Viral RNA Extraction and Genome Sequencing

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Viral RNA was extracted from virus supernatants using the NucleoSpin RNA Virus kit (Macherey-Nagel), reverse transcribed with AccuScript (Agilent Technologies), and used for PCR amplification. The viral genome was amplified using eight different, overlapping, primer pairs (sequence available upon request). PCRs were column purified and used for Sanger sequencing. Chromatograms were analyzed with the Staden package (http://staden.sourceforge.net).

Amplification and deep sequencing of CXCR4/CCR5

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was extracted from sorted cells, and first strand cDNA was synthesized with a high-fidelity reverse transcriptase (AccuScript, Agilent Technologies) primed with the EBV-Reverse sequencing primer. The cDNA was PCR amplified in two rounds. In the first round (18 thermocycles), primer overhangs added complementary sequences for the Illumina sequencing primers. In the second round (15 thermocycles), primer overhangs added barcodes and adaptor sequences for annealing to the Illumina flow cell. Thermocycling was kept to a minimum to reduce the introduction of PCR biases and errors. Both CXCR4 and CCR5 coding sequences were amplified as three overlapping fragments to achieve full sequencing coverage. DNA was sequenced at the UIUC Roy J. Carver Biotechnology Center on an Illumina MiSeq v3 (2 × 300nt kit) or HiSeq 2500 (2 × 250nt kit).
Deep sequencing data were analyzed with Enrich (25 (link)). Log2 enrichment ratios of mutants were normalized by subtracting the enrichment of the wildtype sequence. Enrich commands to recreate our analyses and raw data are available in the data deposition with NCBI’s Gene Expression Omnibus (26 (link)) under series accession number GSE100368 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/acc.cgi?acc=GSE100368).

Total intracellular viral RNA was extracted from infected cells using the Qiagen RNeasy kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA, USA), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. RT-PCR was carried out using AccuScript (Agilent Technologies), with specific oligonucleotide primers (S1 Table) The amplicons covered the following genomic regions: A1, spanning genomic residues 7626 to 7962; A2, residues 7941 to 8257; and A3, residues 8229 to 8653. Negative controls without template RNA were included in parallel to ascertain the absence of cross-contamination by template nucleic acids. PCR products were purified (QIAquick Gel Extraction kit), quantified (Pico Green assay), and analyzed for quality (Bioanalyzer) prior to Illumina MiSeq sequencing.

Tapasin-KO Expi293F Cell Screening

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Tapasin-KO Expi293F cells expressing the tapasin or TAPBPR-CT libraries were stained with diluted 1:200 anti-HLA-A2 PE (clone BB7.2, BioLegend Cat# 343302) in PBS-BSA for 30 min at 4 °C and washed twice with PBS-BSA. After gating for the main population by forward-side scatter and excluding dead cells based on DAPI uptake, the top 0.5% of cells for PE fluorescence were collected using a BD FACSAria II. RNA was extracted from sorted cells (GeneJet RNA purification kit, ThermoFisher), first-strand cDNA was synthesized using Accuscript (Agilent) primed with the EBV reverse sequencing primer, which anneals to the 3′ UTR of pCEP4-encoded transcripts. DNA fragments covering mutated regions were PCR amplified in two rounds to append sequences complementary to Illumina sequencing primers (Supplementary Table 2) and add experiment-specific barcodes and Illumina adaptamers. Products were sequenced on a NovaSeq 6000 and analyzed with Enrich49 (link). Scripts for analysis are included with the GEO submission.

RT-PCR Amplification and Sequencing Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RT-PCR amplification was carried out using AccuScript (Agilent) following the manufacturer's instructions. Amplification products were analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis, using GeneRuler 1 kb Plus DNA Ladder (Thermo Scientific) as molar mass standard. Amplification controls in the absence of RNA were run in parallel to ascertain the absence of contamination by undesired templates. Amplified DNA was sequenced using the 23 ABI 3730 XLS sequencer (Macrogen, Inc.). All the oligonucleotide primers used in this study are listed in Supplementary Table S1.

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.
