Directional RNA Sequencing Library Prep

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For long RNA library preparation a Ribo-zero Magnetic Gold rRNA removal kit (Epicenter, IIlumina Inc.) was used to remove ribosomal RNA from the total RNA. First strand synthesis was performed using NEBNext RNA first strand synthesis module (New England BioLabs Inc., Ipswich, MA, USA). Immediately thereafter, directional second strand synthesis was performed using NEBNExt Ultra Directional second strand synthesis kit. Following this, cDNAs were used for standard library preparation protocol using NEBNext DNA Library Prep Master Mix Set for Illumina. End-repair was performed followed by polyA addition and custom adapter ligation. After ligation, material was individually barcoded with unique in-house genomics service lab primers. Library quality and concentration were assessed by a Qubit 2.0 Fluorometer and DNA 1000 chips on an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. Accurate quantification for sequencing applications was determined using the qPCR-based KAPA Biosystems Library Quantification kit (Kapa Biosystems, Inc., Woburn, MA). Each library was diluted to a final concentration of 12.5 nM and pooled equimolar prior to clustering. Paired-end sequencing was performed on all samples (100 bp paired-end directional reads). Raw reads were de-multiplexed using a bcl2fastq conversion software v1.8.3 (Illumina, Inc.) with default settings.

All RNA samples were subjected to RNA sequencing (RNAseq; HudsonAlpha Genomic Services Lab, Huntsville, AL) as performed before [37 (link)]. In short, total RNA concentration was estimated by Qubit 2.0 Fluorometer (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) and RNA integrity by using the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer (Applied Biosystems, Carlsbad, CA, USA). RNAseq libraries were formed from approximately 500 ng total RNA of each pooled sample, followed by poly(A) enrichment. RNAseq was performed using paired-end sequencing on Illumina HiSeqH2000 (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA), at 50 base pairs, generating over 25 million paired reads per sample. Raw RNAseq FASTQ files were demultiplexed by bcl2fastq conversion software v1.8.3 (Illumina, Inc., San Diego, CA, USA) using default settings.
RNAseq data was analyzed using GeneSifter software (VizX Labs, Seattle, WA). RNAseq reads were mapped to the Mus musculus reference genome build 37.2, and for this, the reads were trimmed by 15 base pairs at the five-prime end. Subsequently, transcript abundance was calculated by estimating the reads per kilobase of exon per million mapped reads (RPKM), and normalization to the number of mapped reads was used for comparison of two mRNA sets. A t test was used for pairwise comparison and a likelihood ratio test to adjust for distribution probability.

RNA-Seq experiments were performed as previously described [29 (link)]. Briefly, RNA was extracted from sorted cells using the automated Maxwell 16 magnetic particle processor and a Maxwell 16 LEV simply RNA kit (Promega). Polyadenylated RNAs were isolated using NEBNext magnetic oligo d(T)25 beads (New England BioLabs), individually bar-coded, and next generation sequencing expression libraries were prepared using the NEBNext mRNA Library Prep Reagent Set for Illumina (New England BioLabs). Each library was diluted to a final concentration of 12.5nM and pooled equimolar prior to clustering. Paired-End (PE) sequencing (25 million, 50-bp, paired-end reads) was performed using a 200 cycle TruSeq SBS HS v3 kit (Illumina) on an Illumina HiSeq2000 sequencer. Image analysis and base calling were performed using the standard Illumina Pipeline consisting of Real time Analysis (RTA) v1.13. Raw reads were de-multiplexed using a bcl2fastq conversion software v1.8.3 (Illumina) with default settings. Paired-end reads were mapped against the human reference genome (GRCh37) using TopHat v2.0.0. Human gene models and annotations were obtained from ENSEMBL v63 (June 2011). Gene expression quantification was conducted on the gene level using Subread v1.4.6 counting mapped paired-reads to obtain fragment counts per gene (see S2 Text for additional details).

High-throughput sequencing of the samples was performed by Genome Quebec using the HiSeq system (Illumina). Libraries were prepared using NEBNext UltraTM II DNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina (New England Biolabs) followed by sequencing on two lanes of an Illumina HiSeq 4000 PE150 system (Illumina) allocating 1/20 and 1/25 of a lane for each sample. Demultiplexing and conversion to FASTQ files were performed using bcl2fastq Conversion Software v1.8.4 (Illumina) resulting in 32 metagenomic datasets.

Genomic DNA from frozen tissue was extracted using the Qiagen Gentra Puregene Tissue Kit (Qiagen). Sequencing libraries were prepped with the KAPA HyperPrep Kit (Roche) using 1 µg of DNA. DNA was sheared using a Covaris LE220 ultrasonicator targeting 200 bp, and sequencing adaptors added by ligation. Individually barcoded libraries were pooled 4-plex before capture. Libraries were hybridized to SeqCap EZ Choice probes of the 50 Mb Human UTR Design (Roche), and sequenced on a HiSeq 2500 (Illumina) using a PE100 in high-output mode. Image analysis and base calling were performed using Illumina’s Real Time Analysis v1.18.66.3 software, followed by demultiplexing of indexed reads and generation of FASTQ files, using Illumina’s bcl2fastq Conversion software v1.8.4.

RNA-seq Data Analysis Workflow

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Demultiplexing of the RNA-seq samples was performed with the bcl2fastq Conversion software v1.8.4 (Illumina). Next, the quality check, trimming of reads, and mapping of reads were conducted with FastQC 11.8, FLEXBAR 3.5.0, and TopHat 2.1.1 software, respectively. The mapping statistics and read counts were generated with samtools 1.9, RSeQC, and HTSeq-count 0.11.1 software, Gtf-Ensembl annotation 96. Differential expression analysis was performed using DEseq 2 software. Genes with p-adjusted < 0.05 (FDR—Benjamini–Hochberg (BH) adjustment) and fold-change > (1.3) were regarded as differentially expressed. Classification of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and functional enrichment was performed with the DAVID functional annotation tool (https://david.ncifcrf.gov/summary.jsp) and STRING version 11.0 (https://string-db.org/cgi/input.pl? sessionId = OEsGZBwjRNJY). GSEA (gene set enrichment analysis) was performed using WebGestalt software (http://www.webgestalt.org/). To compare the RNA-seq results with the qPCR results, the Pearson correlation between the fold change obtained after RNA-seq and qPCR was calculated using SAS software. Statistical analysis of gene expression after the qPCR analysis was performed with the Mann–Whitney test.
