Total RNA of mutant or wild type was isolated using
RNA kit (Tiangen, Beijing,
China) following manufacturer’s instructions. The concentration and quality of
RNA were verified by absorption 260/280 nm ratio between 1.8 and 2.0 using
Nanodrop2000 spectrophotometer (Thermo Scientific, USA). RNA quality was checked
on a
Bioanalyzer 2100 (Agilent, Santa Clara, CA, USA) and RNA integrity number
(PRIN) values were greater than 8.6 for mutant and wild type.
Total RNA from 23-19 wild type and
eibi1 mutant were treated
with DNase and reverse-transcribed using a
reverse transcription kit (RR047A)
(Takara Biomedical Technology, Beijing, China). Quantitative RT-PCR was
performed in an
Agilent Stratagene MX3000P (Agilent) using Power SYBR green
chemistry (RR820A) (Takara). All qRT-PCR reactions were performed in triplicate
following the reaction conditions: 95 °C for 10 min followed by 40 cycles of 95
°C for 10 s and 60 °C for 31 s, and the results were analyzed with the relative
quantification system based on the 2
-ΔΔCt method. Actin primers were
5’-AAGTACAGTGTCTGGATTGGAGGG-3’ (sense) and 5’-TCGCAACTTAGAAGCACTTCCG-3’
(antisense).
