Following cell sorting, cells were pelleted at 400g for 5 min, resuspended in PBS with 0.01% BSA, and counted with a hemocytometer. Cells were adjusted to a final concentration of 140,000 cells/ml. Drop-seq was then carried out at the Princess Margaret Genomics Facility (Toronto, ON) as described previously (52 (link)), except that flow rates of 3000 (cells and beads) and 13,000 μl/hour (oil) were used, and beads were resuspended at 167,000 per ml. Following Drop-seq droplet collection, complementary DNA amplification and sequencing library preparation were performed as described (52 (link)), and the libraries were sequenced on a high-output Illumina NextSeq 500 flow cell at the Princess Margaret Genomics Centre (Toronto, ON).

Illumina sRNA Library Preparation Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
sRNA libraries were prepared using Illumina’s TruSeq small RNA sample preparation kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA) according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Briefly, RNA 3′ and RNA 5′ adapters were sequentially ligated unto 1 μg of high-quality purified sRNA sample using truncated T4 RNA Ligase 2 and T4 RNA Ligase, respectively. The sRNA fragments were then reverse-transcribed to generate first strand cDNA using SuperScript II reverse transcriptase (Catalog No. 18064014, ThermoFisher Scientific). The cDNA was converted into double-stranded cDNA with PCR using two primers that respectively anneal to the ends of 3′ and 5′ adapters. This process selectively enriches those fragments that have adapter molecules on both ends. The amplified cDNA was then purified on a 6% PAGE gel, normalized to 2 nM concentration, denatured with sodium hydroxide, and diluted in HT1 hybridization buffer (Catalog No. FC-404-2005, Illumina) for loading onto a NextSeq 500 flow cell. Sequencing reactions were carried out according to Illumina’s recommended protocol.

The 12.5 μl reverse transcription reaction above was added to a tube containing: 30 pmol of Illumina Truseq Universal PCR primer (5′-AATGAT ACGGCGACCACCGAGATCTACACGTTCAGAGTTCTACAGTCCGA); 30 pmol of Illumina Truseq Barcoded PCR primer (5′-CAAGCAGAAG ACGGCATACGAGATXXXXXXGTGACTGGAGTTCCTTGGCACCCGAGAATTCCA, in which XXXXXX corresponds to standard Illumina Truseq barcodes); and 25 μl of 2x KAPA HiFi HotStart ReadyMix PCR Kit in a total volume of 50 μl. The reaction was heated to 98°C for 1 min, and then cycled 12 times with 98°C for 10 s, 60°C for 30 s, and 72°C for 15 s, followed by a single incubation at 72°C for 5 min. The resulting PCR products were isolated using AMPure XP PCR purification system (Agencourt, Beckman-Coulter), separated on a 4% Agarose gel, with PCR products cut in the 140–195 bps range, which corresponds to insert size of 20–75 bps. Library was extracted from the gel using Zymo agarose dissolve buffer (ADB) as specified by the Zymo manual and then run over a Zymo DNA Clean & Concentrator-25 column to purify. The prepared library was then loaded onto an Illumina NextSeq500 flowcell, sequenced for 75 bases of the insert and 7 bases of the index read using standard NextSeq500 sequencing reagents. Reads were then processed using CASAVA 1.8 and demultiplexed based on index sequences.

For each condition, three biological replicates were sequenced. RNA concentrations were measured with the Quant-iT RiboGreen RNA assay (Life Technologies, Inc.), and RNA quality was assessed by capillary electrophoresis with the RNA 6000 Pico Chip (Agilent Technologies). A 2-µg sample of RNA was depleted of rRNA with the Ribo-Zero rRNA Removal kit for Gram-negative bacteria (Illumina). Library preparation was performed in accordance with the TruSeq Stranded Total RNA Library Preparation protocol (Illumina). Libraries were quantified by qPCR in accordance with the Illumina Sequencing Library qPCR Quantification protocol guide, version February 2011. Library size distribution and quality were checked on a DNA 1000 chip (Agilent Technologies). Sequencing was performed with a high-throughput Illumina NextSeq 500 flow cell generating 75-bp single reads.
Reads were mapped to the B. cenocepacia LMG 16656 reference genome (6 (link)) with a 95% similarity cutoff by using CLC Genomics Workbench version 8.5.1 (Qiagen). Statistical analyses were performed with EDGE (Estimated Degree of Gene Expression). Genes were reported as significantly differentially expressed when the P value was <0.05 and there was a change of ≥1.5-fold.

RNA from the EV cohort and the negative control (RNA extraction from culture medium) were subjected to library preparation. MicroRNA libraries were created with the QIAseq miRNA library kit (QIAGEN, Hilden, Germany). This kit was chosen over the Illumina library preparation kit, as its input requirement was lower and could accommodate the low RNA yields from erythrocyte‐derived EVs. Libraries were pooled and sequenced in single‐end fashion on a NextSeq 500 flow cell (NextSeq 500/550 High Output v2.5 kit , 150 cycles; Illumina, San Diego CA, USA).

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.
