To concentrate and cleanup RNA samples, sodium acetate–ethanol or isopropanol precipitation was carried out. 3 M sodium acetate (pH 5.4, Life Technologies) was added to make up 1/10th of the sample volume. 1–2 μl of GlycoBlue (Invitrogen) was used as co-precipitant. Depending on the sample volume either 3 volumes of ice-cold 100% Ethanol (<300 μl) or 1 volume of ice-cold 100% Isopropanol was added. After thorough mixing, samples were precipitated at –80°C for at least 30 min and spun for at least 60 min in the pre-cooled 4°C centrifuge at 18213 g. RNA pellets were washed with at least 250 μl of ice-cold 80% ethanol and spun for at least 4 min. After aspiration by pipetting RNA pellets dried at room temperature for 3–5 min and were resuspended in 10 mM Tris, pH 7.0. To clean up samples further and remove traces of short DNA oligos post DNase treatment, we purified RNA samples by RNA Clean & Concentrator-5 kit (Zymo Research). If this kit was used prior to DNase treatment, elution was done with 85 μl DEPC-water. Otherwise, samples were eluted into 10 mM Tris, pH 7.0. For DNase treatment, 5 μl 10× Turbo DNase buffer and 5 μl 2U/μl TurboDNase (Thermo Fisher Scientific) were added to 85 μl of sample and incubated for 20–30 min at 37°C. RNA was cleaned up either with the RNA Clean & Concentrator-5 kit (Zymo Research) or by Ethanol precipitation.

Samples corresponding to 1 ml of culture at an OD600 of 0.4 grown for dead/live staining, as described above, were collected and centrifuged at 10,000g for 3 min. The resulting pellets were frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored −80 °C until further processing. Total RNA was extracted using 1.5 ml of Trizol and 1.5 ml of ethanol with the Direct-zol RNA Miniprep kit (R2051, Zymo), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The RNA was further purified using the RNA Clean & Concentrator-5 kit (R1013, Zymo). A total of 0.5 µg of RNA from each sample in 5 µl was combined with 2.5 µl of RNA loading dye, heated to 70 °C for 10 min and subsequently chilled on ice for 2 min. The RNA High-Range ladder that was used was also heat-treated. The denatured samples (5 µl) and the leader (3 µl) were loaded onto a 1% TBE gel. The gel was run for 40 min at 120 V. Next, the gel was stained for 30 min in ethidium bromide, washed for 10 ml and imaged. Gel images were analysed using GelAnalyzer v.19.1 (www.gelanalyzer.com).

The methylation assay is carried out in a reaction mixture (total volume: 20 μl) containing 25 mM Tris–HCl (pH8.0), 50 mM KCl, 2.5 mM MgCl2, 0.05 mM EDTA, 2.5% glycerol, 5 mM DTT, 20 μM AdoMet, 10μM synthetic miR-21-5p and 5 μM recombinant HENMT1 proteins. The genes encoding full-length HENMT1 was cloned into the pET15b vector with an N-terminal His tag and transfected into BL21 (DE3) Escherichia coli cells. Recombinant HENMT1 protein was generated and purified as previously described (22 (link)). The mixtures were incubated at 37°C for 40 min. The RNAs were then extracted by RNA Clean & Concentrator-5 kit (Zymo Research) according to the manufacturer's instructions.

RNA was extracted from 5 mL cultures prepared as detailed above. Cultures were centrifuged for 10 min at 3,700 g, and the pellet was thoroughly resuspended in 1 mL TRI Reagent® (Sigma-Aldrich). Total RNA was then extracted using the Direct-zol RNA MiniPrep Kit (Zymo Research) with the recommended DNase I treatment, according to manufacturer's instructions. Cappable-seq was carried out as described elsewhere (41) , with the following modifications. Approximately 10 μg of clean RNA was used for each assay. The very first RNA clean-up step was performed using Agencourt® RNAClean® XP Beads (Beckman) to ensure maximum elimination of unincorporated DTB-GTP. The removal of 3' phosphates from fragmented RNA was performed using the Thermo Scientific™ T4 Polynucleotide Kinase (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and its supplied ATP-free buffer. For RNA-seq samples, 800 ng of total RNA was fragmented in 5X RNA Fragmentation Buffer (200 mM Tris-Acetate, pH 8.1, 500 mM KOAc, 150 mM MgOA) by incubating at 95°C for 7 minutes and quenching immediately on ice. RNA was then purified using the RNA Clean & Concentrator-5 Kit (Zymo Research), according to manufacturer's instructions. The quality and concentration of RNA before and after fragmentation were evaluated using a 2100 Bioanalyzer instrument (Agilent Technologies). Replicates are detailed in Supplementary Table S2.

Real-time qPCR was performed to assess the relative abundance of the selected mRNA in m6A antibody IP samples and input samples. Briefly, total RNA was isolated with an RNeasy mini kit. With 500 ng RNA kept as an input sample, the remaining RNA was used for m6A-immunoprecipitation. Hundred microgram of RNA was diluted into 500 μl IP buffer (150 mM NaCl, 0.1% NP-40, 10 mM Tris, pH 7.4, 100 U RNase inhibitor) and incubated with m6A antibody (Synaptic Systems, Goettingen, Germany). The mixture was rotated at 4 °C for 2 h, then Dynabeads® Protein A (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA) coated with BSA was added into the solution and rotated for an additional 2 h at 4 °C. After washing by IP buffer with RNase inhibitors four times, the m6A IP portion was eluted with elution buffer (5 mM Tris-HCL pH 7.5, 1 mM EDTA pH 8.0, 0.05% SDS, and 4.2 μl Proteinase K (20 mg/ml)18 (link). The final eluted mRNA was concentrated with an RNA Clean & Concentrator-5 kit (Zymo Research, Irvine, CA). The same amount of the concentrated IP RNA or input RNA from each sample was used for the cDNA library. The mRNA expression was determined by the number of amplification cycles (Cq). The relative m6A levels in genes were calculated by the m6A levels (m6A IP) normalized using the expression of each gene (Input).

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.
