===Discussion=== | |||
* The most intense bands are from PfuTurbo Cx and Stoffel. Although the results from HemoKlentaq looks good, but required more PCR cycles. KlenTherm also worked, I might have messed up while adding SLN to the 100 ng Klentherm and both the Truncated Taq reactions. But those were not the best performing polymerases in all the tests so far. Stoffel have the least background as well, which might be a good indication that it would result in better mapping rates. | |||
* Although PfuTurbo have very good amplification, I am concerned about the higher background with PfuTurboCx in between 200-400 bp. | |||

Capture PCR[edit]
- 4 uL of capture was used to amplify. Two step PCR with 8 cycles first step, and 10 cycles second step = 18 cycles of PCR total for all samples.
- TBE Gel:
File:HOTSPOTS captureA test.jpg File:HOTSPOTS captureA test repeat.job Gel might be slightly shifted or 471 bp calculation is wrong? The expected band seems to be greater than 500bp. The best annealing temperature appears to be 56.4 degC. This temperature should apply to all the subsets since the probes were randomly assigned to subsets.
- Will try capture subset B, C, D, E, and F at 56.4 degC. Also, I will amplify 19 or 20 cycles to hopefully increase yield of capture amplicons.

Capture PCR[edit]
- TBE Gel for capture at 56.4 (sample conditions), amplified 4 uL for 20 cycles.
File:HOTSPOTS captureA E newTemp.jpg
- It is still unclear if the expected product was formed. There is a band slightly above 400 bp and another band slightly above 500bp.
- B,E appears to perform the best (highest concentration of probes)
- qPCR plot
File:HOTSPOTS capturePCR A-E.bmp
- Repeat PCR on A,C,D,and F for 21 cycles, and re-do gel with 8 ul loaded this time. I can now see the band at 471 (below 500bp and above 400bp). However, the capture is still inefficient. There are several ways to improve it, first, I can increase the amount of samples because here I've only used 150 ng while Noi usually use 200 ng. I can try with 300 ng. Also, F capture did not work because I either didn't amplify enough or need to use more probes. It appears that the quality of the individual subsets do vary substantially, but I'm not sure if this variation would be consistent across multiple captures. Also, even though annealing temperature 56.4 degC worked here, I wonder if there is a difference between 56, 56.4, and 56.8, so I might try to repeat using subset A at those temperatures.
File:HOTSPOTS capture56.4PCR repeat
Test capture 56-57°C, 300 ng template, subset C only[edit]
- Noi performed bisulfite conversion for GM12878, concentration by Qubit is 31.1ng/uL.
- I used subset C here, which had the poorest efficiency from capture at 56.4 degC. I repeat the capture here for C because I did not expect subset C to perform worse than A,B,D, and E because the probes were randomly assigned to subsets. At least if I can find the proper annealing temperature for C, then it should also work fine for A,B,D, and E.

Capture PCR[edit]
- Amplified 4 uL for 21 (8 + 13) cycles as test PCR.
- qPCR plot
File:HOTSPOTS 56.1to56.9capture.bmp
- gel image: loaded 10 uL in first 3 lanes, and 5 uL in last 3 lanes
- I always get multiple bands. The top & clearest band is between 500-600bp. The expected band should be 471 bp, so that should be within the smear in between 400 and 500 bp.
- Since I did not run this gel for long enough, I could not see a clear separation for the 471 bp band.
- Capture at 56.1 degC produce the topmost band, whereas before with 55 degC, I was not able to see bands larger than 400bp. 56.4 degC appears to be the best annealing temperature.
File:HOTSPOTS 56.1to56.9capture PCR.jpg
- I might split capture product in two, each half will be amplified with a different barcode & perform gel cut for (1) the topmost band between 500-600bp, (2) the middle band between 400-500bp. The two libraries can be spiked in with Noi's MONOD samples for sequencing. Since capture with 56.4 and 56.9 degC are similar, I will pool them together to increase the amount of product.
- Pool 56.4 and 56.9 degC reactions together and split to perform PCR (22 cycles) with Index Primers 28 and 29.

Low input qPCR, 20 cycles[edit]
- Capture with 50 and 100 ng of template seem to yield the correct band. I might need to amplify for more cycles to increase the band intensity.

Test 5 different polymerases for capture[edit]
- Due to the high background from all my previous captures, I need to further optimize my captures. Also, it's important to have a very low failure rate for the capture in order to save precious Tet1-treated DNA.
- For this test, I will continue to use the Ampligase buffer. If the polymerases do not work well in Ampligase buffer, I will switch to a different buffer next.
- If using a different PCR buffer, I need to add NAD for Ampligase.
- Also only subset E is used in this capture at 200:1 ratio.

"S"LN set up[edit]
- For a final volume of 2.5 uL to each tube: 0.1 uL of 5 U/uL Ampligase (final = 0.5 U/uL), 0.25 uL of 1 mM dNTPs, 0.25 uL of 10X Ampligase Buffer. I added 0.60 uL of LN mix to each first.
- Added LN mix at 20 hour 56.4C incubation.
- For PfuTurboCX Hotstart, I aliquoted 1.5 uL that was then incubated at 95C for 3 minutes. Then transferred 1.2 uL to the capture reaction, (tube - PT).
- I will use 3 U of each polymerases:
Polymerase | Concentration (U/ul) | 3 U Vol (uL) | Water (uL) |
Stoffel | 10 | 0.3 | 1.6 |
HemoKlentaq | 5 | 0.6 | 1.3 |

PfuTurboCX | 2.5 | 1.2 | 0.7 |
Truncated Taq | 5 | 0.6 | 1.3 |
No-Polymerase | 0 | 0 | 1.9 |
- After adding polymerases, I added water last.
- After 20 hours, denature DNA at 95C for 3 minutes. The polymerases and Ampligase do not get heat inactivated easily.
- Add 1 uL of Exo I and 1 uL of ExoIII. Incubate at 37C for 2 hours.
- After ExoI/III, I performed amplification with Phusion Flash and saw a big smear in all my lanes. I believe this is due to the ExoI/III reaction, so I repeated ExoI&III digestion with new tubes of enzymes & repeated amplification.

Discussion[edit]
- All 5 polymerases worked in Ampligase buffer but they vary significantly. I plan to repeat the experiment using duplicates (but vary input: 100ng and 200ng) to confirm that these differences are real.
- I plan to move capture reaction onto ice when adding ExoI/III. I believe that when the reaction cools to 37C on the thermocycler, there may be an opportunity for Ampligase to ligase unused probes together. After discussing with others in the lab, we wonder if Ampligase may still have activity after incubation for long periods at ~55C, if it does, then adding ExoI/III on ice may be crucial to reducing background levels.
- I will continue performing capture PCR with Phusion Flash as this mix seems to reduce the background signals between 200-400bp.
- Since the concentration of HemoKlentaq is not known, we usually assume it to be 10U/uL and use 5 U (0.5 uL). For this experiment, I assumed the concentration to be 5 U/uL, and used 3 U (0.6 uL). The amount of HemoKlentag that I used is very close to the usual amount.

- Use 3 U of each polymerases just like in previous run. I don't want to use too much as some of these polymerase samples have very limited amount & they are expensive.

Discussion[edit]
- The most intense bands are from PfuTurbo Cx and Stoffel. Although the results from HemoKlentaq looks good, but required more PCR cycles. KlenTherm also worked, I might have messed up while adding SLN to the 100 ng Klentherm and both the Truncated Taq reactions. But those were not the best performing polymerases in all the tests so far. Stoffel have the least background as well, which might be a good indication that it would result in better mapping rates.
- Although PfuTurbo have very good amplification, I am concerned about the higher background with PfuTurboCx in between 200-400 bp.
Test different dNTPs and Phusion U for capture[edit]
- I want to be able to capture using less input DNA
- Testing 63 ng of input, with more polymerase and adjusting the dNTP concentrations.
- Prepare oligo mix: 200:1 ratio for 360 ng.
- Capture mixture:
Oligo mix: 52.03 uL 10x Ampligase buffer: 8 uL ------------------------- Total: 60.03 uL
- Aliquot: 52.49 uL for samples + 4.47 uL gDNA (315 ng of biscvt GM12878) + 13.04 uL water = 70 uL master mix.
- Aliquot: 7.54 uL (1/8) for NTC + 2.46 uL water = 10 uL NTC reaction.
- Split the 70 uL master mix into 5 tubes (14 uL, ~63 ng in each).
- Calculate dNTP required:
63 ng/ 3 pg = 21x10^3 copies 460,000 probes x 21E10^3 x 300 nt = 4.81 pmoles dNTPs x 10 = 48.1 pmoles dNTPs
- Will be adding 2 uL of PLN mixture:
25 uM dNTPs ( to add a total 50 pmoles to each reaction) 0.35 U/uL ligase ( to add 1U/20 uL ) 1.75 U/uL polymerase ( to add 5U/20 uL )
- Conditions for 5 reactions:
#1 - HK + PU, 25 uM dNTPs #2 - HK + PU, 100 uM dNTPs #3 - HK, 25 uM dNTPs #4 - PU, 25 uM dNTPs #5 - HK, 100 uM dNTPs
