A method for isolating total RNA from pear leaves

Isolation of high quality RNA fromRosaceae species is particularly difficult. These plants contain considerable amounts of plant polyphenolic compounds and polysaccharides that copurify with RNA, often rendering it unsuitable for either cDNA synthesis and/or hybridization in northern analyses. We describe a method for RNA isolation from pear leaves that is modified from that of Manning (1990). The procedure includes i) an extraction with phenol and PVPP, to remove proteins and polyphenols ii) two purifications by LiCl, with a 2-butoxyethanol treatment between the LiCl steps. The method results in high quality RNA suitable for RT-PCR and northern blot experiments.     

A simple and efficient protocol for isolation of high quality functional RNA from different tissues of turmeric (Curcuma longa L.)

Many experiments in plant molecular biology require processing of a large number of RNA samples and in some cases large quantities are required for a single application. In turmeric, a major spice and medicinal plant, a protocol for RNA isolation is not available. The major difficulty encountered while using other popular protocols is the low yield and quality of RNA which hampers the downstream applications like qRT-PCR, cDNA synthesis and micro RNA isolation. Commercial kits though available are costly and were found to be unsuccessful in case of rhizomes and root tissues that are rich in polyphenols, polysaccharides and alkaloids. It was thus felt that a quick, handy and cheap protocol of total RNA isolation from different tissues of turmeric was required for day to day working in our lab. The new protocol utilizes SDS based extraction buffer including β-mercaptoethanol and PVP with sequential acid phenol:chloroform extraction to remove polyphenols and proteins, followed by the purification with sodium acetate to eliminate polysaccharides. The protocol is simple and can be completed in less than 3 h. The RNA yield from rhizome was higher by more than fivefold with both A_260/280 and A_260/230 ratio in the range of 1.8–2.0. The protocol worked well with leaf, rhizome, pseudostem and root tissues with RIN >7.0 and the isolated RNA could be successfully used for cDNA synthesis, RT-PCR, qRT-PCR and small RNA isolation including microRNA.     

Optimization of enzymatic reaction conditions for generating representative pools of cDNA from small RNA

Small regulatory RNA repertoires in biological samples are heterogeneous mixtures that may include species arising from varied biosynthetic pathways and modification events. Small RNA profiling and discovery approaches ought to capture molecules in a way that is representative of expression level. It follows that the effects of RNA modifications on representation should be minimized. The collection of high-quality, representative data, therefore, will be highly dependent on bias-free sample manipulation in advance of quantification. We examined the impact of 2'-O-methylation of the 3'-terminal nucleotide of small RNA on key enzymatic reactions of standard front-end manipulation schemes. Here we report that this common modification negatively influences the representation of these small RNA species. Deficits occurred at multiple steps as determined by gel analysis of synthetic input RNA and by quantification and sequencing of derived cDNA pools. We describe methods to minimize the effects of 2'-O-methyl modification of small RNA 3'-termini using T4 RNA ligase 2 truncated, and other optimized reaction conditions, demonstrating their use by quantifying representation of miRNAs and piRNAs in cDNA pools prepared from biological samples.     

Bacterial Artificial Chromosomes: A Functional Genomics Tool for the Study of Positive-strand RNA Viruses

Reverse genetics, an approach to rescue infectious virus entirely from a cloned cDNA, has revolutionized the field of positive-strand RNA viruses, whose genomes have the same polarity as cellular mRNA. The cDNA-based reverse genetics system is a seminal method that enables direct manipulation of the viral genomic RNA, thereby generating recombinant viruses for molecular and genetic studies of both viral RNA elements and gene products in viral replication and pathogenesis. It also provides a valuable platform that allows the development of genetically defined vaccines and viral vectors for the delivery of foreign genes. For many positive-strand RNA viruses such as Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), however, the cloned cDNAs are unstable, posing a major obstacle to the construction and propagation of the functional cDNA. Here, the present report describes the strategic considerations in creating and amplifying a genetically stable full-length infectious JEV cDNA as a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) using the following general experimental procedures: viral RNA isolation, cDNA synthesis, cDNA subcloning and modification, assembly of a full-length cDNA, cDNA linearization, in vitro RNA synthesis, and virus recovery. This protocol provides a general methodology applicable to cloning full-length cDNA for a range of positive-strand RNA viruses, particularly those with a genome of >10 kb in length, into a BAC vector, from which infectious RNAs can be transcribed in vitro with a bacteriophage RNA polymerase.
