The 30-mL urine samples were collected and centrifuged to obtain urine pellets. After being resuspended in PBS, the DNA from urine pellets was extracted by using a chemagic DNA Stool Kit (PerkinElmer) with a modified pretreatment bead-beating step. The 16S library was constructed on the basis of the prepared DNA samples and analyzed by using the NEXTFLEX 16S V4 Amplicon-Seq Library Prep Kit (Bioo Scientific). Paired-end sequencing was performed with the MiSeq Reagent Kit v2 Nano and the Illumina MiSEq 2000 high-throughput DNA sequencing service in April 2013. Cluster generation, sequencing, and analysis were all performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. QIIME 2 microbiome analysis package was used to perform the bioinformatic analysis. Taxonomy classification used naïve Bayesian classifiers trained with the Reference Sequence databases.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In silico prediction of putative off-target sites was performed using Cas-OFFinder with a query sequence of TAACAAGCAGAGCAGCACAC and an NGG protospacer adjacent motif, allowing for up to three mismatches between the query sequence and genomic off-target site. Genomic DNA extracted from ABE-treated (n = 3) and mock (n = 3) HDFs was PCR amplified with Taq RED (Apex Bioresearch Products) using site-specific primers (Table S2), generating fewer than 250 bp amplicons. Amplified DNA was electrophoresed on 0.7% agarose gels in TAE buffer, size selected, and gel purified using the Zymoclean Gel DNA Recovery Kit (Zymo Research). Amplicons were library prepped using the NEBNext Ultra II DNA Library Prep kit (New England Biolabs), according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Size selection of adaptor-ligated DNA was performed using AMPure XP beads (Beckman Coulter) using a bead/sample ratio of 0.7×. Adaptor-ligated DNA was enriched using universal and index primers, as per manufacturer’s protocol, with five PCR cycles. Libraries were run paired end on a MiSeq (Illumina) using the MiSeq Reagent Kit v2 Nano (Illumina) with 500 cycles generating more than 18,000 NGS reads/index primer, more than 1,000× reads/sample. One or both read files (.fastq) were analyzed using CRISPResso2 (Figure S10).25 (link)

CRISPR-Cas9 Off-Target Mutation Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Amplicon sequencing was performed using MiSeq (Illumina, Japan) and MiSeq Reagent Kit v2 Nano (Illumina, Japan) was used for analysis. Genomic DNAs were used to amplify the region of the CRISPR-Cas9 target sites or off-target sequences by PCR. One off-target candidate sequence (SL2.50 ch6:26946923-26946946) was selected by Cas-OT to examine the mutation. PCR products were separated by electrophoresis, purified from the agarose gel using the Wizard SV Gel and PCR Clean-Up System (Promega, Japan), and used as templates for a second round of PCR. Second PCR was performed using TruSeq HT primer (Illumina, Japan). All primers used for PCR are listed in Supplementary Table S1. MiSeq data were analyzed using CLC Genomics Workbench software version 7.5.1 (CLC bio, Japan) and mapped on the off-target candidate using Integrative Genomics Viewer (IGV; Broad Institute).

Phage DNA Extraction and Library Preparation

The purified phage sample (300 µL) was treated with 50 μg of proteinase K (20 mg/mL; ThermoFisher, Wlatham, MA, USA) and with an addition of SDS (Sigma-Aldrich) up to a 0.5% of final concentration before being incubated for an hour at +56 °C and subjected to DNA extraction using Genomic DNA Clean & Concentrator-10 (Zymo Research, Irvine, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer’s guidelines.
To prepare the input for the NGS library, 200 ng of phage DNA was randomly physically sheared using Covaris S220 focused-ultrasonicator (Covaris, Woburn, MA, USA) with a target fragment length of 550 bp. Fragmented DNA was used as an input for barcoded TruSeq DNA Nano Low Throughput Library Prep Kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA) as per the manufacturer’s reference guide using adapter 7 from TruSeq DNA Single Indexes Set A (Illumina). The quality and quantity of the final library were verified using an Agilent 2100 bioanalyzer (Agilent, Santa Clara, CA, USA) with a high Sensitivity DNA kit (Agilent) and Qubit fluorometer (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) dsDNA high-sensitivity quantification assay (Invitrogen). Library sequencing was carried out on the Illumina MiSeq system (Illumina) using a 500-cycle MiSeq Reagent Kit v2 nano (Illumina) as one of the 12 pooled differently barcoded libraries.

Purified gDNA was quantified by Qubit (Thermo Fisher). All gDNA was sheared to ~350 bp using a Covaris sonicator before SPRI purification (Beckman, 1.2x). DNA was then end repaired with NEBNext Ultra End Prep Kit. The four DNA libraries were separately ligated with IDT xGen Y-shaped adapters containing either all 5mC (used in BS-Seq) or all 5pyC (used in A3A workflows including DM-Seq, custom synthesis from IDT) modifications using an NEBNext Ultra II Prep Kit, purified by SPRI beads (Beckman, 1.2X), and then re-quantified by Qubit. DNA was stored in the −20°C freezer after this step. All libraries, regardless of deamination method, are quantified (Qubit) and characterized by BioAnalyzer (High Sensitivity Kit, Agilent) before sequencing. Sequencing was performed using a MiSeq Reagent Kit v2 Nano (Illumina) except for human glioblastoma tumor libraries.

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.
