LC-MS/MS analyses were performed as reported27 (link). Briefly, 1 μg of genomic DNA or S9.6 immunoprecipitated DNA was digested with a mixture of nuclease P1 (Roche), snake venom phosphodiesterase (Worthington) and alkaline phosphatase (Fermentas). One hundred nanograms of digested DNA were subjected to LC-MS/MS analysis. Data were normalized using internal isotopic standards for each 5mC oxidation derivative.

Small RNAs were enriched by ExactSTARTTM Small RNA Cloning Kit (Epicentre Biotechnologies) following manufacturer’s instruction. Single-stranded small RNA was enriched from 200 μg total RNA, treated with alkaline phosphatase (Fermentas) followed by T4 polynucleotide kinase (Fermentas) to convert any possible 5′-hydroxyl and 3′-monophosphorylate ends to 5′-monophosphate and 3′-hydroxyl ends. After adding a poly(A) tail to the 3′-end and ligating a small RNA acceptor oligo containing a PCR priming site and a NotI restriction site to the 5′-monophosphate end, the modified single-strand small RNA was used as template for synthesis of first-strand cDNA with the small RNA cDNA synthesis primer, which consists of an oligo(dT) sequence, a PCR priming site and AscI (Biolabs) restriction site at its 5′-end. PCR was performed to generate the second strand of cDNA and to amplify double-stranded cDNA for subsequent cloning. Double-stranded cDNA was digested with endonucleases AscI and NotI, recovered by gel-purification, and ligated to the pre-cut pCDC1-K vector. The ligation mixture was then transformed to E. coli DH5α. Individual clones were selected and sequenced.

Restriction endonucleases (New England Biolabs), alkaline phosphatase (Fermentas) and T4 DNA ligase (Promega) were used in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications. Plasmids were maintained in the E. coli strain JM109 [12] (link) and isolated using the alkaline lysis method [13] or the QIAprep Spin MiniPrep kit (Qiagen). All primers were synthesized by Sigma-Aldrich. All sequencing was performed at the Biomolecular Resource Facility, Australian National University. PCR was carried out using the high fidelity PfuUltraII polymerase (Stratagene) for cloning and sequencing or iTaq (Scientifix) for screening.

Generating ACE2 Mutant Library via Error-prone PCR

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Error-prone PCR was performed in ACE2 residues 18-102 and 272-409 independently using GeneMorph II Random Mutagenesis Kit (Agilent). A 0.1 ng of plasmid was used as a PCR template and generated mutations with an average of about one mutation per 100 bp in 35-cycle reaction. The plenti ACE2 vector was digested with BamHI or MfeI-SacII (NEB) for ACE2 residues 18–102 or 272–409, respectively with alkaline phosphatase (Fermentas) at 37 °C for 2 h and gel-purified on a Gel and PCR Clean-up kit (TAKARA). A 160 μl NEBuilder ligation reaction (NEB) was performed using 5 ng of the gel-purified inserts and 10 ng of the vector, then purified on a Gel and PCR Clean-up kit (TAKARA) and eluted by a 20 μl of distilled water. From the ligation, 400 μg (~8 μl) of the purified reaction was transformed into 100 ul of electrocompetent cells (Lucigen) and expanded according to the manufacturer’s protocol with 1500 V electroporation by ECM 399 (BTX). A 1000-fold dilution of the full transformation was plated to estimate the scale of mutant library.

Quantifying Transient RNA Dynamics

Newly synthesized RNA was pulse labeled by incubating confluent 10-cm culture dishes with 2 mM bromouridine (BrU; Sigma Aldrich) for 1 hour, either under normal culture conditions, under OND, or after 1 hour of recovery from OND. To estimate background incorporations, cells were analyzed without exposure to BrU. All experimental conditions were performed in triplicate. Following BrU pulse labeling, RNA was extracted using Trizol (Ambion) following the manufacturer’s instructions and following digestion to nucleosides with nuclease P1 (Roche), U snake venom phosphodiesterase (Worthington) and alkaline phosphatase (Fermentas) as described by Kellner et al. [77 (link)]. RNA nucleosides were subjected to liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis. Separation was performed on an Agilent 1290 UHPLC system equipped with a ReproSil 100 C18 column (3 μm , 4.6 × 150 mm, Jasco GmbH) maintained at 30 °C. Identification and quantification of nucleosides was performed on an Agilent 6490 triple quadruple mass spectrometer.

DNA hydrolysis was performed as previously described.11 (link) Briefly, 1 μg of genomic DNA was first denatured by heating at 100 °C. Five units of Nuclease P1 (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA, Cat # N8630) were added and the mixture incubated at 45 °C for 1 h. A 1/10 volume of 1 M ammonium bicarbonate and 0.002 units of venom phosphodiesterase 1 (Sigma-Aldrich, Cat # P3243) were added to the mixture and the incubation continued for 2 h at 37 °C. Next, 0.5 units of alkaline phosphatase (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA, Cat # 18009-027) were added, and the mixture incubated for 1 h at 37 °C. Quantification was performed using a Liquid Chromatography Electrospray Ionization Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS) system in the multiple reaction monitoring mode as described11 (link) with some modifications. Before injection into the Zorbax Eclipse Plus C18 2.1 mm × 150 mm column (1.8 μm particle size) (Agilent, Santa Clara, CA, USA, Cat # 959759-902), the reactions were diluted 10-fold to dilute out the salts and the enzymes. Samples were analyzed on an Agilent 1290 series liquid chromatography instrument in tandem with the Agilent 6490 triple quadrupole mass spectrometer.

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.
