After being denatured by heating at 72°C for 5 min, mRNA in a volume of 1.5 μL was spotted on Hybond Nitrocellulose Membranes (Pall) and cross‐linked to the membrane by UV. One of the membranes was blocked using 5% non‐fat dry milk in TBST for 1 h at room temperature and inducted with rabbit anti‐m6A antibody (1:3000; Synaptic Systems) overnight at 4°C. Next day, the membrane was inducted with HRP‐conjugated goat anti‐rabbit IgG (1:5000) for 2 h at room temperature, then visualized on GNOME XRQ NPC (Syngene) using ECL chemiluminescence (Millipore). The other membrane was stained with 0.02% methylene blue in 0.3 M sodium acetate (pH 5.2) for 2 h as the loading control.

After verifying m6A binding with the anti-m6A antibody, anti-m6A RIP-qRT–PCR was used for quantification of m6A-modified MAT2A levels. The total RNA was extracted using the total RNApure Kit (#ZP404-1, ZOMANBIO, China) after METTL16 knockdown in HT22 cells. Then 18 μL of total RNA were subjected to fragmentation using Mg2+ fragmentation solution (#E6150SNEB, NEB, USA) at 94 °C for 3 min. Subsequently, RNA was purified again using a RNeasy micro kit (#74004, Qiagen, Germany) and quantified using a NanoDrop Lite spectrophotometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The 6 μg fragmented RNA suspended in 200 μL RIP lysis buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 0.5% NP-40) supplemented with 0.2 μL RNase inhibitor (#N8080119, Thermo Fisher Scientific) was subjected to RNA immunoprecipitation, in which 1 μg of a rabbit anti-m6A antibody (#202003, Synaptic Systems, Germany) conjugated with 8 μL of Dynabeads protein A (#10001D, Life technologies, USA) was used. After rotation at 4 °C for 2 h, the magnetic beads were washed five times with the RIP lysis buffer, and the precipitated RNA was eluted in the RIP lysis buffer containing 5 mg/mL m6A (#B5993, APExBIO, USA) at 55 °C for 30 min.

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.
