RNA-sequencing Data Analysis Pipeline

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNA-sequencing data obtained using the Illumina GA IIx sequencing platform have been deposited in the Sequence Read Archive database1 (accession numbers SRR1638088, SRR1638089, SRR1638091, SRR1638092, SRR1638093, and SRR1638095) (Chen et al., 2015 (link)). The reads were trimmed from the end to 75 bp, mapped to the coding sequences extracted from the annotated M. alpina genome, and analyzed as previously described (Chen et al., 2015 (link)). Transcript abundances were calculated using Cufflinks version 0.9.3 with the corresponding genomic regions of annotated genes used as input reference annotation. The output normalized expression values in fragments per kilobase of exon per million fragments mapped (FPKM) were used for further comparative analysis (Mortazavi et al., 2008 (link); Trapnell et al., 2010 (link)).

MHC Variant Calling from Illumina PGF Data

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PGF sequencing data was generated from 125 bp paired-end reads generated on the Illumina GAIIx sequencing platform. The paired-end reads were quality trimmed (minimum PHRED score of 30) using sickle version 1.010 (https://github.com/najoshi/sickle). Quality trimmed reads were aligned to the reference genome (HG19) using BWA version 0.6.2-r126 with default parameters [44 (link)]. After alignment, variant calling was performed following GATK v3 best practices with recommended parameters for accurate and efficient variant calls [45 (link)] (GATK version 1.6-2-gc2b74ec and Picard version 1.57). The only step not applied was the removal of duplicates since the target (4 Mb of the MHC) was relatively small compared to the whole human genome.

Medaka Transcriptome 5′-end Sequencing

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We collected mRNA 36-nt 5′-end reads from three tissues (blastulae, testes, and liver) from Hd-rR and HNI medaka strains using an Illumina GAIIx sequencing platform according to the protocols described in ref. [9 (link)], which required 10 ug of total RNA. We used 3–5 million cells because one million cells yielded 2–4 ug total RNA. In terms of the reproducibility of the method for collecting 5′-end reads, we found a high correlation between technical replicates and validated the method using quantitative real-time PCR in our previous paper [32 (link)]. In addition, we performed two independent experiments on 2-day-old embryos (Additional file 11: Figure S2 in ref. [9 (link)]) and observed an extremely high correlation between the frequencies of individual 5′-end tags aligned to the genome (Pearson’s correlation coefficient = 0.996), which can be found in the section titled “Methods of collecting 5′-end tags and their reproducibility” in the supporting online material of ref. [9 (link)]. We validated the method using quantitative real-time PCR.

Targeted Sequencing for Somatic Mutation Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Target gene capture was performed using SureSelect custom designs (Agilent Technologies, Inc., Santa Clara, CA) targeting 1,321 genes (Supplementary Table 2). Sequencing was performed using an Illumina GAIIx sequencing platform (Illumina, Inc., San Diego, CA) at the Beijing Genomics Institute (BGI, Shenzhen, China).
Sequences were aligned to the human genome reference hs37d5 using the Burrows-Wheeler Aligner (BWA)54 (link). The Genome Analysis ToolKit (GATK)55 (link) was used for insertion/deletion realignment, quality score recalibration, and variant identification. ANNOVAR58 (link) was used to annotate mutations. Matched normal samples were not available for comparison so somatic mutations were enriched via population filtering, including 1000 Genomes and 238 unmatched normal samples. Final read depth averaged ~140x across the targeted regions and a median of ~94% of bases across samples had ≥10 reads (Supplementary Figure 2).

The Agilent SureSelect Human All Exon 50Mb kit was used and target interval file was downloaded from Agilent eArray service (Agilent, CA). Paired-end Illumina libraries were captured in solution according to the Agilent SureSelect protocol. One hundred and eight base pair paired-end reads were generated using the Illumina GAIIx sequencing platform.

Isolates were grown on trypticase soy agar media and DNA was prepared using DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit as described by the manufacturer (Qiagen, Valencia, CA) with the addition of lysostaphin to the gram-positive extraction protocol from Qiagen. The DNA samples were prepared for multiplexed, paired-end sequencing with a 500 base pair insert using Library Preparation Kit with Standard PCR Library Amplification (KAPA Biosystems, Woburn, MA). A 100 bp read paired-end run was used for all twenty-four isolates on the GAIIx sequencing platform (Illumina, Inc. San Diego, CA).

Genome Sequencing and Phylogenetic Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Genomic DNA was extracted using the PeqGold DNA Isolation Kit (PEQLAB, Germany) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The genome was sequenced with Illumina technology using a GAIIx sequencing platform on paired-end libraries prepared with the Nextera XT DNA Kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA). A total of 83 contigs (0.5–330 kb, average 55 kb) were assembled using SPAdes v3.0 (Bankevich et al., 2012 (link)), followed by error correction using BayesHammer (Nikolenko et al., 2013 (link)) and gene prediction using the IMG pipeline (Markowitz et al., 2012 (link)). The draft genome has been converted to EMBL format using EMBLmyGFF3 (Norling et al., 2018 (link)) and deposited at ENA under PRJEB40942. Phylogenetic analysis was carried out with 92 core genes identified using UBCG (Na et al., 2018 (link)), with Capnocytophaga ochracea DSM 7271 as outgroup. The resulting nucleotide alignment was visually confirmed for consistency and the best substitution model (GTR + G) computed using ModelTest-NG (Darriba et al., 2020 (link)). A maximum-likelihood phylogeny with 1000 bootstrap replicates was calculated using RaxML v8.2 (Stamatakis, 2014 (link)) on the CIPRES Science Gateway (Miller et al., 2010 ).

Stool samples were sent to the Genetics Core Facility at the Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology, University of Hawaii at Manoa (Honolulu, HI) for microbiome study. The 16s rRNA was sequenced using Ilumina GAIIX sequencing platform, amplicon libraries were generated according to Illumina TruSeq protocols. The relative abundances of Prevotella and Bacteroides were calculated as the ratio of the number of reads of the target genus over the total number of reads of all genera identified in the sample.

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.
