Detailed Notes for Total RNA Extraction from Douglas-fir Needles
Day 1
1. Samples (100 mg-200 mg) should be placed in a Fast-Prep grinding tube containing two ceramic beads (with or without garnet – doesn’t matter)
2. Add flaked dry ice to the 24 position Fast-Prep teflon grind adaptor. Grind tissues using two pulses of 20 seconds each, angular momentum of 4. Make sure that the tissue stays frozen and that it is ground to a fine powder.
3. After grinding, add 1 mL of hot (65C) RNA Extraction Buffer to each tube. Shake or vortex vigorously until the ground dried tissue is completely resuspended.
4. Incubate mixture for 15 min in a heat block at 65C; mix vigorously by inverting tubes every 3 min.
5. Place the tubes in the centrifuge; spin at 9500g x 10 min, room temperature.
6. Transfer supernatant (~850-900 l) to a clean 2 mL RNase-free tube. Add 1 volume of 24:1 CIA to each sample, mix well by inverting tube for 30 seconds.
7. Place the tubes in the centrifuge; spin at 9500g x 5 min, room temperature.
8. Transfer supernatant (~600-700 l) to a clean 1.5 mL RNase-free tube.
--- optional back-extraction for maximal RNA recovery --- 8b. Add 100l of RNA Extraction Buffer to the aqueous layer of the sample tube containing chloroform. 8c. Mix well, then re-centrifuge at 9500g x 5 min, room temperature. 8d. Remove the supernatant (~100 ul); add it to the 1.5 mL tube from step 8.
9. Add 0.4 volumes of 7.5M LiCl solution to supernatant from step 8 (final [LiCl] concentration is 2M). Mix well by inverting tubes and precipitate overnight at 4C.
Volumes to use
Day 2
10. Centrifuge solution at 9000g x 20 min, 4C. Discard the supernatant carefully. Let the pellet briefly air dry (5 min) by inverting the tube on towel paper.
11. Thoroughly resuspend the RNA pellet in 400 l of Zymo RNA Lysis buffer, then resume the Zymo process at step 5.
12. Add 320 l of 95 – 100% ethanol (0.8 volumes) to the sample and mix well.
13. Transfer the mixture to a Zymo-Spin IIC column in a collection tube. Centrifuge at > 12000g x 30 seconds. Discard flow through.
14. Add 400 l of RNA Prep Buffer to the column. Centrifuge at > 12000g x 60 seconds. Discard flow through, and replace Zymo-Spin IIC column back into the same collection tube.
15. Add 800 l RNA Wash Buffer to the column. Centrifuge at > 12000g x 30 seconds s. Discard flow through, and replace Zymo-Spin IIC column back into the same collection tube. Repeat the wash with 400 l RNA Wash Buffer.
16. Centrifuge the Zymo-Spin IIC column at > 12000g x 2 minutes in the empty collection tube to ensure complete removal of the wash buffer.
17. Carefully remove the Zymo-Spin IIC column from the collection tube and place into an RNase free tube. Add 25 l of RNA Storage Solution directly to the column; let stand one minute.
18. Centrifuge the Zymo-Spin IIC column at 10000g x 30 seconds to elute RNA.
19. Estimate RNA concentration using Qubit.
20. If DNA needs to be removed, treat with DNA-free Turbo kit.
