Pippin prep system

Manufactured by Sage Science
Sourced in United States

The Pippin Prep system is a DNA size-selection instrument designed to automate the process of isolating specific DNA fragment sizes from complex mixtures. It utilizes pulsed-field gel electrophoresis to separate DNA fragments based on their molecular weight, allowing users to extract the desired size range for downstream applications such as next-generation sequencing or PCR.

Cells were pre-treated with JQ1 (1 µM) or A-241 (250 nM) for 1 h prior to the addition of recombinant murine IFNy (1 ng/mL), or vehicle control, for an additional 2 h (3 h total incubation with small molecules). Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin using Sequencing (ATAC-seq) was performed using an improved protocol to reduce mitochondria from the transposition reaction [40 (link)]]. Briefly, 5e5 MM1.S cells were cultured in duplicate with JQ1, A-485, or DMSO vehicle as described above. Cells were washed once in ice-cold PBS and lysed in ATAC lysis buffer (0.1% Tween-20, 0.1% NP-40, 3 mM MgCl2, 10 mM NaCl, 10 mM Tris HCl pH 7.4). Tagmentation was then performed with Tn5 transposase and 2 × TD Buffer (Nextera DNA Library Prep Kit, Illumina) for 30 min at 37 °C (in a thermocycler). Tagmented DNA was immediately purified using a MinElute column (Qiagen, #28004) and then amplified for 12 cycles using 2 × KAPA HiFi HotStart ReadyMix (Kapa Biosystems, KK2602) and Illumina-compatible/barcoded primers. The amplified libraries were purified using MinElute columns (Qiagen) and sequenced on an Illumina NextSeq 500 with 75 b.p. single-end reads. Library QC and quantification were performed using D1000 high-sensitivity screen tape with 4200 TapeStation Instrument (Agilent Technologies), and the size was selected between 200 and 500 bp using a Pippin Prep system (Sage Science).

1 μl of each amplicon library was run on a Bioanalyzer HS DNA Chip to assess the amplicon size and quantified using a Qubit dsDNA HS assay. Each amplicon library was size selected according to the expected amplicon size (±50 bp) using a pre-cast 1.5 % agarose with ethidium bromide gel cassette on the Pippin Prep System (Sage Science). The library concentration for Illumina and 454 amplicon libraries was assessed using a SYBR green qPCR assay with primers specific to each platform (Kapa).

ASFV DNA was extracted from infected cells and quantified as described earlier9 (link). Full-length sequencing of the virus genome was performed as described elsewhere9 (link). Briefly, one microgram of virus DNA was enzymatically sheared and the resulting fragmented DNA size distribution was assessed. Adapters and library barcodes were ligated to the fragmented DNA. The appropriate size range of the adapter-ligated library was collected using the Pippin Prep™ system (Sage Science, Beverly, MA) followed by normalization of library concentration. The DNA library was then clonally amplified onto ISPs and enriched. Enriched template ISPs were prepared and loaded onto Ion chips for sequencing using an Ion Torrent PGM™ instrument. Sequence analysis was performed using Galaxy (https://usegalaxy.org/) and CLC Genomics Workbench (CLCBio, Waltham, MA).

RNA Sequencing of Size-Selected Tissue

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
One microgram of high-quality total RNA was used for RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) library construction using the TruSeq RNA Sample Preparation kit v2 (Illumina, San Diego, CA) with the following modification: one minute fragmentation time was applied to allow for longer RNA fragments. The obtained RNA-seq libraries were analyzed with the 2100 Bioanalyzer. The tissue sample described previously was then subjected to size selection and designated “size selected”. Selection of sequences 375–900 nucleotides (nt) in length (275–800 nt sequences plus 50 nt sequencing adaptors on each end of the cDNA) was performed using the Pippin Prep system (Sage Science, Beverly, MA, USA). All libraries were then quantified with qPCR according to Illumina recommendations. The sequencing was performed at the Kansas State University Integrated Genomics Facility on the MiSeq personal sequencing system (Illumina) using the 600 cycles MiSeq reagent v3 kit (Illumina) according to Illumina instructions, resulting in 2 × 300 nt reads.

Libraries were generated using the Illumina Truseq Small RNA Preparation kit according to the manufacturer's instructions and the protocol described by Capra et al. (7 (link)). Libraries from the 10 bulls (five HF, five LF) in the two seasons (winter and summer) were pooled together for each technical replicate and concentrated (15 × libraries pool) with Agencourt®AMPure® XP (Beckman, Coulter, Brea, CA) (1 Vol. sample: 1.8 Vol. beads), thus obtaining two pools of libraries representing the two technical replicates. The two pools were purified on a Pippin Prep system (Sage Science, MA, USA) to recover the 125–167 nt fraction containing mature miRNAs. The quality and yield after sample preparation were measured with an Agilent 2200 Tape Station, High Sensitivity D1000. Libraries were sequenced on two lanes of Illumina Hiseq 2000 (San Diego, CA).

The next generation sequencing technology-based TCR repertoire analysis was done as previously described (16 (link),17 (link)). Briefly, total RNA was extracted from tumor sample using RNeasy mini kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA, USA), and cDNA was synthesized by SMART (Switching Mechanism At 5′ end of RNA Transcript) cDNA library construction kit (Clontech, Mountain View, CA, USA). PCR reactions were performed to amplify compatible amplicon libraries of TCRβ with the Ion Torrent sequencing platform (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA). A forward primer (5′-CCTCTCTATGGGCAGTCGGTGATTATCAACGCAGAGTGGCCAT-3′) was designed for the sequence of the SMART IV adaptor and the P1 adaptor. A reverse primer (5′-CCATCTCATCCCTGCGTGTCTCCGACTCAGCAGAAGGAACGATTCTGATGGCTCAAACACAGC-3′) was designed for the constant region of TCRβ, including the A1 adaptor sequence. Underline indicates the IonXpress barcode sequences. PCR reaction was performed as follows: 3 min at 94°C; 40 cycles of 30 sec at 94°C, 30 sec at 65°C, and 35 sec at 68°C. Amplified PCR products were purified using AMPure XP reagent (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA, USA) and products of 300–900 bp were selected by Pippin Prep system (Sage Science, Beverly, MA, USA). Finally, we measured the concentration of size-selected PCR products by Agilent 2200 TapeStation System (Agilent, Santa Clara, CA, USA).

Libraries were constructed using NEBNext Small RNA Library Prep Kit (NEB). Input total RNA was ligated with 3′ adapters, and the excess of 3′ adapter was hybridized with a reverse transcription primer prior to the ligation of the 5′ adapter. Ligated RNA was converted into cDNA with a first strand reverse transcriptase, followed by PCR amplification. Library size was then selected by loading the PCR product into a 3% agarose dye-free gel of a Pippin Prep system (Sage Science). The libraries were 100 bp single-end sequenced. The metrics for all of the library sequencing performed in this project are shown in Supplementary Data 7.

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.
