DARTFISH on BA8 Sections with PA gel

3 months after they were initially mixed. The solution should be clear, colorless, with no precipitate and the pH should not be below 6.5."

Protocol

Day 1

  1. Prepare plastic culture dish with 12x17mm hole, tweezers, large plastic dish, and 50C hot plate
    • EtOH and UV sterilize
  2. Used 4% PFA from 1/20/2016
  3. Take out second worst BA8 sections (second furthest front) from -80C and dry on 50C hot plate for 3min
  4. Submerge coverslip in 5ml 4% PFA in 6 well culture plate for 15min at 37C
  5. Wash twice with cold 1X SSPE by submerging
  6. Aspirate any liquid and attach glass to bottom of culture dish with double-sided adhesive
  7. Add 100ul gel casting mix filtered and degassed
  8. Cover with plastic coverslips cut and glued together such that it leaves ~0.3mm space for gel height
  9. Seal in plastic bag and vacuum out air before filling with argon
  10. Let sit at RT for 30min
  11. Aspirate non-polymerized gel and wash once with cold 1X SSPE
    • Mostly did not polymerize
    • Only a ~1cm diameter circle of gel polymerized in center
    • I will continue with FISSEQ protocol to see whether can generate as many rolonies in gel area as non-gel area
  12. Add 0.25% TX-100 in 2XSSPE and incubate 10min at RT
  13. Wash with cold nf-H2O three times and check for degradation
  14. Add 0.01% Pepsin in 0.1N HCl and incubate for 90sec at 37C
    • 2ul 1%Pepsin + 10ul 2N HCl + 188ul H2O
  15. Wash with nf-1X PBS three times and check for degradation
  16. Prepare Reverse Transcription Mix on ice and add

100uM N9 5
RNase Inhibitor 2
M-MuLV RTase 10
Total 200
  1. Incubate 10min at 4C and then ~18hr at 37C

Day 2

  • Gel must have expanded overnight and created a "tent" in the center of glass where gel is pushed up
  1. Wash with 1X PBS once
  2. Add 200ul cold BS(PEG)9 (4ul stock BS(PEG)9 + 196ul 1X PBS) and incubate 1hr at RT
  3. Wash with 1X PBS twice
  4. Add 1M Tris pH 8.0 and incubate 30min at RT
  5. Wash with 1X PBS twice
  6. RNA Removal
    • Add 200ul RNase Mix (20ul RNase H 10X Buffer + 2ul Riboshredder + 10ul RNase H + 168ul H2O) and incubate 1hr at 37C
  7. Wash with nf-H2O twice
  8. Prepare Ampligase mix on ice
    • Preheat H2O + Padlock probes + suppv2 Oligos to 85C and then snap cool before adding Ampligase buffer and enzyme
  • B13: 305nM
    • This batch of padlock probes was PCR'd an extra 3 cycles during production PCR

  1. Add mix to sample and incubate for 30min at 37C
  2. Move sample to 60C and oven slowly decreases to 55C and held for ~20hr

Day 4

  1. Wash with 1X PBS once
  2. Add 1uM FISSEQ_ppRCA (1ul 200uM FISSEQ_ppRCA + 199ul 2X SSC + 30% formamide) and incubate 1hr at 55C
    • Preheated to 70C before adding
  3. Wash with 2X SSC once, 1X SSC once, and 1X PBS once
  4. Add RCA mix and incubate 18hr at 30C
