Two independent primary AML lines per oncogene (CALM/AF10 or MLL/AF9) were obtained from the bone marrow of leukemic mice (CALM/AF10 #1 and #2 and MLL/AF9 #1 and #2; Figure S2A) and RNA was extracted using an RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen). Libraries were generated using the Ovation Mouse RNA-Seq System following the manufacturer’s specifications (NuGEN). All libraries underwent 75 bp single-end sequencing on an Illumina NextSeq500 sequencer. For RNA-seq of RG3039-treated AML cells (Figure 4), CALM/AF10 cells or GMPs (LinSca-1c-Kit+FcγR+CD34+) were treated with RG3039 (1 μM) in the presence of cytokines, harvested over a 0, 6 and 10h time course, and RNA samples were prepared. Libraries were constructed and underwent 150 bp paired-end sequencing on an Illumina NextSeq500 sequencer.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Metagenome sequencing libraries were prepared with the NEBNext Ultra DNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina (New England Biolabs GmbH, Frankfurt am Main, Germany) and sequenced on a NextSeq500 sequencer (Illumina) using 2 × 150 bases. In addition, DNA from November 2017 was sequenced by PacBio sequencing on a Sequel instrument (Pacific Biosciences, Menlo Park, CA, USA) using circular consensus sequencing with a target length of 2 kilobases. Bioinformatics processing, genome binning, and phylogenetic analysis followed standard procedures as described in the Supplementary Text.
For metatranscriptome sequencing, messenger RNA (mRNA) was enriched from total RNA extracts by depleting ribosomal RNA with the Ribo-off rRNA Depletion Kit for bacteria (Vazyme, Nanjing, China). Thereafter, the sequencing library was prepared with the TruSeq Stranded mRNA Library Prep (Illumina) and sequenced on a NextSeq500 sequencer using 2 × 150 bases. Bioinformatics processing to determine the transcriptional levels of selected genes as well as network analysis of co-transcribed genes are detailed in the Supplementary Text.

For plate-based scRNA-seq, Whole transcriptome amplification was performed using the SMART-seq2 protocol22 (link), with some modifications as previously described28 ,58 . The Nextera XT Library Prep kit (Illumina) was used for library preparation, with custom barcode adapters (sequences available upon request). Libraries from 384 to 768 cells with unique barcodes were combined and sequenced using a NextSeq 500 sequencer (Illumina).
In addition to SMART-seq2, cells from three samples (SS12pT, SS13 and SS14) were also sequenced using droplet-based scRNA-Seq with the 10x genomics platform. The samples were partitioned for SMART-seq2 and 10x genomics after dissociation. For each tumor, approximately two thirds of the sample were used for SMART-seq2 and one third for droplet based scRNA-seq (10x genomics). We sorted viable cells using MACS (Dead Cell Removal Kit, Miltenyi Biotec) and ran up to 2 channels per sample with a targeted number of cell recovery of 2,000 cells per channel. The samples were processed using the 10x Genomics Chromium 3’ Gene Expression Solution (version 2) based on manufacturer instructions and sequenced using a NextSeq 500 sequencer (Illumina).

Prenatal Diagnostics Using rES

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Upon inclusion, patients followed routine prenatal diagnostics starting with QF‐PCR for detection of trisomies 13, 18, and 21, monosomy X and triploidy. Following normal QF‐PCR results, routine‐care SNP‐array and rES were started in parallel (Figure 1 for study workflow).
Fetal DNA was extracted from chorionic villi or amniotic fluid and parental DNA from peripheral blood using standard diagnostic procedures. Identification of the sample and exclusion of maternal cell contamination in the fetal DNA was carried out using QF‐PCR data of the fetus and the mother. Fetal and parental DNA were prepared for rES using SureSelect Human All Exon V6 (Agilent) target enrichment, according to standard procedures, on Bravo automated liquid handling robots (Agilent), and then sequenced on an Illumina NextSeq500 sequencer aiming for 20x coverage for 95% of the target genes. Fetal DNA was prepared for rES in duplo and sequenced in two separate runs for validation purposes in order to avoid time‐consuming Sanger sequencing validation. Two automated DNA isolation systems (Maxwell, Promega), two automated library and enrichment robots (Bravo, Agilent), two TapeStation systems (Agilent) for measuring DNA concentrations, two NextSeq500 sequencers (Illumina) and two data analysis clusters ensured redundancy in case of failure or malfunctions.

1000 ng or 500 ng of DNase-treated RNA samples were converted to cDNA using a QuantSeq 3’ mRNA according to the manufacturer’s protocol (Lexogen, Vienna, Austria). The libraries were amplified with 12 or 13 PCR Cycles and purified using the provided Lexogen. The purified libraries were quantified using a Kapa library quantification kit (KAPA biosystems) and loaded on NextSeq 500 Sequencer (Illumina, San Diego, CA) at a final concentration of 2.6 pM to perform cluster generation, followed by 1×76 bp sequencing on NextSeq 500 Sequencer (Illumina).

Following genomic DNA extraction, qualified DNA sample was randomly sheared to generate 180–280 bp DNA fragments, which were selected for the preparation of DNA libraries. The currently identified 6259 genetic phenotypes by OMIM were detected, and a total of 1839 genes associated with clinical phenotypes of the proband were focused. The libraries were hybridized with biotin-labeled probes in liquid phase; then the streptavidin magnetic beads were used to bind with biotin-containing target fragments for the capture of the exons of these genes. The paired-end reads of 150 bp sequencing was performed on an Illumina NextSeq 500 sequencer (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA) after enrichment and quality inspection of the libraries.

Bacteria were grown overnight on Columbia agar plates with 5% sheep blood (bioMérieux) at 37°C in 5% CO2. On the next day, a fraction of the bacteria was transferred to 10 ml proteose peptone medium (PPM) supplemented with 1× Kellogg´s supplement, 0.01 M MgCl2, and 0.005 M NaHCO3 (PPM+) and incubated for 90 min at 37°C in an orbital shaker at 200 rpm. Neisseria meningitidis strain MC58 is a serogroup (Sg) B (MenB) isolate (United Kingdom, 1983) of the clonal complex (cc) 32 and was kindly provided by E. R. Moxon (Tettelin et al., 2001 (link)). N. meningitidis Sg C (MenC) strain 8013/clone12 (cc18) was kindly provided by M. Taha (Nassif et al., 1993 (link)). N. meningitidis SgB (MenB) strain α711 (cc32) and N. meningitidis SgW (MenW) strain α275 were isolated during the Bavarian meningococcal carriage study (Claus et al., 2005 (link); Harrison et al., 2013 (link)). N. meningitidis SgW (MenW) strain DE13664 was isolated from CSF. Meningococcal strains DE13664 and α711 were subject to whole-genome sequencing. Genome sequencing was performed on an Illumina NextSeq 500 sequencer (Illumina Inc., San Diego, CA, USA) at the core unit Systems Medicine of the University of Würzburg. The resulting FASTQ files were de novo assembled using the Velvet assembler integrated in Ridom SeqSphere+ software (Ridom GmbH, Münster, Germany). All strains are summarized in Table 1.

Isolated DNA was checked for concentration and quality on a BioTek Synergy HTX plate reader.
Metagenomic libraries were prepared using the Nextera DNA Flex Library Prep Kit (Illumina) per the manufacturer’s instructions with 100 ng of DNA as sample input. The concentration of the libraries was quantified using the Qubit dsDNA HS assay on a Qubit 2.0 fluorometer (Life Technologies). Library size and quality were assessed via the Agilent High Sensitivity D5000 ScreenTape on an Agilent 4200 Tapestation.
Metagenomic libraries were normalized to an equimolar concentration and pooled. The pool was diluted to 1.8 pM, mixed with a 1% PhiX control library and paired-end sequenced (2 × 75 bp) using a NextSeq 500/550 High Output v2 150-cycle Reagent Cartridge on a NextSeq 500 sequencer (Illumina).

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.
