Genomic DNA was isolated from HEK293T cells using a DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit (Qiagen) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The mixture was treated with RNase A (Qiagen) to remove the residual RNA, after which the DNA was purified again with a DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit (Qiagen). The in vitro transcribed crRNA (900 nM) was incubated with the purified dLbCpf1-BE protein (300 nM) at room temperature for 10 min. A total of 10 μg of purified genomic DNA was incubated with pre-complexed dLbCpf1-BE RNPs in a reaction volume of 400 μL in reaction buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl (Sigma-Aldrich) (pH 8.0), 25 mM KCl (Sigma-Aldrich), 2.5 mM MgSO4 (Sigma-Aldrich), 0.1 mM EDTA (Sigma-Aldrich), 10 % glycerol, 2 mM DTT (GoldBio), 10 μM ZnCl2 (Sigma-Aldrich)) at 37 °C for 8 h. The digested DNA was incubated with RNase A (50 μg/mL, Qiagen) to remove crRNA and then purified with a DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit (Qiagen). Two microgram of purified DNA was incubated with USER (10 units, New England Biolabs) in a reaction volume of 200 μL at 37 °C for 2 h, and purified again with a DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit (Qiagen). The target site was amplified by PCR and subjected to Sanger sequencing to check for dLbCpf1-BE-mediated deamination and USER-mediated formation of DNA SSBs.

Based on the defined criteria (see above) selected species were subjected to subsequent qPCR analysis. DNA from single individuals was extracted using the DNeasy® 96 Blood & Tissue Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). Unless otherwise noted, all buffers, racks, and tubes mentioned below are part of this extraction kit. The extraction procedure was a combination of the QIAGEN Supplementary Protocol DY14 (“Purification of total DNA from insects using the DNeasy® Blood & Tissue Kit”; August 2006) adapted to the DNeasy® 96 Blood & Tissue Kit as follows: For DNA extraction, 180 µL phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2; 50 mM potassium phosphate, 150 mM NaCl; not part of the DNeasy® Blood & Tissue Kit) and a 3-mm diameter tungsten bead (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany; not part of the DNeasy® Blood & Tissue Kit) were added to every collection microtube containing an insect specimen. The samples were disrupted for 3 min at 30 Hz in the Tissue Lyser II (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany), and the lysates were collected by a short spin centrifugation of the 96-well microcentrifuge plate. Then 20 µL Proteinase K and 200 µL buffer AL (without ethanol) were added, vigorously mixed, and incubated for 10 min at 56 °C, and 200 µL 96% (v/v) ethanol (not part of the DNeasy® Blood & Tissue Kit) was added to each sample and processed following the instruction of the manufacturer.

Genomic DNA of tissue samples was extracted by using the QIAamp DNA FFPE Tissue Kit or the DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). For cell-free DNA (cfDNA) extraction, plasma was separated by centrifugation at 1600×g for 10 min, then transferred to a new microcentrifuge tube and centrifuged at 16,000×g for another 10 min to remove any remaining cell debris. cfDNA was isolated from the plasma using the QIAamp Circulating Nucleic Acid Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). Peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) were used to extract germline genomic DNA from each patient with the DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). A Qubit fluorometer and the Qubit dsDNA HS (High Sensitivity) Assay Kit (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA USA) were used for DNA concentration measurement. And the size distribution of cfDNA was assessed with an Agilent 2100 BioAnalyzer and the DNA HS kit (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA).

Selection and Characterization of Bacterial Mutants

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After 1 h of recovery from electroporation, we selected mutants as follows: Agar plates: We spread one portion of the culture on LB agar plates containing 40 µg/mL kanamycin (each plate received an appropriate volume of culture to generate 1000–2000 CFUs), and incubated at 37 °C overnight. On the next day, we first measured CFUs using a ProtoCOL3 automatic colony counter (Synbiosis), and then scraping off colonies from agar plates using a sterile cell spreader and 1 mL of LB. We recovered an equal number of mutants for each strain under investigation. We extracted DNA from a dilute sample of the pooled culture using the DNeasy Blood & Tissue kit (Qiagen) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Liquid culture: We transferred the equal volume of the culture directly into an Erlenmyer flask with fresh LB medium containing 40 µg/mL kanamycin (the volume of LB-kanamycin medium was 100X of the transferred culture volume). We shake-incubated the flask (175 r.p.m.) at 37 °C, and collected 1 mL sample when the OD600 of the culture reached 0.4, 0.8, and 1.2, which corresponds to early-, mid-, and late-log growth phase, respectively. We extracted DNA from each sample using the DNeasy Blood & Tissue kit (Qiagen) according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Specimens were collected by a variety of methods ranging from collection by hand, to dredging, and deployment and recovery of wooden substrates (table 1). Specimens were frozen at −80 °C or preserved in 80–100% nondenatured ethanol following collection unless specified otherwise. For Xylophagaidae, siphon tissue was dissected from each bivalve, and total genomic DNA was extracted using the DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit (Qiagen) according to the manufacturer’s protocols. Tissue samples collected in Alabama and Florida were preserved in 0.25 M EDTA, pH 8.0 (Sharpe et al. 2020 (link)). Total genomic DNA was extracted using the DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit (Qiagen) and concentrated using the DNA Clean & Concentrator-25 Kit (Zymo Research) following manufacturer’s recommended protocols.

Total DNA was extracted from 100 µL whole blood using the DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit (Qiagen, Germany), following the manufacturer’s protocol. DNA was extracted from 25 mg liver tissue, after the tissue was homogenized using a rotor-stator homogenizer and probe (Qiagen). The total DNA from liver tissue was extracted using the DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit (Qiagen) according to the manufacturer’s protocol.
PCR primers used for detecting the Hgap gene to confirm the presence of DCH were synthesized (forward: 5’-GTGCTCTGATAACCGTATGCTC-3’; reverse: 5’-CTAGAATGGCTACATGGGGTTAG-3’) as reported previously [1 ]. Conventional PCR was performed using the Bioline MyTaq hot-start polymerase (Bioline, Australia) according to the manufacturer’s protocol: 300 ng DNA template, 5 × MyTaq buffer, 20 µM final primer concentration in a total 25 µL reaction. The PCR cycling conditions were as follows: Initial denaturation at 95℃ for 1 min, followed by 40 cycles of denaturation at 95℃ for 15 s, annealing at 55℃ for 15 s, extension at 72℃ for 10 s and final extension at 72℃ for 5 min. The PCR products from both the blood and liver samples were analysed with (1.5%) agarose gel electrophoresis, from which specific bands containing the PCR products were purified, excised and verified. The amplicons were verified using the Sanger DNA sequencing method.

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.
