DNA templates used for RNAse protection and in vitro transcription reactions were prepared using primers appended to the T7 promoter, and cloned into pCR2.1 vector (Thermofisher). Transcription reactions were performed on EcoRI digested fragments (New England Biolab), using the MAXIscript T7 kit (Ambion), in presence of 10 μCi of 32P-UTP (Perkin Elmer), and purified by G-50 columns (Illustra Probe-Quant, GE Healthcare). Labeled transcripts were re-natured in TE buffer for 2 min at 95 ºC and then placed on ice. Re-natured transcript (1 μl) was pre-incubated on ice for 12 min in HLA/Terasaki plate in 7 μl reaction with 5 μl of 2x RPA buffer (20 mM Tris pH 8.0, 100 mM NaCl, 1.5 mM MgCl2, 1.6 mM DTT, 5% glycerol), 0.5 μl of tRNA (10mg/ml, baker’s yeast; Roche), and 22 μM (+) and 36 μM (++) of GST-purified protein. After 30 min of UV crosslinking, the samples were digested at 37ºC for 20 min with 1 μl of freshly prepared RNase A solution comprising 4 μl RNase A (Qiagen, 7,500U/μl, 100 mg/ml) and 0.8 μl of 5x RNase A buffer (100 mM Tris pH 7.0, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 M KCl, and 1.2 μl of ddH2O). Samples were denatured with 2 μl of loading buffer for 2 min at 95ºC, resolved by SDS-PAGE and visualized using a Fuji BAS-2500 phosphoimager plate reader.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Custom RNA in situ hybridization probes were developed to detect the full-length E6/E7 mRNA sequence of MmuPV1 by Advanced Cell Diagnostics for use with their RNAscope assay kit. CISH was performed according to the manufacturer's instructions for RNAscope2.0 as previously described (37 (link)). Briefly, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) mouse tail tissue sections were pretreated with heat and protease prior to hybridization with the probe. If treated with RNase A (Qiagen), slides were incubated for 30 min at room temperature with RNase A in PBS (10 mg/ml). Slides were subsequently washed three times in diethyl pyrocarbonate (DEPC)-treated water for 5 min per wash. To ensure RNA integrity and assay procedures, adjacent sections were also hybridized with a probe for the endogenous housekeeping gene ubiquitin and the bacterial gene dapB (negative control). After washing, a horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-based amplification system was then used to detect the target probes, followed by color development with 3,3′-diaminobenzidine (DAB).

Cytoplasmic, nucleoplasmic and benzonase-treated soluble CB fractions were prepared as described37 (link), except that N-ethylmalemide (40 mM) was included in the hypotonic lysis buffer to inhibit endogenous SUMO proteases and stabilize SUMO conjugates. The RNase A-sensitive soluble chromatin fraction (CB:RNA+) was prepared by digesting the chromatin pellet in RNase A buffer (50 mM Tris, pH 7.4, 10 mM EDTA, 150 mM NaCl, 10% glycerol, protease and phosphotease inhibitor) containing 250 μg ml−1 RNase A (Qiagen). After the supernatant (CB:RNA+ fraction) was collected, the pellet was further resuspended in nuclease incubation buffer (150 mM HEPES, pH 7.9, 1.5 mM MgCl2, 150 mM KCl, 10% glycerol, protease and phosphotease inhibitors) containing 0.15U μl−1 benzonase (Novagen). The sample was cleared by centrifugation at 20,000g for 30 min, and the supernatant was collected as CB:RNA+ fraction. For immunopurification of the FLAG-tagged protein complexes, extracts were incubated overnight with M2 agarose (Sigma) at 4 °C. After binding of the protein complexes, beads were washed extensively with and stored in FLAG-A-binding buffer (10 mM HEPES, pH 7.9, 1.5 mM MgCl2, 0.25 M NaCl, 10 mM KCl, 0.2% Triton X-100 and 10% glycerol)37 (link).

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.
