Male flies for each genotype were collected at ZT16 (Zeitgeber Time, ZT0 indicates lights-on and ZT12 lights-off). Heads were isolated and subjected to total RNA isolation using TriReagent (MRC Inc., Irvine, CA, United States) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Brains were extracted from fixed heads at 100% ethanol for 2 h. The RNA quality and quantity were assessed using Nanodrop 2000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, MA, United States). cDNA was synthesized using a High Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Vilnus, Lithuania) with random primers according to the provider’s instruction. Gene expression was examined using StepOnePlus Real-Time PCR System and SYBR Green Master Mix (KAPA Biosystems, Cape Town, South Africa) in the presence of specific primer sequences (the specificity was controlled with Primer-BLAST and gel electrophoresis) for the target genes which are listed in Table 1. This entire procedure was followed in experiments analysing gene expression levels, which were repeated at least three times per genotype with approximately 20 fly heads for each replicate.

Temporal Expression Dynamics of Clu in Mouse Inner Ear

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was extracted from the inner ear of C57BL/6 wild-type mice using the RNeasy Mini kit (Tiangen, China). The RNase-free DNase set (Tiangen) was used to remove contaminated DNA. RNA concentration and purity were estimated via spectrophotometry by measuring the absorbance at 260 nm and 260/280 nm ratio, respectively. cDNA was synthesized from RNA using the High Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kit (KAPA BIOSYSTEMS, USA) and oligo-dT primers. Subsequently, qRT-PCR was performed to analyze Clu expression at postnatal days 3 (P3), 12 (P12), 30 (1 m), and 180 (6 m). Four mice per group/age were used. qRT-PCR primers were designed based on published reference sequences in the National Center for Biotechnology Information database (NM_013492.3). qRT-PCR was performed using the KAPA SYBR®FAST qPCR Kit Master Mix (2X) Universal (KAPA BIOSYSTEMS) on a StepOnePlus Real-Time PCR System. Each sample was run in triplicate along with the housekeeping gene, GAPDH. Relative quantities of the transcripts were determined using 2−△△CT method using GAPDH as a reference.

We generated the p.Cys132Arg and p.Cys154fs variant CBX2.2s by site directed mutagenesis of wild‐type cDNA (Origene), according to the manufacture's manual (Quickchange II Site‐Directed Mutagenesis Kit; Agilent).
The influence of WT and CBX2.2 variants on the expression of selected candidate genes was studied by means of quantitative real‐time PCR, performed with ABI StepOnePlus Real‐Time PCR system, PCR products were quantified fluorometrically using the KAPA SYBR FAST master mix (KAPA Biosystems, Wilmington, Massachusetts, USA). The reference mRNA from cyclophilin was used for data normalization. Primers sequence and qRT‐PCR conditions for CBX2 isoforms and putative targets are available upon request. All samples were run in triplicates and finally the normalized relative expression values (2ΔΔCt) of multiple independent experiments were plotted against the relative expression values of the empty vector which was set as 1. Unpaired t‐test was performed using GraphPad Prism version 6.07 for Windows (GraphPad Software, La Jolla, California, USA).

Quantitative RT-PCR Analysis Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The qPCR reactions were performed by using an Applied Biosystems StepOnePlus Real-Time PCR System with KAPA SYBER FAST qPCR Master Mix. All the real-time values were averaged and compared using the threshold cycle (CT) method, in which the amount of target RNA (2 − ΔΔCT) was normalized against the endogenous expression of ODC (ornithine decarboxylase) (ΔCT). The qPCR reactions were performed when RT-PCR reaction results need to be quantified (Fig. s1). The confirmed data as elsewhere published data (vent1.1)57 (link) was not repeated. All qPCR reactions were repeated three time using independent samples to present data with standard deviations and statistical significance.

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.
