Padlock oligonucleotides, including a 15 nt random sequence (100 nM) were ligated into circular DNA strands in the presence of template (100 nM) in 1x phi29 buffer ((Thermo Scientific), 10 mM Mg-acetate, 66 mM K-acetate, 0.1% (v/v) Tween 20, 1 mM DTT) containing 0.01 U/μl T4 ligase (Thermo Scientific), and 1 mM ATP (Thermo Scientific). The ligation was performed at 37 °C for 30 min. To remove unligated padlock oligonucleotides, exonuclease I and exonuclease III (Thermo Scientific) were added to the ligation mix to a concentration of 0.2 U/μl and 2 U/μl, respectively. The reactions were incubated at 37 °C for 30 min and terminated by incubation at 85 °C for 20 min. Then the RCA primer (the same oligonucleotide used as ligation template) was adjusted to a concentration of 100 nM and incubated at 37 °C for 20 min to reanneal to the circular DNA strands. The RCA reactions were initiated by adding d(A, U, G, C)TP at concentrations of 1 mM and phi29 polymerase (Thermo Scientific) at 0.1 U/μl. RCA was performed at 37 °C for 10 min, and terminated by heating at 65 °C for 10 min. The RCA products were kept at −20 °C until use. The RCA products were characterized with Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis NTA (Malvern Nanosight NS300) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Blood genomic DNA from seven available individuals of the family (Fig. 1) was used for Sanger resequencing. PCR primer sequences are shown in Supplementary Table 2. PCR assays were performed according to a standard protocol using AmpliTaq Gold DNA polymerase (Life Technologies) as follows: 10 min at 94 °C; followed by 32 cycles of 15 s at 94 °C, 15 s at 58 °C, and 1 min at 72 °C; followed by a final extension of 5 min at 72 °C. The PCR amplicons were sequenced using an ABI3730 DNA sequencer (Genomics Shared Resource, OSU).
SNaPshot assays (Life Technologies) were performed as described18 (link). To amplify genomic regions around the 2 candidate variants (CHD9, SRRM2), PCR was performed followed by a single nucleotide extension reaction.
Screening for the SNP rs149019598 in Ohio PTC patients and controls was carried out by deCODE Genetics in Reykjavik, Iceland, applying the Centaurus (Nanogen) single-track assay54 (link). DNA that had been whole-genome amplified using standard protocols based on the Phi29 polymerase (Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.) was used. To confirm the T allele at rs149019598 as identified from the single-track assay, we used Sanger sequencing to assay unamplified DNA extracted from whole blood.

Staining mixture containing 1x SSC, 20 % (V/V) formamide, plus 0.1 μM of each fluorescent-labeled detection oligonucleotide (see Table 2) at 37 °C for 30 minutes. After imaging for the first staining, detection oligonucleotides were dehybridized and washed with distilled water for 5 minutes three times, followed by the incubation of 30 minutes at 50 °C. Slides were checked to confirm absence of any trace of fluorescent oligonucleotide before the subsequent staining.

A549 cells (1 × 106) were transduced with LV(GFP), NILV(GFP), and NILV‐S/MAR(GFP) at 5 IFU/cell. Untransduced cells served as negative control. The cells were puromycin‐selected and cultured for 2–4 weeks before being transferred to staining slides (Superfrost Plus, ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA). The slides were harvested 1 day after seeding and assayed (Weibrecht et al, 2012) with slight modifications. Cells were fixed and permeabilized. They were then treated with nicking enzyme (Nt.BspQI, New England Biolabs, Ipswich, MA) followed by lambda exonuclease (ThermoFisher Scientific) to digest the nicked DNA strand (Appendix Fig S4). A specific hybridization padlock probe pPadlock (Invitrogen) was applied followed by ligation using T4 DNA ligase (Invitrogen). Rolling circle amplification (RCA) reaction was performed using phi29 polymerase (ThermoFisher Scientific) and the pRCA primer (Invitrogen) for signal enhancement, and the products were further hybridized with the Cy3‐labeled detection oligo pDetect (Invitrogen). Nuclei were stained with Hoechst 33342 (Invitrogen). Slides were imaged in a fluorescence microscope AxioImager M2 (Zeiss, German).

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.
