Protocol

Based on Putnam Lab DNA RNA Duet Extraction Protocol and Zymo Research Kit.

After clipping fragments and placing them into the sample tube. The goal is to have all the samples start with this volume of coral.

coral-pre

After 2 minute vortex step, this is what the sample tube will look like. The goal is to have almost all of the tissue off of the coral skeleton. Montipora spp. can be difficult to do this without resulting in lower quality DNA/RNA because they are so mucus-y.

All Oct 2 2019 samples are completely degraded. These samples likely thawed in transit at some point. Dec 4 2019 look great.

2021-02-10 Extractions (7-12)

Since Oct 2 2019 was degraded, we wanted to try to extraction from 2 corals from Sept 2019, Oct 16 2019, and Oct 30 2019. All four timepoints from the Fall of 2019 are degraded: 2019-09-16, 2019-10-02, 2019-10-16, and 2019-10-30.

20210211 Nanodrop 12-4-2019 samples

Nandropped three M. capitata samples in the GSC.

The ratio of absorbance at 260 nm and 280 nm is used to assess the purity of DNA and RNA. A ratio of ~1.8 is generally accepted as “pure” for DNA; a ratio of ~2.0 is generally accepted as “pure” for RNA.

This ratio is used as a secondary measure of nucleic acid purity. The 260/230 values for “pure” nucleic acid are often higher than the respective 260/280 values. Expected 260/230 values are commonly in the range of 2.0-2.2. If the ratio is appreciably lower than expected, it may indicate the presence of contaminants which absorb at 230 nm. EDTA, carbohydrates and phenol all have absorbance near 230 nm.

We are trying to extraction 10/30/2019 instead of 10/2/2019 because in the 20210210 extractions, there was fair quality RNA that we might be able to work with.

TagSeq and RNASeq

We sequenced the RNA with TagSeq but this failed so we want to ship the RNA to Genewiz for RNASeq. We don’t have enough RNA (1.2 ug needed) from 10/40 of the fragments to send. I re-extracted those 10 fragments and will send that RNA.
