RNA-seq Protocol with ERCC Spike-Ins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNA was extracted using RNeasy Plus kits (QIAGEN) from 26 daughter clones (Table S2). To control for non-biological variation in expression data, ERCC Spike-In Mix (Thermo Fisher) was added (1ug total RNA spiked with 2uL of 1:100 ERCC mix). rRNA was depleted using Ribo-Zero rRNA Removal Kit (Illumina) and 150 base short-insert cDNA libraries generated using KAPA Stranded mRNA-Seq Kit (Illumina), following the balanced block design (Auer and Doerge, 2010 (link)). Sequencing (paired end, 75-bp read length) was performed on Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform. The sequencing reads were mapped using TopHat2 (Kim et al., 2013 (link)) (version 2.1.1) to the reference human genome (GRCh37) supplemented with control sequences to allow mapping of the Spike-In control RNA. Duplicate reads were removed using the Picard (MarkDuplicates) tool (version 1.60; https://broadinstitute.github.io/picard/). Gene expression levels were estimated with the default settings of the Cufflinks tool (Trapnell et al., 2010 (link)) (v.1.0.2), using a reference General Feature Format (GFF) file derived from Ensembl version 58. Only the high-confidence values (Cufflinks status ‘OK’) were considered in derivation of FPKM values and further analyses. A positive correlation between expected and observed burden of control Spike-In RNA implied the minimal technical variation affecting the data interpretation (not shown).

At 11 weeks of age, six males of each group [SARA, EDMA, MANA, (SARAxMANA)F1, and (EDMAxMANA)F1] were sacrificed. Body weight, total body length, tail length, ear length, and hind foot length were measured, and liver and brown adipose tissue (BAT) were collected for RNA-sequencing. Further information for all mice used in this study can be found in S1 File. Liver and BAT were immediately placed in RNAlater, kept at 4°C for 24 hours and then stored at -80°C until RNA-extraction. We extracted RNA using the Qiagen RNeasy minikit following the manufacturer’s instructions. We validated RNA integrity using an Aligent Bioanalyzer and only RNA with RIN > 8 was used for library preparation. We generated cDNA libraries using the KAPA Stranded mRNA-Seq kit starting with 2ug of total RNA measured using Nanodrop, and uniquely indexed libraries using dual indexes from Illumina. We assessed library size and quality using an Aligent Bioanalyzer with a desired insert size of 300bp. Tissue-specific libraries were then pooled and sequenced across two lanes of Illumina 150bp paired-end NovaSeq, one using an S4 flow cell, and one using an S1 flow cell at the Vincent J. Coates Genomics Sequencing Center at UC Berkeley.

MeRIP and library preparation were conducted according to a previously published protocol with minor revisions [18 (link)]. One hundred twenty micrograms of purified total RNA was evaluated with a NanoDrop ND-1000. Intact mRNA was isolated from total RNA samples using an Arraystar Seq-Star™ poly (A) mRNA Isolation Kit (Arrarystar, MD, USA) following the manufacturer’s instructions and was chemically fragmented into 100-nucleotide-long fragments by incubation in fragmentation buffer. Fragmented mRNA was immunoprecipitated with anti-N6-methyladenosine (m6A) antibody (Synaptic Systems, Goettingen, Germany), and 1/10 of the fragmented mRNA was kept as input. RNA-seq libraries were prepared using a KAPA Stranded mRNA-seq Kit (Illumina, CA, USA). The completed libraries, qualified by an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer, were denatured and diluted to the loading volume of a loading concentration. Clustered libraries were loaded onto a reagent cartridge and forwarded for sequencing runs on an Illumina Hiseq 4000 system by Aksomics (Shanghai, China). Sequencing peaks were annotated to the Ensembl database. Sequence motifs were identified using MEME-ChIP analysis [19 (link)].

Total RNA was extracted using miRNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen, USA#217004, Germantown, MD, USA) and treated with DNase I using in-column DNase I digestion as described in the user’s manual. The integrity of RNA was checked using Bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA) and RNA samples with RNA integrity number (RIN) ~9.0 or more were used for further analyses. Poly (A) mRNA enrichment and construction of stranded mRNA-seq libraries were performed using KAPA Stranded mRNA-seq kit (Cat# KR0960) (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA). Briefly, poly (A) mRNA was captured using magnetic oligo (dT) beads and fragmented using heat and magnesium. First-strand cDNA was synthesized using random primer and the second strand was synthesized in the presence of dUTP. Adenosine was added to the 3′-end followed by adaptor ligation. The library was amplified using high fidelity, low-bias PCR. Single-end sequencing of the libraries was done at the Sequencing and Analysis Core Resource, Duke University using Illumina Hi seq 2000 (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA).

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.
