For genomic DNA sequencing, cells were lyzed in lysis buffer (50 mM Tris, pH = 8.0, 20 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1% SDS) with proteinase K. DNA was extracted using phenol-chloroform isoamylalcool (ref. P2069, Sigma) and isopropanol (ref. 59309-1L, Sigma). For cDNA sequencing, RNA was extracted using the miRNA Micro Kit (QIAGEN) and reverse transcription was performed using the SuperScript ® VILO cDNA Synthesis Kit (ref. 11754–250, Invitrogen). The region encompassing the mutation was amplified by PCR using 5 or 4 sets of primers for the genomic DNA and cDNA, respectively (Supplementary Table S1) and the Kapa2G polymerase (KAPA 2G Robust HotStart PCR Kits, ref. KK5517, Clinisciences). PCR products were run on agarose gels and purified using phosphatase (FastAP, ref. EF0651, ThermoScientific) and exonuclease enzymes (Exonuclease I, EN0581, ThermoScientific). Controls were performed in the absence of reverse transcriptase. Sequencing was performed using the BigDye®TerminatorV3.1 cycle sequencing and purifications kits (ref. 4337455,4376484, ThermoFisher).

RNA was isolated as modified from previous studies (Gumucio et al., 2014 (link); Grinstein et al., 2018 (link); Disser et al., 2019 (link)). Tendons were finely minced and then pulse homogenized in Qiazol (Qiagen, Germantown, MD, USA) containing 1μg of glycogen (Qiagen) using a TissueRuptor (Qiagen). RNA was isolated with an miRNA Micro Kit (Qiagen) supplemented with DNase I (Qiagen), and quality was assessed using a BioAnalyzer RNA Pico kit (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA).

miRNA Isolation and Amplification

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNA isolation was performed using the miRNA micro kit (Qiagen) according to the manual. On a column, DNase I treatment was applied to degrade DNA. 14 μl of nuclease-free water were added to elute the RNA fractions, which were used immediately or stored at −80 °C. Due to the low amounts of RNA, RNA amplification was carried out using the Ovation® PicoSL WTA SystemV2 (Nugen). The amplification process was done according to the manual using 50 ng total RNA.

Hippocampal RNA Extraction and Sequencing

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNA extraction from dorsal hippocampus was performed using the RNeasy Lipid Tissue Mini Kit (Qiagen). Total cDNA was synthesized using High-Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kits (Applied Biosystems, USA). For reverse transcription, it was used 200 ng of total RNA from each sample. A solution-phase assay was carried out (Applied Biosystems). Small RNA extraction was done using the miRNA Micro Kit (Qiagen), and the checking of RNA purity and integrity was performed with NanoDrop (Thermo Fisher) and Bioanalyzer (Agilent), respectively. The preparation of the small RNA library required several enzymatic steps to include in the final library only the small RNA fragments. Sequencing of multiplexed libraries was performed in the NextSeq 500 equipment (Illumina).

Transcriptome Analysis of Muscle Biopsies

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was extracted from 5–10 mg of muscle biopsies from the same participants described above using miRNA micro kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) as per the manufacturer’s protocol, with additional DNase treatment. All RNA samples with RNA integrity number RIN ≥7 (Bioanalyser, Agilent Technologies, Germany), were selected for microarray analysis. Transcriptome analysis was carried out by Oaklabs (Berlin, Germany) on their experimentally validated ArrayXS Human (design ID 079407, Agilent 60-mer SurePrint technology, Agilent Technologies). Gene ontology analysis was performed using David data base tools71 (link), with cutoff enrichment score set above 1.7 and enriched p value < 0.05 (Fisher test).

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.
