Holobiont Integration August DNA RNA Extractions

August DNA RNA Extractions

20190801 E.S.

DNA/RNA Extractions from Montipora capitata and Pocillopora acuta adult coral fragments from Holobiont Integration Hawaii 2018 project.

Soft and Hard homogenization, and DNA/RNA Extractions followed this protocol. General Zymo Duet DNA/RNA Extraction protocol found here. With the following changes:

  • DNA: The first and second elutions were spun down in separate microcentrifuge tubes to compare the quantity and quality between the first and second elution. The first elution had no incubation period (previously 5 minutes) with 10 μl of Tris buffer and the second elution had a 15 minute incubation period (previously 5 minutes) with 100 μl of Tris buffer.
  • 10 μl aliquots of DNA and 5 μl aliquots of RNA (instead of 10 μl of each).

Coral fragments were randomly chosen from different timepoint bags.

  • 10 μl aliquots of DNA and 5 μl aliquots of RNA (instead of 10 μl of each).

Coral fragments were randomly chosen from different timepoint bags.

DNA samples atypically put in green spin-away columns (green columns are usually used for RNA samples), but Zymo webpage states green spin-away columns can be used for DNA and/or RNA. DNA samples measured on the Qubit before proceeding with RNA samples. DNA/RNA shield atypically used instead of Wash Buffer during DNA extraction.

DNA samples #260 and #266 have final elution volume of 80 μl.

Fragment preparation start 9:25 end 9:43
Soft/Hard homogenization start 9:44 end 10:10

  • 10 μl aliquots of DNA and 5 μl aliquots of RNA (instead of 10 μl of each).
  • 2 coral fragments were used twice (6 coral fragments, 2 of which were done twice. 8 bead tubes used total) to compare DNA quality after the addition of a RNA/DNA shield wash. 500 μl of RNA/DNA shield “wash” step added before the 700 μl of Wash Buffer step for the duplicate extractions.

Coral fragments were randomly chosen from different timepoint bags.

  • DNA: The first and second elutions were spun down in separate microcentrifuge tubes to compare the quantity and quality between the first and second elution. The first elution had no incubation period (previously 5 minutes) with 10 μl of Tris buffer and the second elution had a 15 minute incubation period (previously 5 minutes) with 100 μl of Tris buffer.

Coral fragments were randomly chosen from different timepoint bags.

DNA/RNA Extractions from Montipora capitata and Pocillopora acuta adult coral fragments from Holobiont Integration Hawaii 2018 project.

Soft and Hard homogenization, and DNA/RNA Extractions followed this protocol. General Zymo Duet DNA/RNA Extraction protocol found here. With the following changes:

  • DNA: The first and second elutions were spun down in separate microcentrifuge tubes to compare the quantity and quality between the first and second elution. The first elution had no incubation period (previously 5 minutes) with 10 μl of Tris buffer and the second elution had a 15 minute incubation period (previously 5 minutes) with 100 μl of Tris buffer.
  • 10 μl aliquots of DNA and 5 μl aliquots of RNA (instead of 10 μl of each).

Coral fragments were randomly chosen from different timepoint bags.

Qubit used to check DNA and RNA quantity (ng/μl).
TapeStation used to check RNA quality.

DNA/RNA Extractions from Montipora capitata and Pocillopora acuta adult coral fragments from Holobiont Integration Hawaii 2018 project.

Soft and Hard homogenization, and DNA/RNA Extractions followed this protocol. General Zymo Duet DNA/RNA Extraction protocol found here. With the following changes:

  • DNA: The first and second elutions were spun down in separate microcentrifuge tubes to compare the quantity and quality between the first and second elution. The first elution had no incubation period (previously 5 minutes) with 10 μl of Tris buffer and the second elution had a 15 minute incubation period (previously 5 minutes) with 100 μl of Tris buffer.
  • 10 μl aliquots of DNA and 5 μl aliquots of RNA (instead of 10 μl of each).

Coral fragments were randomly chosen from different timepoint bags.

Qubit used to check DNA and RNA quantity (ng/μl).
TapeStation used to check RNA quality.

DNA Standard 1: 202.97 ng/μl
DNA Standard 2: 22,380.18 ng/μl
RNA Standard 1: 394.22 ng/μl
