A Rapid and effective method for RNA extraction from different tissues of grapevine and other woody plants 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Introduction – RNA quality and integrity are critical for many studies in plant molecular biology. High‐quality RNA extraction from grapevine and other woody plants is problematic due to the presence of polysaccharides, polyphenolics and other compounds that bind or co‐precipitate with the RNA. Objective – To develop an optimised cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)‐based protocol, to reduce the time and cost of extraction without reducing quality and yield of RNA extracted from polysaccharide‐rich tissues of several plants. Methodology – Several changes were introduced to the original CTAB protocol. All centrifugation steps were carried out at 4°C, the sample weight was decreased and the concentrations of PVP‐40 and LiCl were increased reducing incubation time prior to RNA precipitation. This rapid CTAB protocol was compared with six different RNA extraction methods from three grapevine tissues, namely, in vitro plantlets, and leaves and mature canes from actively growing field vines. Results – The rapid CTAB method gave high‐quality RNA in only 3 h at low cost with efficiency equal to or higher than that obtained with other time‐consuming and expensive protocols. The procedure was applied to RNA extraction from other grapevine tissues and other woody species including olive, lemon, poplar, chestnut, apple, pear, peach, cherry, apricot, plum and kiwi fruit. RNA of high quality could be isolated from all tissues and from all species. Conclusion – The study has shown that the improvement of a CTAB‐based protocol allows the rapid isolation of high‐quality RNA from grapevine and many woody species.

We describe an optimized procedure for protein extraction performed simultaneously with that of DNA and RNA from a single tissue sample that is, unlike the original protocol, suitable for quantitative studies. This optimized protocol is particularly well adapted to studies where gene regulation at DNA, RNA, and protein levels must be examined simultaneously, and when the amount of starting biological material is limited. We applied this procedure to the study of factors affecting both qualitatively and quantitatively the extraction of DNA, RNA, and proteins from lymphocytes of very old individuals, since we observed variability in the recovery of these molecular species with advanced age. Therefore, we investigated the combined effects of age and time delay between blood collection and lymphocyte isolation on the recovery of DNA, RNA, and proteins simultaneously extracted from Danish nonagenarians and centenarians versus younger adult samples. Our results suggest that neither RNA nor DNA nor protein contents of lymphocytes are altered with aging. However, the quantity of RNA and protein recovery is affected by a 24-h delay in blood processing. This effect is more pronounced in the oldest, particularly for RNA, and may affect data interpretation of age-dependent gene expression studies. 相似文献

Blood samples are used as a biological source to discover biomarkers of hematological and non-hematological disorders. The present study shows the impact of different experimental conditions associated with cell lysis buffer, TRI-reagent protocol and blood cell storage buffer and their correlation with the quantity, quality and Adrenomedullin gene expression levels of total RNA when RT-PCR technique is used. A leukocyte cell bank protocol is also proposed for further mRNA expression analysis using RNAlater as storage buffer. There is evidence that total RNA isolated from leukocyte concentrate stored for 1 month at -70 degrees C did not show significant differences concerning quality, purity and Adrenomedullin gene expression compared with the freshly processed leukocyte sample. 相似文献

The human gastrointestinal (GI) tract contains a complex microbial community that consists of numerous uncultured microbes. Therefore, nucleic-acid-based approaches have been introduced to study microbial diversity and activity, and these depend on the proper isolation of DNA, rRNA and mRNA. Here, we present an RNA isolation protocol that is suitable for a wide variety of GI tract samples. The procedure for isolating DNA from GI tract samples is described in another Nature Protocols article. One of the benefits of our RNA isolation protocol is that sampling can be performed outside the laboratory, which offers possibilities for implementation in large intervention studies. The RNA isolation is based on mechanical disruption, followed by isolation of nucleic acids using phenol:chloroform:isoamylalcohol extraction and removal of DNA. In our laboratory, this protocol has resulted in the isolation of rRNA and mRNA of sufficient quality and quantity for microbial diversity and activity studies. Depending on the number of samples, the sample type and the quenching procedure chosen, the whole procedure can be performed within 2.5-4 h. 相似文献

This is the first report about the simultaneous extraction of nucleic acids and proteins from tea leaf tissue. Using the present protocol, the DNA, RNA and protein were simultaneously isolated from a single tea leaf sample. The method also maintained the quality and quantity of the isolated biomolecules. The method is cost-effective and takes only 3 h to isolate the starting molecules (DNA, RNA and protein) of central dogma of biology. It was also demonstrated that the isolated DNA, RNA and protein could be successfully used for genomics and proteomic analysis in tea plant which was verified by performing marker study, gene cloning, cDNA preparation, gene expression study and 2-DE. 相似文献

Introduction – It is prerequisite and crucial to extract RNA with high quality and integrity in order to carry out molecular biology studies in any plant species of a family. Euphorbiaceae members are known for high levels of their waxes, oils with polysaccharides, polyphenolics and secondary metabolites. These conditions are recognised to interfere unfavourably with various methodologies of RNA isolation. Objective – To develop a simple, rapid and reproducible cetyltrimethylamonium bromide (CTAB)‐based protocol, to reduce the time and cost of extraction without reducing quality and yield of RNA extracted from various recalcitrant Euphorbiaceae member plant tissues such as from tree leaves (Hevea brasilensis), woody shrubs leaves (Ricinus communis, Jatropha curcas, Manihot esculenta) and storage root tissue (M. esculenta). Methodology – Simple modifications and fast steps were introduced to the original CTAB protocol. All centrifugation steps were carried out at 4°C at 12000 rpm for 10 min, the sample weight was decreased and usage of spermidine and LiCl was omitted, reducing incubation time prior to RNA precipitation. This rapid CTAB protocol was compared with various RNA isolation methods intended for use with plants rich in polysaccharides and secondary metabolites. Results – The procedure can be completed within 2 h and many samples can be processed at the same time. RNA of high quality could be isolated from all the tissues of species that we tried. The isolated RNA from different species served as a robust template for RT‐PCR analysis. Conclusion – The study has shown that the improvement of a CTAB‐based protocol allows the rapid isolation of high‐quality RNA from various recalcitrant Euphorbiaceae members.

New platforms allow quantification of gene expression from large, replicated experiments but current sampling protocols for
plant tissue using immediate flash freezing in liquid nitrogen are a barrier to these high-throughput studies. In this study,
we compared four sampling methods for RNA extraction for gene expression analysis: (1) the standard sampling method of flash
freezing whole leaves in liquid nitrogen immediately upon removal from the plant; (2) incubation of excised leaf disks for
2 min at field temperature followed by flash freezing; (3) incubation of excised leaf disks for 1 h on ice followed by flash
freezing; and (4) incubation of excised leaf disks for 1 h at field temperature followed by flash freezing. Gene expression
analysis was done for 23 genes using nCounter, and normalization of the data was done using the geometric mean of five housekeeping
genes. Quality of RNA was highest for protocol A and lowest for protocol D. Despite some differences in RNA quality, gene
expression was not significantly different among protocols A, B, and C for any of the 23 genes. Expression of some genes was
significantly different between protocol D and the other protocols. This study demonstrates that when sampling leaf disks
for gene expression analysis, the time between tissue removal from the plant and flash freezing in liquid nitrogen can be
extended. This increase in time allowable during sampling provides greater flexibility in sampling large replicated field
experiments for statistical analysis of gene expression data. 相似文献

High-quality RNA from cells isolated by laser capture microdissection 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

Laser capture microdissection (LCM) provides a rapid and simple method for procuring homogeneous populations of cells. However, reproducible isolation of intact RNAfrom these cells can be problematic; the sample may deteriorate before or during sectioning, RNA may degrade during slide staining and LCM, and inadequate extraction and isolation methods may lead to poor recovery. Our report describes an optimized protocol for preparation of frozen sections for LCM using the HistoGene Frozen Section Staining Kit. This slide preparation method is combined with the PicoPure RNA Isolation Kitfor extraction and isolation of RNA from low numbers of microdissected cells. The procedure is easy to perform, rapid, and reproducible. Our results show that the RNA isolated from the LCM samples prepared according to our protocol is of high quality. The RNA maintains its integrity as shown by RT-PCR detection of genes of different abundance levels and by electrophoretic analysis of ribosomal RNA. RNA obtained by this method has also been used to synthesize probes for interrogating cDNA microarray analyses to study expression levels of thousands of genes from LCM samples. 相似文献

A Modified Protocol for RNA Extraction from Different Peach Tissues Suitable for Gene Isolation and Real-Time PCR Analysis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
RNA extraction is the first step in the study of gene isolation and expression. However, it is difficult to extract high quantity
and quality RNA from tissues containing large quantities of polysaccharides and polyphenols. Peach (Prunus persica), in addition to containing high levels of polysaccharides and polyphenols, is a challenging starting material for RNA isolation
using a single method because of different amounts of those substances in diverse tissues. Based on three reported methods,
we developed a modified RNA isolation protocol to solve this problem, leading to high quality and quantity of total RNA from
peach mesocarp tissues of fruits which were sampled from all developmental stages and different storage periods, as well as
from other tissues including flowers, leaves, stems, and roots. With our modified method, 28–650 μg of total RNA was routinely
obtained from per gram of fresh material, gave at least a 1.16-fold improvement by compared with those isolated by other seven
methods. The RNA extracts were successfully used in downstream applications such as RT-PCR, RACE, and real-time PCR. 相似文献

We report an improved method for total nucleic acids extraction from rumen content samples. The method employs bead beating,
and phenol-chloroform extraction followed by saline-alcohol precipitation. Total nucleic acids and RNA yield and purity were
assessed by spectrophotometric measurements; RNA integrity was estimated using Agilent RNA 6000 Nano Kit on an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. The method provided total nucleic acids and RNA extracts of good quantity and quality. The extraction is
not time consuming and it is valuable for ecological studies of rumen microbial community structure and gene expression. 相似文献

The study of gene expression in maize varieties represents a powerful tool aiming to increase vitamin A precursors. However, the isolation of RNA from different maize varieties is challenging because these varieties show different levels of polysaccharides, and most methods available for RNA isolation are inappropriate for grain samples. The polysaccharides co-purify and co-precipitate with RNA during isolation, resulting in low-quality RNA, compromising the use of RNA in subsequent applications. Thus, a cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-based method was adapted in this study and compared with six methods for RNA isolation, including commercial reagents and RNA and DNA isolation kits, in order to identify the most appropriate for maize grains from different varieties. Most of the methods evaluated were considered inadequate due to limitations in terms of purity and/or quantity of the isolated RNA, which affected the efficiency of subsequent RT-qPCR analysis, resulting in nonamplification of β-carotene hydroxylase gene (HYD3) or high deviation among replicates. However, the CTAB modified method allowed the study to obtain intact RNA, with high quality and quantity, from 25 maize varieties. Furthermore, this RNA was successfully used to evaluate the expression of HYD3 gene by real-time qualitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), and thus represents a simple, efficient, and low-cost strategy. 相似文献

A procedure for the small-scale isolation of plant RNA suitable for RNA blot analysis 总被引:31,自引:0,他引:31
A small-scale method for the isolation of total RNA from plant tissue is described. The method provides RNA of suitable quantity and quality from 0.2 g fresh tissue for the detection of mRNA species by RNA blot analysis. The entire procedure is adapted to 1.5-ml microfuge tubes and takes less than 5 h. This method is well suited for the isolation of RNA from large numbers of samples or from samples of limited quantity. 相似文献
