Life Technologies, USA), and the amplified DNA product’s genomic integrity was confirmed using quantitative PCR (qPCR) using eight randomly chosen loci. DNA samples were deemed to fulfill the further sequencing requirements if their overall mass was more than 2μg and their DNA fragment sizes ranging from 300 bp to 2000 bp.
Following the SureSelectXT Illumina Paired-End Sequencing Library procedure, the library was prepared. The 2100 Bioanalyzer and qPCR using TBS380 picogreen (Invitrogen, USA) were used to evaluate the quality of the library. Illumina’s Next Seq CN500 High-throughput Sequencer has been used to sequence the whole genomes of the captured single cells.

2.5-month-old Atad3 nKO male mice and control littermates were transcardially perfused with ice-cold PBS. Cortex tissues were dissected fast frozen and used for Total RNA extraction (5 biological replicates per group). Following RNA extraction using TRIZOL, samples were treated with Turbo ™ DNase (Invitrogen) and RNA concentration and Quality control RIN (RNA Integrity Number) values were measured using the 2100 Bioanalyzer. RNA-Seq libraries were prepared using Illumina TruSeq Stranded Total RNA Library Prep Gold with a modified RNA fragmentation time of 6 minutes, but otherwise according to manufacturer’s instructions. RNA sample RIN ranged from 6.4–9.1. Input amounts were 250 ng based on sample concentration. All samples were subjected to 10 PCR amplification cycles. Libraries were balanced for pooling using fragment analysis (Agilent 5200) and DNA quantitation (Qubit). The library pool was sequenced on an Illumina NovaSeq 6000 on an S1 flow cell as 2x 100 bp reads. Base calling and demultiplexing was performed in BaseSpace® using default bcl2fastq parameters. RNA Sequencing data was analyzed using Illumina BaseSpace® application tools which included the Illumina TopHat Alignment, Cufflinks Assembly and Differential Expression analysis using DESeq2 normalization. GO term analysis enrichment was done using the DAVID functional annotation tool.

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.
