(using CyScribe GFX columns for purification of aa-dUTP-labeled cDNA)

This protocol describes the contents and use of the "Bielefeld Fluorescent Labeling Kit". This kit

allows the synthesis of fluorescently labeled targets from total RNA. In a first step, aminoallyl modified

first strand cDNA can be synthesized by reverse transcription of total RNA using a mixture of

oligodT15VN and random hexamer primers.

Contents of the "Bielefeld Fluorescent Labeling Kit":

The kit contains the following reagents and solutions.

Components stored at -20�C

� Cy5-NHS ester or Alexa647-NHS ester

� in each case, 1/6th of one aliquot of the monoreactive dye from Amersham is used for one

labeling, mg values are not stated by the supplier (estimated between 10 and 50 ?g).

� preparing aliquots: dissolve NHS esters in 10 ?l of water-free DMSO, it is essential to avoid any

contact of the dyes with water prior to labeling. Immediately re-seal DMSO with fresh dessication

packs, aliquot 1.5 ?l of NHS esters into 10 brown Eppendorf tubes, speed-vac in the dark for 45

min, seal dried NHS esters in plastic bags together with dessication packs, store at -20�C

Components stored at RT

� CyScribe GFX columns as well as capture, washing and elution buffer (Amersham Biosciences)

You need to supply

� your favoured total RNA prepared by the methods mentioned above

� unmodified or amino-modified random hexamer primers (dissolved in DEPC-water)

� RNAse-free Eppendorf tubes and tips (e.g. from Peqlab)

� autoclaved MilliQ water

� DEPC-treated water (e.g. from the Qiagen RNeasy kit)

� 80% ethanol (diluted to 80% from absolute ethanol, Merck)

Protocol for labeling reverse-transcribed total RNA for microarray hybridizations

� time required: 4-5 hours including checking target labeling on agarose gels

� preheat the 42�C and 70�C heating blocks 30 min before starting and prepare an ice bucket

� wear gloves. Use filter tips, autoclavable pipetmen and RNAse-free Eppendorf tubes

� thaw DEPC H20, 5xReaction Buffer and primers

Reverse transcription of total RNA to yield aminoallyl-labeled first-strand cDNA

� mix by flicking and spin down:

� 10 to 30 ?g of total RNA purified using Microcon-30 filters up to 18.8 ?l

� random hexamers [5 ?g/?l] 2.0 ?l

� OR amino-modified random hexamers [5 ?g/?l] 2.0 ?l

� add DEPC-treated H2O to 20.8 ?l (duplication of volume is possible until the clean-up step!)

� incubate at 70 �C for 10 min in a heating block

� incubate at 0 �C for 5 min on ice (primer annealing), quickly spin down

During the 0�C incubation, prepare a master mix as follows (volumes are for a 1.0� mix; prepare 1.1 �

volumes per target) in an RNAse-free Eppendorf tube.

� 5�Reaction Buffer 6.0 ?l

� RNase inhibitor [40 U/?l] 0.5 ?l

� BioScript RT [200 U/?l] 1.5 ?l

� 25�dNTP stock solution including aa-dUTP 1.2 ?l

(4:1 aa-dUTP/dTTP nucleotide mix)

� mix by flicking, spin down, leave at RT until use. RNAse Inhibitor, BioScript and 25�dNTP should

be added immediately before use (do NOT store this mix on ice)

� at RT, add 9.2 ?l of the master mix to each annealing reaction, mix by flicking, spin down

� incubate at 42 �C for 90 min in a heating block

� place 0.2 N NaOH, 0.2 N HCl, 1 M sodium bicarbonate and 4 M hydroxylamine at RT

from now on, RNAse-free conditions are not required

� either (for CyScribe GFX purification): wearing gloves, place CyScribe GFX columns (one per

labeling) in collection tubes and prepare one empty 1.5 ml tube per labeling. Label collection

tubes at their side. Do not label the column and make sure during the whole procedure that

columns are not mixed up. Label the 1.5 ml tubes at the side and cut off the lid.

� thaw and vortex 1 M sodium bicarbonate, pH 9.0 to dissolve white precipitates

� prepare 0.1 M sodium bicarbonate (pH 9.0) by diluting the 1 M stock solution in MilliQ water,

vortex 1 M sodium bicarbonate (pH 9.0) to dissolve white precipitates, 60 ?l 0.1 M sodium

bicarbonate (pH 9.0) will be required per labeling reaction. Prepare 80% ethanol from absolute

ethanol using MilliQ water (1.8 ml per labeling).

Hydrolysis of RNA

� add 15 ?l of commercial (DO NOT prepare yourself) 0.2 M NaOH (arrested pipetman!) using

100 ?l filter tips (exact flowout)

� mix by flicking and spin down

� incubate at 70 �C for 10 min in a heating block

� add 15 ?l of commercial (DO NOT prepare yourself) 0.2 M HCl using the arrested pipetman and

100 ?l filter tips (exact flowout), mix immediately by pipetting up and down to avoid precipitates

� either (for CyScribe GFX purification): immediately after each target is neutralized (do not

neutralize all parallel targets first), quickly proceed with CyScribe GFX column purification

In these and the next steps, do NOT use Tris-containing buffers instead of water, since the amino

groups will interfere with the subsequent coupling

Clean-up of aminoallyl-labeled first-strand cDNA

� perform clean-up of aminoallyl-labeled first-strand cDNA using either the following Cyscribe GFX

(recommended) or the Microcon-30 protocol (more time-consuming)

Clean-up of aminoallyl-labeled first-strand cDNA (removal of nucleotides and other low-molecularweight

molecules with amino groups) using CyScribe GFX columns

� directly after neutralization of one labeling reaction add 450 ?l capture buffer to the reaction and

mix by pipetting up and down (proceed with this step until all labeling reactions have been

neutralized and mixed with capture buffer), samples should not stay in capture buffer longer than

5 min

� add the complete neutralized mix to a CyScribe GFX column

� spin at 13.000 rpm for 30 sec at 20�C in a microcentrifuge and discard flowthrough

� add 600 ?l of 80% ethanol (it is very important not to use less concentrated ethanol, do not use

the washing buffer provided with the CyScribe GFX purification kit)

� spin at 13.000 rpm for 30 sec at 20�C in a microcentrifuge and discard flowthrough

� repeat this washing step twice

� spin at 13.000 rpm for 10 sec at 20�C in a microcentrifuge and place column in a new 1.5 ml tube

� add 60 ?l 0.1 M sodium bicarbonate (pH 9.0), do not use the elution buffer provided with the

CyScribe GFX purification kit

� incubate for 5 min at room temperature

� spin at 13.000 rpm for 1 min at 20�C in a microcentrifuge

� storage of first strand cDNA eluted from the column in 0.1 M sodium bicarbonate at -20�C is not

recommended by the manufacturers of aminoallyl fluorescent labeling kits, manufacturers

recommend to proceed immediately with the coupling of fluorescent dyes (below), we have not

observed a negative effect of storage of first strand cDNA in 0.1 M sodium bicarbonate at -20�C

overnight

Coupling of fluorescent dyes to the aminoallyl-labeled first-strand cDNA

� protect samples from light all the time using brown Eppendorf tubes, avoid room light and

direct sunlight

� dissolve Cy3- or Cy5-NHS or Alexa-NHS esters provided in aliquoted form (see above) in brown

Eppendorf tubes in the complete aa-containing first strand cDNA by pipetting up and down

several times until the dye is dissolved (red/blue colour!)

alternatively, 1.5 ?l of fluorescent dye in DMSO (orgininal dye pack aliquot from Amersham

dissolved in 10 ?l DMSO, cannot be stored, always prepare fresh!) can be added to the aacontaining

first strand cDNA solution

� from now on, work in brown Eppendorf tubes to protect the fluorescent dyes

� do NOT spin down, just tap down drops from the side of the Eppendorf tubes

� incubate for 1 h at RT in the dark (up to 2 h is possible)

Quenching (blocking of all remaining dyes with the amino groups from the hydroxylamine)

� add 4.5 ?l of 4 M hydroxylamine

� mix by flicking, do NOT spin down

� leave for 15 min at RT in the dark

Clean-up of fluorescently labeled targets using CyScribe GFX Purification Kit (Amersham Biosciences)

Cy5- and Cy3-labeled targets to be hybridized simultanuously to one microarray are cleaned up

together. In the event that only one of either dye is used for hybridization or has to be purified for other

purposes, use the same volumes as specified below.

� work quickly to protect labeled targets from the light, Cy5 bleaches quickly and is

particularly sensitive to high ozone concentrations!

� add 600 ?l capture buffer (CyScribe GFX Purification Kit, Amersham Biosciences) to the Cy5-

labeled sample and mix by pipetting up and down, then add the Cy3-labeled sample to this

solution and mix by pipetting up and down

� apply all to a GFX column in a collection tube (CyScribe GFX Purification Kit), do not leave the

sample in capture buffer for more than 5 min

� spin at full speed (appr. 10.000-13.000 rpm) for 30 sec

� discard flowthrough

� add 600 ?l washing buffer (CyScribe GFX Purification Kit)

� spin at full speed (appr. 10.000-13.000 rpm) for 30 sec

� discard flowthrough

� add 600 ?l washing buffer (CyScribe GFX Purification Kit)

� spin at full speed (appr. 10.000-13.000 rpm) for 30 sec

� discard flowthrough

� add 600 ?l washing buffer (CyScribe GFX Purification Kit)

� spin at full speed (appr. 10.000-13.000 rpm) for 30 sec

� discard flowthrough

� spin at full speed (appr. 10.000-13.000 rpm) for 10 sec

� transfer the dried GFX column to a fresh brown Eppendorf tube labeled at the side, since the

cover lid has to be cut off

� add 60 ?l elution buffer (CyScribe GFX Purification Kit) to the center of the filter

� leave for 5 min at RT

� spin at full speed (appr. 10.000-13.000 rpm) for 1 min

� the resulting 60 ?l of combined Cy3/Cy5-labeled targets are transferred to a fresh brown tube with

a screw cap. Label on the sides and seal with "Tesafilm".

� remove 2 ?l into a normal Eppendorf tube for target checking on agarose gels

� freeze this aliquot as well as the 58 ?l Cy-labeled target at -20 �C until use

� prepare 250 ml or 500 ml, respectively (250 ml are needed for each individual washing step

listed below), of the washing buffers in demineralized water from appropriate stocks

(20�SSC, 10 %(w/v) SDS), preheat 2�SSC, 0.2 %(w/v) SDS washing buffer to 42�C and

cool the 0.05�SSC washing buffer to 18 �C

� prepare 2 black plastic boxes and one black plastic slide rack. Also prepare an 12x8 cm petri

dish (Genomics Solutions) containing 1 Kim-wipe and stacks of three used slides each at the

sides

� just before the program terminates, pour 250 ml 2�SSC, 0.2 %(w/v) SDS washing buffer

prewarmed to 42�C in 1 black plastic box

� wearing gloves, remove the slide adapters one by one from the hybridization modules (do

not touch the DNA side of the slide, only touch the edges of the slide!), quickly remove the

slides one by one from the adapter and place them into the black plastic slide rack that is

immersed in the first container in the prewarmed 2�SSC, 0.2 %(w/v) SDS washing buffer

� move up and down several times immediately and shake for 1 min on a horizontal shaker

after removal of the last slide. From now on regularly move slide racks up and down to avoid

air bubble formation

� proceed with the following washing steps:

- transfer to 0.2�SSC, 0.1 %(w/v) SDS (RT, at most 24�C) in a black plastic rack, shake for

1 min

- transfer to 0.2�SSC, 0.1 %(w/v) SDS (RT, at most 24�C) in a black plastic rack, shake for

(Parameters: Chamber type = OTHER: HS4800 chamber, Quantity of label target used = 100, Mass unit = Nano gram, time = 90, Tiny time unit = minutes, Volume = 100, Volume unit = Nano litre, temperature = 42) When the optical density (600nm) of the FZB42 culture reached around 3.0, the culture was mixed with 0.5V killing buffer and immdiately centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 5 min at room temperature. The pellets were washed with 2 ml killing buffer and then centrifuged again. The pellets were quickly frozen by liquid nitrogen and then stored at -80�C till use. The harvested cells were washed twice with killing buffer and then resuspended into TE buffer containing lysozyme. Subsequently, buffer RA1 was used to lyse the cells. The lysate was filtrated before adjusting the conditions for bind RNA onto the silica membrane of NucleoSpin� RNA L column (Macherey & Nagel). DNA was removed by treatment with DNase. After being washed, the purified RNA was eluted from the column.The detailed information refer to the manufacturer's guideline.
