RNA was isolated from 5,000 to 10,000 DC previously facs-sorted into 40 μl of lysis buffer (Life Technologies). Dynabeads mRNA Direct Purification Kit (Life Technologies) was used following manufacturer's guidelines. RNA was reverse transcribed with High Capacity cDNA Transcription Kit (Applied Biosystems). PCR were performed with Platinum SYBR Green qPCR SuperMix (Life Technologies) and QuantStudio 6 Flex (Applied Biosystems). Quantification of the PCR signals of each sample was performed by comparing the cycle threshold values (Ct), in duplicate, of the gene of interest with the Ct values of the TBP housekeeping gene.

Comprehensive TCR Sequencing Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
mRNA was isolated using the Dynabeads mRNA DIRECT Purification Kit (Life Technologies) and was amplified using the MessageAmp II aRNA Amplification Kit (Ambion) with the following modifications: IVT was performed at 37 °C for 16 h. First, strand cDNA was synthesized using SuperScript III (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and a collection of TRAV/TRBV-specific primers. TCRs were then amplified by PCR (20 cycles with the Phusion from New England Biolabs) with a single primer pair binding to the constant region and the adapter linked to the TRAV/TRBV primers added during the reverse transcription. A second round of PCR cycle (25 cycles with the Phusion from New England Biolabs) was performed to add the Illumina adapters containing the different indexes. The TCR products were purified with AMPure XP beads (Beckman Coulter), quantified and loaded on the MiniSeq instrument (Illumina) for deep sequencing of the TCRα/TCRβ chain. The TCR sequences were further processed using ad hoc Perl scripts to (1) pool all TCR sequences coding for the same protein sequence; (2) filter out all out-frame sequences; and (3) determine the abundance of each distinct TCR sequence. TCR sequences with a single read were not considered for analysis.

For bulk RNA-seq analysis, 5,000 DC were facs-sorted into 1.7 ml LoBind microtubes (Eppendorf) containing 40 μl of lysis buffer (Life Technologies). RNA was captured with Dynabeads mRNA Direct Purification Kit (Life Technologies) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The RNA-seq protocol for the generation of libraries is a derivation of MARS-seq (36 (link)). RNA-seq libraries were sequenced using Illumina NexSeq-500, raw data were mapped to the genome (NCBI37/mm9) using HISAT (version 0.1.6) (57 (link)), only reads with unique mapping were considered. Gene expression levels were calculated using HOMER software package (analyzeRepeats.pl rna mm9 -d < tagDir> -count exons -condenseGenes -strand + -raw) (58 (link)). Normalization and differential expression analysis were done using the DESeq2 R-package (Bioconductor, https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/DESeq2.html) (59 (link)). Differentially expressed genes were selected using a 2-fold change and p-value < 0.05 (Figures 3B,D), or a 1.8-fold-change and p-value < 0.05 (Figures 4B,C) or p-value < 0.01(Figure 4D) between at least two conditions. Gene expression matrix was clustered using a k-means algorithm (Matlab function kmeans) with correlation as the distance metric. Heat maps were generated using Genee software.

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.
