Quantitative Real-Time PCR Analysis

The PCR protocols followed those described by Chen et al. [31 (link)], and utilized the same plasmid and reference chromosomal amplicons as well as the primer pairs described by them. The amplification reactions were carried out with ABI PRISM 7900HT SDS using the SYBR Green Master Mix (Applied Biosystems). The number of cycles required to reach the CT number (preset threshold) for each DNA sample was calculated from six separate experiments. The relative change in the copy number of a plasmid between two strains, normalized to the chromosomal reference sequence, was calculated by the 2-ΔΔCT analysis [47 (link)].

Three SNPs were selected for genotyping that map to the 1q21 locus comprising Epidermal Differentiation Complex (EDC) (LCE3A: rs1886734, LCE3D: rs4112788; LCE3E: rs7516108). Two SNPs, rs1886734 and rs4112788, have previously shown to be significantly associated in Chinese population18 (link). Two independent studies reported rs4112788 to be the most associated variant18 (link)40 (link) and also to be in strong LD with LCE3C-LCE3B deletion40 (link). The third SNP (rs7516108), near the LCE3E gene was independent of LCE3C-3B deletion, showed significant association in the GWAS, however, failed to show any association in the follow up study among Chinese population18 (link). All SNPs were genotyped on a 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR System Instrument using allele-specific Taqman MGB probes labelled with fluorescent dyes FAM and VIC (Applied Biosystems), following manufacturer’s protocols. Allelic discrimination was made with the ABI PRISM 7900HT SDS and the SDS 2.2.2 program (Applied Biosystems). Characteristics of the SNPs studied and their HWE status in our sample are presented in Table S3. Approximately 5% of the samples were randomly selected for Sanger sequencing to check for genotyping errors. More than 99% concordance was observed between these two methods.

Sensitive miRNA Detection and Quantification by qRT-PCR

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the detection and quantification
of miRNA by qRT-PCR, we developed a novel protocol that uses commercially
available reagents. In order to fall within the dynamic range of the
standard curve, whole blood total RNA eluent was diluted 1:10–1:100000
for spike-in isolation recovery studies. The diluted RNA, RT primer
and water was heat-denatured at 90 °C for 1 min and then cooled
to 4 °C. After this initial heat-denaturing step, the remaining
RT reagents were added and the RNA was converted to cDNA using MMLV-RT
(Invitrogen) under the following conditions: 4 °C for 15 min,
16 °C for 30 min, 42 °C for 30 min, and 85 °C for 5
min. TaqMan microRNA assays were used for expression analysis of hsa-miR-34a
and hsa-miR-24 (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA). Following cDNA
synthesis, qPCR was performed on 2 μL of cDNA on the ABI Prism
7900HT SDS (Applied Biosystems) using Platinum Taq Polymerase (Invitrogen)
under the following cycling conditions: 95 °C for 1 min (initial
denature) and then 50 cycles of 95 °C for 5 s and 60 °C
for 30 s. Additions to the manufacturers’ reagents include
DMSO (final concentration of 6%) and tetramethylammoniumchloride (TMAC;
final concentration of 50 mM in both RT and PCR) to improve the slope,
linearity, and sensitivity of the assay.

Validating ZNF649 Variant Genotypes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The 6 SNPs most highly associated within the ZNF649 locus were
in perfect LD with each other (r2~1). SNP rs75075099 and rs75577191 were
genotyped by Taqman assay in 96 randomly selected samples. Genomic DNA of the 96 randomly
selected AAs with UC was quantitated via UV absorbance using Nanodrop 1000 (Thermo
Scientific
, Wilmington, DE, USA) and 10 nanogram of DNA was used for allelic
discrimination using TaqMan SNP genotyping assay (assay IDs C__27836655_10 and
C__25965275_10, Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA). Genotypes were determined
automatically using the ABI Prism 7900HT SDS software suite (SDS version 2.4, Applied
Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA). We compared the genotype probability from the
imputation to the genotyped observed by the Taqman assay. Genotypes for 85 and for 9 DNAs
from the 96 randomly selected AAs were high confidence homozygote reference and
heterozygotes, respectively, and these were all confirmed by Taqman genotyping for both
SNPs. The remaining 2 samples were only 20–30% confidence heterozygotes.
One was confirmed by Taqman genotyping.

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.
