To make strand-specific mRNA libraries, we adapted the method of Parkhomchuk et al. (Nucl. Acids Res., 2009, doi: 10.1093/nar/gkp596). In a comparison of several different strand-specific methods, Levin et al. (Nat Methods 2010, 7:709-715) found the dUTP method to be among the most reliable tested. Our method has been optimized for the Illumina TruSeq RNA sample preparation kit, but it can likely be used for any library construction method that procedes via polymerase-mediated double-stranded cDNA/second strand synthesis.

Materials required for making Strand-Specific mRNAseq Illumina libraries via dUTP

• 48 well plate or RNase-free, non-sticky 1.5 mL tubes

• Illumina TruSeq RNA Sample preparation kit (Illumina #RS930-2001; manual 15008136 Rev. A, November 2010)

• Superscript III first strand synthesis kit (Invitrogen 18080-051)

• NEBNext Second Strand Synthesis Buffer, dNTP-Free (NEB B6117S)

• NEBNext mRNA Second Strand Synthesis enzyme mix (NEB E6111S)

• 2 mM dNTP/ 4 mM dUTP Mix (Fermentas R0251)

• USER (uracil-specific excision reagent) Enzyme mix (NEB M5505S)

• 5M NH4OAc; Glycoblue (Ambion) or similar coprecipitant; 100% Ethanol; RNAse-free water

---- First Strand Synthesis (page 44) ---

1. Perform First Strand Synthesis (FSS) reaction as directed.


---- When the FSS reaction is complete, clean RNA using Sephadex G-50 ---

2. Add dry Sephadex G-50 (Sigma, cat# G-50-150) to Millipore 45μL column loader (Millipore, cat# MACL 09645).

5. Tap on the top of the column loader to release the resin.

6. Add 300 μL of dH2O to each well. Let stand at room temperature for 3 hours to allow resin to swell.

7. Once resin has swollen in the Multiscreen plates, these plates can be sealed with Saran Wrap and stored at 4°C for several weeks in a sealed plastic container containing a damp paper towel to assure they are kept moist.
