Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A detailed step-by-step protocol has been deposited in the protocols.io repository (Gressel et al. 2019a ). TT-seq and RNA-seq were performed in 2 biological replicates including RNA spike-ins. Briefly, experiments were performed using 5×107 K562 cells per biological replicate. Cells were kept at optimal growth conditions and supplemented with 5 µg mL−1 of α-amanitin or solvent (water) for 8 h. After 7 h 55 min, a 4-thiouridine (4sU) labeling pulse (Sigma-Aldrich, T4509) was applied for 5 min using 500 µM (see Supplementary material S3). Total RNA was isolated with the QIAzol reagent (# 79306) according to manufacturer’s instructions except for the addition of 150 ng of RNA spike-in pool with QIAzol reagent as previously described (Schwalb et al. 2016 (link); Gressel et al. 2019a ). The Ovation Universal RNA-Seq System (NuGEN) was used for strand-specific library preparation as described (Gressel et al. 2019b (link)). Purified cDNA libraries were analyzed by Fragment Analyzer prior to Illumina sequencing. Sequencing was performed on a HiSeq 2500 (Illumina) in paired-end mode with 50-bp read length.

RNA-seq Library Preparation and Sequencing

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNA-seq libraries were prepared using the TruSeq standard mRNA library preparation kit [for poly(A)-RNA-seq; Illumina] or the ovation universal RNA-seq system (for rRNA-depleted RNA-seq; NuGEN) and sequenced by the HiSeq 2500 sequencing system (Illumina). Note that except for the results shown in Supplemental Figure S1, D–F, all of our analyses were performed on poly(A)-selected libraries. This choice was made to minimize the number of falsely identified non-XDT genes: Poly(A)-selected libraries contained fewer sporadic intergenic reads than rRNA-depleted libraries in wild-type (XRN2-proficient) conditions. Since readthrough is defined via a comparison between xrn-2-depleted and control conditions, this lower background permitted more facile detection of readthrough (i.e., XDT genes) and thus helped to avoid false-positive identifications of non-XDT genes.

TT-seq was performed as described (27 (link),31 (link)), with minor changes. Specifically, 6 × 107 cells, grown in absence of penicillin and streptomycin, from two biological replicates were treated for 15 and 30 min with solvent (DMSO) or 7.5μM 1-NM-PP1 (NM) at 37°C and 5% CO2. For the 15 min treatment, cells were exposed to 10 min 500 μM of 4-thiouracil (4sU, Carbosynth, NT06186) after 5 min of DMSO or NM treatment (15 min total treatment). For the 30 min treatment, cells were exposed to 10 min 500 μM of 4-thiouracil (4sU, Carbosynth, NT06186) after 20 min of DMSO or NM treatment (30 min total treatment). Cells were lysed in 5 ml of QIAzol (Qiagen) and 300 ng of RNA spike-ins mix were added to each sample. RNA spike-ins were produced as described (27 (link)). RNAs were sonicated to obtain fragments of <10 kb using AFAmicro tubes in a S220 Focused-ultrasonicator (Covaris Inc, parameters: 10 s, peak power 100, cycles 200, duty cycle 1%). 4sU-labeled RNAs were purified from 240 μg of each of the fragmented RNAs. Biotinylation and purification of 4sU-labeled RNAs was performed as described (27 (link),32 (link)). 100 ng of input RNA was used for strand-specific library preparation according to the Ovation Universal RNA-seq System (NuGEN). Libraries were prepared using random hexamer priming only.

After prostatectomy, the prostate was fixed with formalin and paraffin. To adequately extract only prostate cancer from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue, a pathologist identified a site that was morphologically diagnosed with cancer. Library preparation for whole-transcriptome sequencing, with rRNA depletion, was performed using the NuGen Ovation Universal RNA-Seq system (Part#: 0343) according to manufacturer's protocol. The libraries were analyzed on Agilent 4200 TapeStation System using High Sensitivity D1000 ScreenTape Assay (Cat#: 5067-5584) and quantified using KAPA qPCR (Cat# KK4835). Libraries were then normalized to 10nM, and specific number of libraries were combined per pool to get about 100 million reads per sample. Each pooled library was then clustered and sequenced on Illumina NextSeq 550 instrument using NextSeq 500/550 High Output Kit v2 (300 cycles) in 2 × 150 bp paired end sequencing format.

Transcriptomic Profiling of Plasmodium-Infected Mosquito Tissues

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We prepared RNA-seq libraries from P. falciparum-infected MGs and SGs obtained in two independent experimental infections (Infections 2 and 3; Supplementary Table S1). Immediately after dissection, tissues were stored in TRIzol (Invitrogen) and frozen at −80°C until subsequent processing. Total RNA was extracted from a pool of ∼30 MGs and a pool of ∼60 SGs from 30 mosquitoes using the TRIzol manufacturer protocol. RNA concentration was quantified using a Qubit® 2.0 Fluorometer, and RNA integrity was determined with an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. We used the Ovation® Universal RNA-seq System (Nugen Technologies) for strand-specific RNA-seq library construction following the manufacturer instructions. Custom primers specific to mosquito ribosomal sequences were designed to reduce the percentage of ribosomal reads in the sample and the ribo-depletion step was incorporated into the standard workflow (Supplementary Table S3). Libraries were sequenced at Cabimer (Spain) using an Illumina NextSeq500 for both 2 × 150 bp paired-end and 1 × 75 bp single-end reads.

Total RNAs were extracted from 4 M. incognita developmental stages (pre-parasitic J2s, parasitic J3-J4, adult females and eggs) using TRIzol Reagent (Invitrogen); three independent biological replicates were performed for each stage. Total RNA quality and quantity were assessed by a 2100 Bioanalyser (Agilent technologies). Samples with RNA integrity number (RIN) over 8.5 were kept for cDNA library construction, except for eggs samples for which RIN ranged between 6 and 7. An input of 100 ng total RNA was provided to construct cDNA libraries via the Ovation Universal RNAseq system (Nugen technologies). To eliminate unwanted rRNA transcripts, we designed 101 InDA-C primers to target M. incognita 28S and 18S transcripts for depletion. The 12 cDNA libraries (4 stages x 3 replicates) were quantified and equilibrated to 4 nM using Kapa QPCR (Kapa Biosystems). Finally, multiplexed libraries were sequenced on an Illumina NextSeq 500 sequencer on two High 150 flow cells (400M PE75 reads), on the UCA Genomix sequencing platform of Nice Sophia-Antipolis.
