High-throughput SHAPE-MaP protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Our modified high-throughput SHAPE-MaP protocol was performed on a Tecan Freedom Evo. We purchased mRNA clones of TPT1 and LCP1 (Origene—SC323772 and SC118739) and designed primers to introduce variants into select regions (Supplemental Table S6). Site-directed mutagenesis was performed with an NEB Q5 Site-Directed Mutagenesis Kit, but without customary transformation or cloning. Instead, we PCR-amplified the site-directed target after ligation using primers spanning the entire mRNA; the forward primer included a T7 promoter (NEB Q5 Hotstart). Ampure bead purification was performed to purify the DNA (Beckman Coulter—Ampure XP). Then we performed in vitro transcription with the T7 Polymerase to synthesize RNA (NEB T7 Polymerase). To remove DNA, the sample was treated with TurboDNAse for 15 min at 37°C (ThermoFisher Scientific TurboDNAse Kit). Ampure bead purification was performed to purify the RNA (Beckman Coulter—RNAClean XP). To fold the RNA, samples were incubated at 37°C for 10 min in buffer containing 100 mM Na-HEPES, pH 8.0, 100 mM NaCl, and 10 mM MgCl2. The RNA was incubated for 5 min at 37°C with 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or with 10 mM 1-methyl-7-nitroisatoic anhydride (1M7) in DMSO. Ampure bead purification was performed to purify the modified RNA (Beckman Coulter—RNAClean XP).

Example 2

RNA was purified using the above exemplary protocol with binding buffers B1 at varying pH (4.3 and 6.3) and varying RNA concentrations (20 μg RNA dissolved in 20 μl or in 200 μg solution). The same sample was also purified using the Agencourt® RNAClean XP kit by Beckman Coulter. The relative total RNA yield for each method was quantified and is presented in FIG. 4. The relative total RNA yield for the inventive methods employing a binding buffer at pH 4.3 was improved as compared to methods employing a binding buffer at pH 6.3. Additionally, the relative total RNA yield for inventive methods employing 20 μg/20 μl RNA was improved as compared to methods employing 20 μg/200 μl RNA.

FIG. 5 demonstrates the agarose gel electrophoresis analysis of the RNA samples for the various methods, illustrating that the quality of RNA produced by inventive methods employing a binding buffer at pH 4.3 was reduced as compared to inventive methods employing a binding buffer at pH 6.3. FIGS. 4-5 thus demonstrate that the inventive methods, which were carried out in about 20 minutes, provide RNA yield and/or quality that is improved over or comparable to that of the benchmark comparative Agencourt® kit.

DNA templates that carried the wild or mutated crcZ (339 bp), crcY (315 bp), oprB (1254 bp), gltR (761 bp), zwf (1486 bp), citN (1344 bp), benR (984 bp), and nifH (882 bp) were synthesized by Sangon Biotech Co. All the synthesized DNA templates were sequenced to assure the absence of undesired mutations. For in vitro transcription from synthesized templates, the T7 High Yield RNA Transcription Kit (Vazyme) was used according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The resulting ssRNA oligonucleotides were purified by the RNAClean XP (Beckman Coulter Inc.) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The purified Crc and Hfq proteins were labelled with a Monolith NTTM Protein labelling kit RED-NHS according to the manufacturer’s instructions (No. MO-L011, NanoTemper Technologies). For the measurements, the concentration of the labelled Hfq (20 nM) or Crc (200 nM) proteins was kept constant, while the concentrations of non-labelled ssRNA oligonucleotides varied from 0.3 μM to 10 μM. The dissociation constants (Kd) were calculated.91 (link) Data analyses were performed with NanoTemper Analysis software (NanoTemper Technologies).

Synthetic HDV RNA Generation and Extraction

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The target gene fragments of HDV were synthesized and cloned into the pUC57 vector (Biomed Biotechnology, Beijing China). Synthetic DNA targets with a forward primer that contained a T7 promoter sequence were transcribed in vitro to generate synthetic RNA targets. The product was used as the template using the HiScribe T7 High Yield RNA Synthesis Kit (New England Biolabs, USA) at 37°C overnight.
The transcribed RNA was then treated with RNase-free DNase I (Qiagen, Germany) to remove any remaining DNA according to the manufacturer’s instructions. RNA was purified using RNA Clean XP (Beckman Coulter, USA), quantified by Nanodrop and Qubit and diluted in nuclease-free water to working concentrations. HDV RNA was extracted from 200 µl plasma samples using an automated nucleic acid extraction system (Bioteke, China) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
According to previous studies, thermal shock was used to disrupt the secondary structure of HDV RNA, that is, 10 µL of HDV RNA at 95°C for 10 min, immediately followed by cooling to −80°C [22 (link),23 (link)].

Primer Pair Validation for eRPA Assays

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Four N gene forward primers (JQ217, CCMS041, CCMS047, and CCMS051) were paired with the reverse primer JQ224. These four primer pairs as well as JQ217 + JQ223 were used in eRPA assays with a water-only sample input. eRPA assays were incubated at 42 °C for 10 min. Amplification products were cleaned up using RNA Clean XP (Beckman Coulter) at 2.5× concentration and eluted in 20 µL of nuclease-free water. Purified products were cloned using the Zero Blunt TOPO PCR Cloning Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) according to the manufacturer’s instructions and Sanger sequenced. The identity of cloned products was determined by first aligning the sequences to the vector sequence using Samtools (v1.9) with an allowed multimapping of k = 10,000. The sam files were then visualized in IGV (v2.6.2) where the direction, sequence, and copy number of primer oligomers were manually annotated. In Table S2, the direction of the primer indicates a forward or reverse direction with respect to the vector, while the space sequence is the string of nucleotides between two primers. Overlap indicates the primers were overlapping with respect to the vector, “*” indicates there was no space between the primers, and listed nucleotides indicate the sequence between two primers.

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.
