Protocol for Reverse Transcription and Amino-allyl Coupling of RNA

 

 

 

 

 

The following is a slight modificatioundefined of a protocol developed by Joe DeRisi (UCSF) and Rosetta Inpharmatics (Kirkland, WA).  Original document can be obtained at www.microarrays.org.

 

 

 

 

A.  RT Reaction

 

 

 

 

 

1.  To anneal primer, mix 1-2 m g mRNA with 5 ug of anchored oligo-dT [(dT)20 -VN] (Operon, HPLC purified) in a total volume of 18 m L. One reaction for sample mRNA and one for reference mRNA.

2.  Heat to 70C for 10 minutes.  Cool on ice for 5 minutes.

 

 

3.  Add 11.6 m L of nucleotide mix to each of  Cy3 and Cy5 reactions.

Add approx. 6.8 m L 1N NaOH.  Final pH is roughly 7.0 using pH paper.

100 m M dTTP

 

 

 

 

4.  Incubate reaction for 1 hour at 42C.  Add additional 1 m L reverse transcriptase and continue incubation at 42C for an additional 1 hour.

 

 

 

 

B.  Hydrolysis

 

 

 

 

 

1.  Degrade RNA by addition of 15 m L of 0.1 N NaOH.  Incubate at 70C for 10 minutes

 

2.  Neutralize by addition of 15 m L 0.1 N HCl. 

 

 

 

 

To continue with the amino-allyl dye coupling procedure, all Tris must be removed from the reaction to prevent the monofunctional NHS-ester Cy-dyes from coupling to free amine groups in solution.

 

 

 

 

 

3.  Add 450 m L water to each reaction.

 

 

 

 

C.  Cleanup

 

 

 

 

 

Add 500 m L neutralized, diluted reaction mix to a Microcon-30 filter (Amicon).

 

 

 

 

Spin at 12g for 7 minutes.

 

 

 

 

 

Discard flow through.

 

 

 

 

 

Repeat process two more times, refilling original filter with 450 m L water.  Concentrate to 10 m L.  Samples can be stored at -20C indefinitely.

 

 

 

 

D.  Coupling

 

 

 

 

 

Add 0.5 m L 1M sodium bicarbonate, pH 9.0 to 50 mM final.  Check 1M stock solution periodically for fluctuations in pH.

 

 

 

 

Monofunctional NHS-ester Cy3 (PA23001) and Cy5 dye (PA25001, Amersham) is supplied as a dry pellet.  Each tube is sufficient to label 10 reactions under normal conditions.  Dissolve dry pellet in 20 m L DMSO.  Aliquot 2 m L into 10 single use tubes that are then dried in vacuo and store desiccated at 4C. NHS-ester conjugated Cy dye is rapidly hydrolyzed in water, therefore, do not store in DMSO or water.  Decreasing the number of aliquots/dye tube may increase your signal.

 

 

 

 

If you have already made aliquots of dye, simply transfer your cDNA in bicarbonate buffer (10.5 m L) to the aliquot of dye.  Alternatively, dissolve Cy dye in 10 ul DMSO and add 1 m L of dye to 10.5 m L of the cDNA reaction.  10% DMSO in the coupling reaction will not affect the chemical reaction.  Aliquot unused dye and dry immediately. 

 

 

 

 

Incubate 1 hour at RT in the dark.  Mix every 15 minutes.

 

 

 

 

 

E.  Quenching and Cleanup

 

 

 

 

 

Before combining Cy3 and Cy5 samples for hybridization, unreactive NHS-ester Cy dye must be quenched to prevent cross coupling.

 

 

 

 

 

Add 4.5 m L 4M hydroxylamine (Sigma).

 

 

 

 

Let reaction incubate 15 minutes in the dark.

 

 

 

 

 

To remove unincorporated/quenched Cy dyes, proceed with Qia-Quick PCR purification kit (QIAGEN). Method described below is as specified by manufacturer.

 

 

 

 

 

Combine Cy3 and Cy5 reactions.

 

 

Add 70 m L water.

 

Add 500 m L Buffer PB.

 

Apply to Qia-quick column and spin at 13K for 30-60 seconds.  (optional:  reapply flow-though for optimal binding).

 

 

Decant flow-through.

 

 

Add 750 m L Buffer PE and spin 30-60 seconds.

 

Decant flow-through.

 

 

Spin at high speed to dry column.

 

 

Transfer spin unit to fresh eppendorf tube.

 

 

Add 30 m L Buffer EB to center of filter and allow to sit 3 minutes at RT.

 

Spin at 13K rpm for 1 minute.

 

 

Repeat elution step again with another 30 m L of Buffer EB.

 

Pool eluates. 

 

 

 

 

 

Add 20 m L (20 m g) Cot DNA (Gibco).

 

Add 420 TE and apply to fresh Microcon-30 filter.

 

 

Spin 12,000g to a volume of 29 m L or less.

 

 

 

 

For 38 m L array hybridization:

 

29 m L cDNA probe in TE

 

1 m L polyA (10 m g; Sigma P9403)

 

1 m L tRNA (10 m g; Gibco #15401-029)

 

7 m L 20X SSC

 

1.2 m L SDS 10%

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Heat to 100C for 2 minutes.  Let stand 15 minutes RT. 

 

 

Apply 38 m L to 40K array.
