To measure the mRNA co-expression of SARS-CoV-2 WH1 S, E, and M genes in transfected cells, the total RNAs were extracted from the stable transfected cells with pcDNA3.1-SARS-CoV-2 WH1 S-T2A-E-F2A-M using the PureLink Micro-to-Midi Total RNA Purification System kit (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) and synthesis cDNA with SuperScript™ III Reverse Transcriptase (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA), and then evaluated using SYBR Green-based real-time PCR assay with SARS-CoV-2 WH1 S, E, and M-specific primer pairs. The S-specific primer pair had forward primer 5′-GCAATGAAGCCCAGCCAGATGTA-3′and reverse primer 5′-GTGGCTAAGAACCTGAATGAG-3′. The E-specific primers were forward primer 5′-ACAGGTACGTTAATAGTTAATAGCGT-3′ and reverse primer 5′-ATATTGCAGCAGTACGCACACA-3′. The M-specific primer pair contained forward primer 5′-TTTGTGCTTGCTGCTGTTTAC-3′ and reverse primer 5′-GAGTGGCACGTTGAGAAGAAT-3′. In addition, the glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH)-specific primers pairs were forward primer 5′-TGCACCACCAACTGCTTAG-3′ and reverse primer 5′-GATGCAGGGATGATGTTC-3′. Finally, relative mRNA expression levels of SARS-CoV-2 WH1 S, E, and M genes in transfected cells were normalized by the GAPDH expression.

Evaluating SARS-CoV-2 PLpro and Fibrosis Genes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To measure the expression of SARS PLpro, TGF-β1, pro-fibrotic and pro-protein convertase genes in transfected cells or mouse lung tissues, total RNAs were extracted from transfected A549 cells with empty vector pcDNA3.1 or pSARS-PLpro 2 days post transfection using PureLink Micro-to-Midi Total RNA Purification System kit (Invitrogen). Relative mRNA levels were analyzed using two-step real time RT-PCR with SYBR Green I, as described in our prior reports11 (link)12 (link). Primer pairs of SARS PLpro, TGF-β1, pro-fibrotic and pro-protein convertase genes were listed in Table 1. Quantification of specific PCR products was performed using the ABI Prism 7900HT Sequence Detection System (PE Applied Biosystems). Relative changes in mRNA level of indicated genes were normalized relative to GAPDH mRNA.

Total RNA was isolated from all tissue samples using 2-mercaptoethanol and purified using the PureLink Micro-to-Midi Total RNA Purification System kit (Invitrogen).
Reverse transcription of RNA was performed using a Superscript Double-Stranded cDNA Synthesis Kit from Invitrogen with oligo primers. Forward and reverse primers used for initial PCR amplification of the splice variants are diagramed in figure 2 as follows: P1 = 5′-CTGCGTCTCCAAGATCCTCT-3′; P2 = 3′-AAAAGCCATCAGTTGGTTGG-5′; P3 = 5′-AGCAACTGGAAGAGCTGGAA-3′; P4 = 3′-TGACAGGGTCCATGCTGTAG-5′.

Quantitative Analysis of Host Chemokines and Viral Proteins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The total RNAs were purified from transfected cells, stable cell lines and mouse lung tissues using the PureLink Micro-to-Midi Total RNA Purification System kit (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). Relative mRNA levels of host chemokines and viral SUD were analyzed using a SuperScript™ III Platinum® Two-Step qRT-PCR Kit with SYBR® Green (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). After reverse transcription by SuperScript III RT, the real-time PCR was performed with the cDNAs, specific primer pairs, and Platinum® SYBR® Green qPCR SuperMix according to the amplification protocol consisting of 1 cycle at 50 °C for 2 min, 1 cycle at 95 °C for 10 min, 45 cycles at 95 °C for 15 sec, and 60 °C for 1 min. Primer pairs for the detection mRNA levels of human and mouse chemokines (CXCL8, CXCL10, CXCR3, CCL-2/MCP-1, CCL3/MIP-1α, and CCL5/RANTES) as well as SARS-CoV SUD, SUD-NM, and SUD-MC are listed in Table 2. Relative mRNA levels of indicated genes were standardized by human β-actin and mouse GAPDH and then calculated by the comparative CT method (ΔΔCT method).

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.
