The primers for the amplification of FGD1 (GenBank accession no. NM_004463.2) were designed using UCSC ExonPrimer online software (http://genome.ucsc.edu/index.html). The primers designed for exon 6 of FGD1 gene were as follows: Forward, 5-AACCCTAACCCCATTCCCTG-3 and reverse, 5-GCCCGGCTCTGATTCCTTTT-3. Both exons and exon-intron boundaries were amplified using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The reaction mixture for each amplification contained 1X Premix Taq (Ex Taq version 2.0; RR003; Takara Biotechnology Co., Ltd., Dalian, China), and reaction was carried out with the following PCR conditions: Initial denaturation at 95°C for 5 min, then 19 cycles of 95°C for 30 sec, 65°C for 30 sec and 72°C for 45 sec, followed by 14 cycles of 95°C for 30 sec, 55°C for 30 sec and 72°C for 45 sec, and a final elongation step at 72°C for 5 min using a C1000 Thermal Cycler PCR instrument (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Hercules, CA, USA). The products were examined on a 1% agarose gel and purified with a QIAquick Gel Extraction kit (Qiagen GmbH). The resulting DNA was sequenced using the ABI3730XL sequencer (Applied Biosystems; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., Waltham, MA, USA) with the forward and reverse primers. The sequence data was then analyzed using Mutation Surveyor® DNA Variant Analysis Software (version 4.0.4; SoftGenetics, LLC.).

PCR primers (IDT) were designed to flank the variant positions using Primer3 (Koressaar and Remm 2007 (link); Untergrasser et al. 2012 (link)). All primers are included in Supplemental Table S2. Amplification products for each sample were generated by 35 cycles of PCR using 20-ng template DNA. The products were purified and thermal cycled for 35 cycles of 96°C (20 sec), 50°C (5 sec), and 60°C (3 min) with an appropriately diluted BigDye Terminator v.3.1 Cycle Sequencing Kit (Life Technologies). Following incubation at 12°C, the products were purified over hydrated Sephadex G-50 (Sigma-Aldrich) in 45 micron Multiscreen HV filter plates (Merck Millipore). The eluted fluorescently tagged products were then detected on an ABI Prism 3130xl Genetic Analyzer (Life Technologies) using POP-7 Polymer on a 50-cm Array according to manufacturer's specifications. The data were then analyzed for variants using Mutation Surveyor DNA Variant Analysis Software (Softgenetics). In the current study, 9 out of 11 high confidence SNVs and 8 out of 19 low confidence SNVs were validated as somatic mutations. For validation of SVs, two sets of primers were designed spanning junction. Amplification of the novel amplicon with these primers sets was visualized on an ethidium bromide agarose gel and then sequenced to confirm breakpoints. We validated 12 out of the 13 putative SVs.

DNA was extracted from 10-µm cuts of FFPE tissues followed by microdissection. The DNA extraction kit (Citogene®, Citomed, Portugal) was used in accordance with manufacturer’s protocol. PCRs were performed with PromegaGoTaq® G2 Flexi DNA polymerase (Promega, Southampton, UK) and with the recommended settings. Sanger sequencing was achieved using the BigDye Terminator Kit (Perkin-Elmer, CA, USA) and with the fragments running in an ABI (Applied Biosystems) prism 3100 Genetic Analyzer (Perkin-Elmer, CA, USA). Independent PCR amplification and sequencing were performed for both positive and inconclusive (not confirmed as positive or negative) samples. Sequencing analysis targeted exons 1 and 2 of H-RAS and K-RAS. The sequencing reactions were performed in a sense direction for exon 1 and in anti-sense direction for exon 2. Mutations were evaluated and classified using the Mutation Surveyor DNA variant analysis software (Softgenetics, PA, USA) and were matched to reference control sequences from GenBank.

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.
