Total RNA from minigenome assay cells was extracted with TRIzol (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Five microgram of total RNA was digested with RQ1 DNase (Promega) for 1 h at 37°C. The RNA samples were electrophoresed for 1 h at 100 V in a 1× MOPS and 6% formaldehyde agarose gel and transferred to Hybond-N+ membrane (GE Healthcare Life Sciences). Probes specific for genomic and RI RNAs (Table 1) were labeled with 32P ATP using T4 Polynucleotide Kinase (Promega). Membranes were prehybridized for 1 h in PerfectHyb Plus Buffer (Sigma-Aldrich), and probe was added and hybridized overnight at 45°C for genomic and 55°C for RI, respectively. Membranes were exposed to phosphor screen overnight, imaged on GE Typhoon FLA 9500 variable mode imager and quantified with ImageQuant software (GE Healthcare). Signal was normalized to VP35(-) sample for the genomic probe and normalized to wt sample for the RI probe.

Total RNA was extracted using TRIzol® Reagent (Invitrogen, USA). For detection of viral genomic RNA and mRNA of BBSV and its sat-RNA, 2 μg total RNA extracted from mock or virus-infected plants was used for hybridization using indicated gene-specific 32P-radiolabled cDNA probes corresponding to the 3′UTR fragment of BBSV or the full-length sat-RNA, respectively as described (Xu et al., 2012 (link)). For small RNA gel blots, 10 μg total RNA were separated on 17% denaturing polyacrylamide gel (PAGE) and transferred to nylon membranes (GE Healthcare, UK). DNA oligonucleotides corresponding to the sequences of BBSV (nt 155–176, nt 769–788, nt 823–842, nt 1259–1278, nt 1762–1781, nt 2020–2039, nt 2266–2287, and nt 3115–3134) or sat-RNA (nt 132–152, nt 395–416 and nt 506–527) were synthesized respectively. The mixtures of antisense oligonucleotides corresponding to BBSV and sat-RNA were labeled with [γ-32P] ATP as probes used for hybridization at 40°C for 16–20 h in PerfectHyb plus buffer (Sigma-Aldrich). The membranes were washed in 2 × SSC (0.3 M NaCl and 0.03 M sodium citrate) containing 0.2% SDS for 30 min and then twice with 1 × SSC containing 0.1% SDS for 20 min both at 50°C.

Total RNA was extracted from Arabidopsis inflorescences using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen) and size-fractionated as described in (53 (link)). Then, 9 μg low molecular weight RNA was resuspended in 8 μl RNA Loading Buffer (95% formamide, 0.025% bromophenol blue, 0.025% xylene cyanol FF, 5 mM EDTA, 0.025% SDS, pH 8.5). Samples were heated to 95°C for 3 min and separated on an 16% polyacrylamide gel. RNA loading was documented using Ethidium bromide gel staining followed by UV transillumination. Size-separated RNAs were transferred to a nylon membrane (Hybond-N+, GE Healthcare) by electroblotting and UV cross-linked (140 mJ/cm2). Different 32P 5′-end-labeled DNA oligonucleotides were used for successive hybridizations in PerfectHyb Plus Buffer (Sigma) overnight at 35–40°C, depending on the probe. The membrane was washed three times for 20 min in Wash Buffer (0.3 M NaCl, 30 mM sodium acetate, 0.5% SDS, pH 7.0), exposed to a phosphor-imager screen for 3 days, then the screen was scanned using a Typhoon Multimode-imager (GE Healthcare). Each probe was stripped with boiling 0.1% SDS (two times, 20 min) prior to the next hybridization (see Supplementary Table S1 for probe sequences).

High molecular weight (HMW) and low molecular weight (LMW) total RNA was isolated for gel blot analysis as described previously (Mlotshwa et al., 2005). For mRNA gel blot analysis, 5 µg of HMW RNA was run on formaldehyde denaturing agarose gels; and for siRNA gel blot analysis, 10 µg of LMW RNA was run on 20% polyacrylamide/7 M urea denaturing gels. The resolved RNA (HMW or LMW) was blotted onto Amersham hybond‐N+ membranes (GE Healthcare) and hybridized with RNA probes. PDS probes were derived from cDNA fragments corresponding to the maize PDS mRNA sequence (GenBank Accession # NM_001352010.1; nt 1493–1612 and 1613–1732 for siRNAs and mRNA probes, respectively). LSP probes were derived from cDNA fragments corresponding to the maize LSP mRNA sequence (NCBI sequence NM_001175829; nt 1217–1426 and 1427–1651 for siRNAs and mRNA probes, respectively). The respective cDNA fragments were PCR‐appended with a T7 promoter at the 3′‐ or 5′‐end to make RNA probes to detect mRNAs or antisense siRNAs, respectively. The [α‐32P]UTP‐labeled RNA probes were synthesized using the MAXIscript T7 in vitro transcription kit (Invitrogen) and hybridized to mRNA blots at 68°C, or to siRNA blots at 42°C in PerfectHyb Plus buffer (Sigma). The siRNA sizes were based on Decade molecular weight RNA markers (Invitrogen) labeled with gamma‐32P‐ATP.

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.
