The Expressed Exome Capture Sequencing protocol is designed to create exome capture probes directly from RNA. The probes are then used from hybrid capture of exome DNA sequences, allowing for genotyping of alleles at expressed genes.
WARNING: These protocols are abridged versions of the manufacturers recommended protocols. Use of these protocols assumes familiarity with manufacutrers instructions. Please read manufacturers instructions if this is your first time (or first time in a while) performing these procedures.
- Takes 1.5 hours
- Takes 0.5 hours
- Takes 1/2 day to get results back. Can only get bioanalyzer runs on M, T, W.
- Takes 45 minutes
- Anneal the SAI adapters designed for Illumina TruSeq. The Pinsky Lab uses an SAI1 adapter and an SAI1-no-N adapter. Use one or the other equally among samples.
- Takes 6 hours
- There are safe stopping points within this protocol.
- Takes 1/2 hour.
This is a safe stopping point. If you are stopping for more than a week, store your sample at ‐15° to ‐25°C.
- Takes 6 hours (5 hours on thermocycler)
- Takes 1 hour
This is a safe stopping point. If you are stopping, store your sample at ‐15° to ‐25°C.
- Takes 1/2 hour.
- Use a sample volume of 80ul and an ampure volume of 128ul.
- Conduct the cleanup in a 1.7mL tube.
- Elute 25ul into a 200uL tube using 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0).
- Takes 1/2 hour plus thermocycler time.
- Takes 1/2 hour
- Use a sample volume of 50ul and an ampure volume of 80ul.
- Conduct the cleanup in a 1.7mL tube.
- Elute 22 μl of 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0) into a 200uL tube.
- Takes 1/2 hour.
Split finished cDNA library for each sample into two vials
- One tube for sequencing
- One tube for probe synthesis
Note that this step is optional as sequening the probes directly is not necessary for exome capture analysis. Alternatively, a portion of the mRNA library can be saved before DSN normalization for sequencing.
This is a safe stopping point. If you are stopping, store your sample at ‐15° to ‐25°C.
- Takes 17 hours, 16 is on thermocycler (overnight).
- Takes 1/2 day to get results back. Can only get bioanalyzer runs on M, T, W.
- Check against the bioanalyzer results in the Puritz protocol to make sure everything looks the way it should.
This is a safe stopping point. If you are stopping, store your sample at ‐15° to ‐25°C.
