About 5 μg fragmented mRNA was subjected to immunoprecipitation, according to the reported MeRIP method [16 (link)]. Briefly, fragmented RNA was incubated for 2 h at 4°C with 10 μg m6A antibody (Synaptic Systems Cat. No.202003, diluted to 0.5 mg/ ml) in 1,000 μl RIP buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 750 mM NaCl and 0.5% Igepal CA-630), supplemented with 2 mM RVC (Sigma) and 200 U RNasin (Promega). To reduce nonspecific binding, protein-A beads were pre-blocked in 1,000μl RIP buffer with 0.5 mg/ml BSA for 2h at 4°C. The pre-blocked protein-A beads were then incubated with above mixture for another 2 h at 4°C. The beads were vigorously washed using 1,000 μl RIP buffer three to four times. Discard the RIP buffer. Add 300 μl dilution buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5) into the bead tube and incubate at 50°C for 90 min. Eluted RNA was precipitated by ethanol-NaAc solution and glycogen (Life Technologies) overnight at -80°C. The eluted RNA was treated with RNasin (Promega) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Mouse anti-Orb (4H8 and 6H4) or mouse anti- β-gal (401A) were coupled to A/G agarose beads (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) by incubating overnight at 4 degrees. 250 females were dissected in ice cold 1xPBS and ovaries were transferred to dry ice while dissecting. RNAsin (Promega) was added to ovaries and they were crushed using a plastic pestle to make a paste. The ovary paste was centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 5 minutes at 4 degrees twice, and the supernatant was saved. Half of the supernatant was added to the Orb antibody coupled with beads, and the other half was added to the control antibody beads. CoIP buffer ([55 (link)]) and RNAsin (Promega) was added to IPs, which were left to rotate for 3 hours at 4 degrees. The beads were pelleted by centrifugation and washed with coIP buffer 5 times.
RNA was released from the beads by adding 10 mM HEPES 1% SDS solution and β-mercaptoethanol, and left in a 65 degree water bath for 15 minutes. Phenol followed by phenol chloroform was used for extraction, and the water phase was ethanol precipitated with glycogen added as a carrier. The pellet was dried and then DNAse (Promega) treated.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Prior to extracting nuclei, we assessed numbers of nuclei that comprise the A. suum intestine. This was accomplished by staining freshly dissected intestine with the non-vital stain bisbenzimide (Hoechst nuclear dye 33,258, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis MO) at 10 µg/mL in PBS for 30 min. Rinsed tissue placed on a glass slide. The intestine assumed a flattened shape, rather than round. It was then viewed using a Nikon Diaphot 300 inverted microscope equipped with epifluorescence capabilities (UV-2 A filter (blue) and photographed with a Nikon D5100 digital camera. Digital images were evaluated by counting the average number of nuclei contained within 50µM × 50µM areas of intestinal tissue, and extrapolating the cell counts to the full intestine.
To obtain single nuclei preparations, flash frozen A. suum intestinal tissue (∼ 50 mg) was homogenized in a Dounce homogenizer in 3 mL Lysis Buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4, 10 mM NaCl, 3 mM MgCl2, 0.025% NP-40, and 0.04 U/µL RNasin (Promega)) and incubated on ice 15 min. The suspension was filtered through a 30 μm filter to remove debris and pelleted at 500 × g for 5 min at 4oC. Nuclei were washed and filtered twice with Nuclei Wash (1% BSA in PBS with 0.2 U/µL RNasin (Promega)). The nuclei pellets were resuspended in Nuclei Wash at 1000 nuclei / µL and filtered through a 40 μm FlowMi Cell Strainer.
