Ligating T7 Promoter to Precursor 1

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To ligate the complementary sequence of the T7 promoter to the 3′-end of precursor 1, 1 pmol of precursor 1 and 100 pmol of a 5′-phosphorylated ss oligonucleotide corresponding to the reverse complement of the T7 promoter (T7 linker) were mixed in a 20 µL volume containing 1× T4 RNA Ligase reaction buffer (NEB), 1 mM ATP (NEB), 25% (w/v) PEG 8000 (NEB), and 10 units of T4 RNA Ligase 1 (NEB). To prevent formation of concatemers, the T7 linker contained a 3′ chain terminator (2′,3′-dideoxycytosine). The reaction and negative control were incubated at 22°C overnight. Ligation of the two oligonucleotides was confirmed by gel electrophoresis (Supplemental Fig. S8). Ligation reaction was ethanol precipitated and the product (precursor 1-T7) was gel-purified using TE buffer.

DNA template [up to 10 pmol, either in solution or immobilized on MyOne Streptavidin C1 magnetic beads (ThermoFisher Scientific)], polymerization initiation and termination primers (1.5 equivalents each relative to template), functionalized trinucleotide building blocks (10 equivalents relative to template for each occurrence of the corresponding codon) and 10x T4 RNA ligase reaction buffer (New England Biolabs; 1 μL) were mixed in a total volume of 8 μL in a PCR tube. The mixture was subjected to the following temperature program on a thermocycler: 95 °C for 10 sec; 65 °C for 4 min; a ramp from 65 °C to 4 °C at 0.1 °C per 10 s. To the PCR tube were added 1 μL of 10 mM ATP and 1 μL of T3 DNA ligase (New England Biolabs). The reaction was incubated at 4 °C for 12 h and then at 16 °C for 2 h.

Reducing RNA Fragmentation Background in Pseudouridine Mapping

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The CMC reaction and the reversal steps can cause RNA fragmentation, resulting in elevated background signals and false-positive results. In order to reduce background signal at target sites, a “blocking” RNA ligation step is added in our method. The ligated 5-mer RNA oligonucleotide interrupts the splint ligation by fragmented RNA at target Ψ site and reduces background. Ligation of this blocking 5-mer RNA requires a 5’ phosphate of the CMC-induced fragment; therefore 5’ phosphorylation is first carried out before ligation.

To 6 μg +CMC treated or 4 μg −CMC treated total RNA in 6.5 μl, add 1μl 10X T4 PNK reaction buffer (B0201S, NEB), 1 μl 1 mM ATP, 0.5 μl RNase inhibitor (M0307L, NEB), and 1 μl 10 U/μl T4 PNK (M0201L, NEB) to each tube and mix.

Incubate samples at 37°C for 30 min, followed by a quick spin.

Add 1 μl 10×T4 RNA Ligase Reaction Buffer (B0216L, NEB), 1 μl 100 μM 5’ RNA blocker oligo (/5AmMC6/rArCrCrCrA, IDT), 1 μl 1 mM ATP, 1 μl RNase inhibitor, 3 μl DMSO, 2 μl sterile water, and 1 μl 10 U/μl T4 RNA ligase I (M0204L, NEB).

Incubate the reaction mixtures at 16°C for 16 hours.

Add 1.2 μl 200 mM EDTA to each tube to stop the reaction.

In vitro transcribed RNase E 5’ UTR (4.5 μM) was incubated with 33 μM of pCp Cy5 (Jena Bioscience #NU-1706-CY5) in a total reaction volume of 100 μL consisting of 50 units of T4 RNA ligase 1 (NEB #M0204S), 1mM ATP, 10% DMSO1, 1X T4 RNA ligase reaction buffer (NEB #B0216S) for 16 hours at 16°C. Following the reaction, T4 RNA ligase 1 was heat inactivated at 65°C for 15 minutes and the reaction mixture was subjected to Phenol-Chloroform extraction to remove the enzyme. The unincorporated pCp Cy5 was removed by passing the labeled RNA through Sephadex G-50 column (Cytiva # 28903408) and eluted in nuclease free water.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Inverted RT-PCR was performed on circularized total RNA extracted from 5 days post-fertilisation (dpf) WT and rcl1hi2452 mutant embryos, as described previously (32 (link)). Briefly, 5 μg total RNA and T4 RNA Ligase Reaction Buffer (New England Biolabs, M0204S) in a total volume of 15 μl were first incubated for 4 min at 75°C, followed by rapid freezing in pre-cooled ethanol at −80°C for 1 min. Frozen samples were then placed on ice to thaw slowly before PEG8000 was added. Subsequently, ATP, RNase inhibitor (New England Biolabs, M0314) and 2μl T4 RNA Ligase 1 (New England Biolabs, M0204S) were added to yield a final reaction volume of 20 μl according to the manufacturer's instructions. The reaction mixture was incubated at 25°C for 2 h and then boiled for 2 min to terminate the reaction. The circularized total RNA was purified using RNeasy MinElute Cleanup Kit (QIAGEN, 74204) and then subjected to reverse transcription (RT) using Reverse Transcriptase M-MLV (RNase H-) (Takara, 2641A) with random primers. The cDNA was used as the template for RT-PCR with the primer pairs 18S-R1 and 18S-F1 (P1), 18S-R1 and 18S-F2 (P2), 18S-R2 and 18S-F1 (P3), and 18S-R1 and 28S-F (P0) (Supplementary Table S1). The PCR products were ligated into the pGEM-T Easy Vector (Promega, A1360) and single colonies were picked for sequencing.

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.
