Thermal stability of indicated Ric-8A proteins were analyzed by a SYPRO Orange fluorescent dye-based denaturation assay using a Bio-Rad C1000 – CFX96 Real-Time PCR detection system. SYPRO Orange dye was added at 1000x dilution in samples containing 0.5mg/mL Ric-8A 1–452 or full-length with or without phosphorylation (Buffer: 20 mM HEPES pH:7.4, 140 mM KCl, 5% glycerol and 1mM TCEP). Fluorescence of SYPRO orange is measured between 10 to 80 C (30 s per 1 C increments) using the SYBR channel on the CFX96 plate reader.

Quantitative PCR Analysis of siRNA Knockdown

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After two days of treating the cells with SiNCs containing siRNA as described earlier, the cells were collected and the total RNA was extracted using the RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen, Germantown, MD, USA). The RNA concentration of the extracted RNA samples was measured using a Nanodrop (NanoDrop™ 8000 Spectrophotometer, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Wilmington, NC, USA). RT–PCR grade water (Invitrogen) was used throughout the experiment. Then, the cDNA was synthesized using the iScript™ cDNA Synthesis Kit (Bio-Rad) and the qPCR reaction was performed using the iQ™ SYBR® Green Supermix (Bio-Rad) in a Thermal cycler (C1000, CFX96 Real-Time PCR detection system, Bio-Rad). The qPCR data was analyzed using the 2ΔΔCT method. The results were expressed as a relative expression of two independent experiments, compared to the results of the control cell.

Quantitative real-time RT-PCR conditions were optimised with GI.1c in vitro transcripts. Reactions were performed in a final volume of 10μl and contained 1× SensiFAST SYBR No-ROX One-Step mix (Bioline, Alexandria, NSW), 0.5 μM of each primer, 0.2 μl of RNase inhibitor, 0.1 μl of reverse transcriptase, and 1 μl of template RNA. Cycling was performed using a CFX96 C1000 real-time PCR detection system (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Gladesville, NSW), with reverse transcription conducted at 45 ºC for 10 min, followed by denaturation at 95 ºC for 5 min, and then 40 cycles of 95 ºC for 10 s, 63 ºC for 40 s, 78 ºC for 10 s with data acquisition. Melt curve analysis was conducted at 65-95 ºC in 0.5 °C increments at 5 s per increment. Annealing temperature was optimised by gradient PCR.
Data were analysed using CFX manager 3.1 software (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Gladesville, NSW) using a baseline threshold of 200 and baseline subtracted curve fit setting. Average assay efficiency was 95%. Amplicons were separated on 2% agarose gels and visualised by staining with SYBRsafe DNA gel stain (Life Technologies, Scoresby, VIC) to verify that products were of the expected size.

Total tissue RNAs were extracted from the separated tissues, which were then homogenized on ice using TRIzol® reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). The RNA concentration was detected with a GeneQuant 1300 spectrophotometer (Cytiva) according to the manufacturer's protocols. A 1-µl sample of total RNA was reverse-transcribed into cDNA in a 20 µl system using an All-in-One First-Strand cDNA Synthesis kit (GeneCopoeia, Inc.) based on the manufacturer's protocols. Then RT-qPCR was performed using a SYBR-Green qPCR kit (cat. no. F-416L; Finnzymes; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) on a CFX96 Real-time PCR Detection System C1000 (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc.). The thermocycling conditions were as follows: 95°C for 2 min; followed by 40 cycles of 95°C for 10 sec, 60°C for 34 sec and 72°C for 33 sec.

Real-time quantitative PCR was performed using PowerUp™ SYBR ® Green Master Mix (Life Technologies) and Xpert Fast SYBR (GRiSP) to amplify AQP (AQP3, 5 and 7) and markers of lipid metabolism (ADIPO, LEP, GLUT4, PPARα and PPARγ), respectively. The final reaction volume of 20 μl was prepared using 10 μl of SYBR master mix, 3 μl of template cDNA, 2 μl of forward and reverse primers and 3 μl of molecular-biologygrade water. The reaction was performed on a CFX96™ Real-Time PCR Detection System C1000 (BioRad) consisting of an initial denaturation step at 95°C for 3 min, forty-five cycles of denaturation at 95°C for 10 s and annealing/extension at 59 or 62°C (for AQP and markers of lipid metabolism, respectively) for 30 s. The relative expression levels were normalised to reference genes (glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and β-actin (ACTB) for AQP3, AQP5 and AQP7; ribosomal protein L27 (RPL27) for ADIPO, LEP, GLUT4, PPARα and PPARγ) and calculated using a variation of the Livak method (37) , corrected for variation in amplification efficiency, as described by Fleige & Pfaffl (38) .

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.
