Genomic DNA samples were extracted from individual taeniid proglottids using a DNeasy Blood & Tissue kits (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The complete cox1 gene (1,620 bp) was amplified by PCR using the primers Taenia trnW/F (5′-GTT ATG TTA GAC TAG ATG TTT TCA-3′ for the Taenia transfer RNA-Try gene) and Taenia rrnl/R (5′-TCC ACT AAG CAT AAT GCA AAA GGC-3′ for Taenia ribosomal RNA large subunit gene) [18 (link)]. TaKaRa Ex Taq (Hot Start version, Takara Bio, Shiga, Japan) was used as a DNA polymerase. PCR amplification consisted of an initial denaturation step of 98 °C for 30 s, followed by 35 cycles of 94 °C for 30 s, 58 °C for 30 s, 72 °C for 90 s, with a final cycle of 72 °C for 5 min. Amplicons were cleaned using ExoSAP-IT (Affimetrix/USB, Santa Clara, CA, USA) and used as templates for direct DNA sequencing. Samples for DNA sequencing were prepared using a BigDye Terminator Cycle Sequencing Ready Reaction kit (Life Technologies, Foster City, CA, USA) by primer walking and run on a 3730 × l DNA Analyzer (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA USA).

Targeted Sequencing and Mutation Validation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RTA (Real Time Analyses) software version 1.13.48 took data from the sequence raw images to Illumina’s BCL format binary files for base calls and quality scores. BCL files were converted to FASTQ files dimultiplexed by Illumina’s CASAVA pipeline version 1.8.2. We used the GATK (Genome Analysis Toolkit, Broad Institute, Cambridge, MA, USA) structured programming framework to obtain rich sets of data access patterns, base quality score recalibration, indel realignment, duplicate removal, and SNP and INDEL discovery [28 (link)]. To validate detected mutations, the LEP gene exon 3 encoding region (ENST00000308868.4) was amplified by PCR. The amplicon was purified by alkaline phosphatase and exonuclease I, and directly sequenced all along its length by the Sanger method [29 (link)]. Each person’s sequence was compared to the reference wild type sequence. Nucleotide numbering was begun at the first adenine (A) of the ATG start codon in position 1. In summary, the targeted amplicons of each sample were sequenced on MiSeq in 300 bp paired-end reads. The potential causative variants identified by targeted sequencing were confirmed by Sanger sequencing via the 3730 × l DNA Analyzer (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA).

Five gene regions; the rDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS), D1-D2 region of large subunit (LSU), partial β-tubulin (TUB), translation elongation factor 3 (TEF3) and ribosomal protein 60S L10 (L1) (RP60S) were amplified using the primers ITS4-ITS5, LR0R-LR5, TUB2Fd-TUB4Fd, EF3-3185F / EF3-3538R and 60S-908R / 60S506F, respectively (de Hoog et al. 2017; (link)Dukik et al. 2017) (link). PCRs were carried out as described by Stielow et al. (2015) (link). PCR products were visualized on 1.5% agarose gels and cycle-sequenced using Applied Biosystems BigDye Terminator version 3.1 (Thermo Fisher Scientific) after purification. Bidirectional sequencing was performed using a capillary electrophoresis system (3730×l DNA analyzer; Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, U.S.A.). Obtained sequences were manually inspected and stored in a BIOLOMICS database.

PCR was performed for candidate dependents, helpers, and other isolates using the general bacterial primers 27F (5’-AGAGTTTGATCMTGGCTCAG-3’) and 1492R (5’-GGTTACCTTGTTACGACTT-3’) to amplify the 16S rRNA gene. The PCR reaction mixture was 12.5 μL GoTaq Master Mix (Promega), 1 μL 10 μM 27F and 1492R primers (Operon), 9.5 μL Nuclease Free Water (Promega), and 1 μL of a colony resuspended in 100 μL sterilized distilled water. The amplification conditions were one cycle of 95 °C for 5 min; 30 cycles of 95 °C for 30 s, 55 °C for 30 s, 72 °C for 90 s; and finally one cycle of 72 °C for 7 min. Amplification of PCR reactions were confirmed using gel electrophoresis on a 0.8% agarose gel containing ethidium bromide. Successful PCRs were sequenced by Macrogen Corporation using the 27F and 1492R primers using the Applied Biosystems 3730×l DNA analyzer. Quality control for sequences was performed using DNA Baser (www.DnaBaser.com, version 4.36.0), in which ends were trimmed until there were more than 75% good bases (defined by having a QV score of higher than 25) in an 18 base window. Identification of phylogenetic neighbors and calculation of pairwise sequence similarity were done using the EZTaxon server (http://www.eztaxon.org). The phylogenic tree for KLE1738 was built using the Randomized Axelerated Maximum Likelihood (RAxML) method43 (link) via PATRIC44 (link) (version 3.5.23).

Three regions of VGSC were amplified and sequenced: (i) partial domain II (P to S6) using primers IIP_F and IIS6_R [26] (link), (ii) partial domain III (S4–S6) using primers Ge-IIIS6_F and IIIS6R [26] (link), and (iii) partial domain IV (S5–S6) using primers 5380F1 and 5380R1 [27] . PCR products were amplified, purified using QIaquick PCR purification kit (Qiagen Inc) and subjected to cycle sequencing reaction using BigDye Terminator v3.0. The termination products were run in Applied Biosystems 3730×l DNA Analyzer. Some of the sequencing reactions were performed at Macrogen Inc (South Korea). Sequencing chromatograms were edited using FinchTV ver 1.5.0 (Geospiza, Inc.). The PCR product of one sample, which was suspected to have an indel in the intron, was cloned in pGEM-T vector system using vendor's protocol and five clones were sequenced.

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.
