Probe Coupling to Carboxylated Beads

All species-specific probes were based on the sequence data from the lab data. Multiple-sequence alignments were carried out using BioEdit version 7.0 software. These species-specific probes were newly designed (Table 2). Probes were synthesized with a 5′-end amino C-12 modification (AuGCT, Beijing, China) and coupled to carboxylated beads (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, United States) as described by the manufacture’s manual. Briefly, a total of 2.5 × 105 carboxylated beads were suspended in 8.5 μL of 0.1 M MES (pH 4.5) with 2 μL of 0.1 nmol/μL oligonucleotide probes. A 2.5 μL of 10 mg/mL freshly prepared EDC [1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide] was added, and vortexed immediately, then incubated at room temperature in the dark for 30 min. After being washed by 0.02% Tween 20 and 0.1% SDS, pellets were centrifuged and resuspended in 20 μL of TE (pH 8.0), and stored at 4°C in the dark until used.

Serotype-specific probes were designed based on the wzx/wzy genes (S3 Table). BioEdit software 7.0 version was used for multiple sequence alignments. The carboxylated beads (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA) were coupled to specific probes with an amino C-12 modifiication at the 3’-end (AuGCT, China).

Oligonucleotide Probe Coupling for Bead-Based Detection

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All species-specific probes were designed based on the sequencing data obtained in
this study. Multiple-sequence alignments were performed using BioEdit version 7.0
software. These species-specific probes were newly designed (S4 Table). The
probes were synthesized with a 5’-end amino C-12 modification (AuGCT, Beijing, China)
and coupled to carboxylated beads (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA) according to
the instructions in the manufacturer’s manual. Briefly, 2.5 x 105carboxylated beads were suspended in 8.5 μL of 0.1 M MES (pH 4.5) with 2 μL of 0.1
nmol/μL oligonucleotide probes. A 2.5 μL volume of 10 mg/mL freshly prepared EDC was
added, and the mixture was immediately vortexed. It was then incubated at room
temperature in the dark for 30 min. This step was repeated a second time. After the
beads were washed with 0.02% Tween 20 and 0.1% SDS, the pellets were centrifuged and
resuspend in 20 μL of TE (pH 8.0) and then stored at 4°C in the dark until used.

Serotype-Specific PCR Primer and Probe Design

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Primer Premier (v5.0, Premier Biosoft International, Palo Alto, CA, USA) was used to design serotype-specific PCR primers based on DNA sequences of the processing genes wzx/wzy and wzm/wzt that were obtained in this study. The forward primer was biotinylated at the 5’-end to allow binding to the reporter dye streptavidin-R-phycoerythrin for detection on a Bio-Plex platform. The primers generated PCR fragments of 151–217 bp (S2 Table) that were then used to design serotype-specific probes based on the processing genes (S3 Table) using multiple-sequence alignments with MUSCLE (v3.8.31). The final probes were 18–25 bp in length, and synthesized with a 5’-end amino C-12 modification (AuGCT, China) and coupled to carboxylated beads (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA).

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.
