RNA-seq of PcTF Transfected U2OS & SK-N-SH cell lines Main project page
Previous entry      Next entry

Summary

Today we'll be harvesting the U2OS cells from the first transfection attempt. Fluorescence microscopy of the cells indicates there is little or no PcTF-RFP expression in the line, but we'll be doing a run through with flow cytometry and RNA purification regardless, as practice for future attempts.

Goals

  • Harvest U2OS cells from 1st transfection attempt
  • Flow cytometry on cells to determine gene expression levels
  • RNA purification on cells to create cDNA library (see below, Results section)

Protocol

flow cytometry of mammalian cells for measuring fluorescent gene expression
RNA extraction / purification

Materials

  • PBS buffer
  • Trypsin / EDTA
  • Complete cell medium
  • FACS Buffer - 1% FBS in 1x PBS (stored at 4°C)
  • FACS tubes with strainer caps - 6 mL capacity (EMS 64750-25)
  • TRIzol / RNA purification miniprep & supplies
  • pipette tips, etc.

Notes

Overview of flow cytometry data:



Negative control does not have significantly different fluorescence values than the samples (data not shown).

Results/Conclusions

Since the control has the same fluorescence levels as the samples (and therefore the same gene expression levels of PcTF-mCherry), we will not be performing the RNA extraction / purification today. Instead we'll be repeating this experiment tomorrow on the second set of transfected cells.
