Sample GSM1480632 Query DataSets for GSM1480632
Status Public on Feb 18, 2016
Title Metazome_Drosophila_timecourse_sample_0018
Sample type SRA
 
Source name single embryo 18
Organism Drosophila melanogaster
Characteristics time (minutes cellularization stage): 240
Growth protocol Drosophila melanogaster embryos were collected using the protocol published in (PMID:21357063). In short, agar plates with apple juice smeared with freshly prepared yeast were used to make young adult flies lay a lot of eggs. Cages consisting of such plates were set up with at least 20 flies and left for roughly one day for the flies to acclimatize to the cage. In order to make sure to use only newly laid eggs the apple juice plates were replaced with fresh ones twice in one hour interval in the morning to clear the embryos held by the mothers overnight as fresh food stimulates egg laying. The third apple juice plate contained embryos that were further processed for embryo collection. Drosophila embryos are covered with a non-transparent chorion which has to be removed prior to live imaging by dechorionation. Shortly after being laid embryos were washed off from plates into a plastic sieve using tap water and a fine brush to loosen the embryos. In the sieve embryos were submerged into 50% bleach solution for exactly two minutes. Embryos were washed off from bleach on the sieve with cold tap water by spraying with a plastic squirt. Embryos were finally rinses by dipping the plastic sieve three times into white plastic weighing baskets filled with fresh water and then left in the last basket until further handling. Using a needle pick 20 embryos were placed in a row on a strip of agar placed on a glass slide. n-Heptane glue was applied in a thin layer on a big glass cover slip. This cover slip was carefully put upside down on top of the embryos on the agar strip so that embryos adhere to the glue layer. Embryos were covered with PBS and kept in humid chambers in a 25°C incubator. Embryos on the slip were observed under light microscope and for each embryo time of cellularization was noted. Reaching respective time after cellularization embryos were carefully removed from slide using needle pick and flash frozen in an Eppendorf tube in liquid nitrogen.
Extracted molecule total RNA
Extraction protocol Total RNA was extracted from single embryos using trizol as described in (Levin et al. Developmental cell 2012) including minor adjustments. After the addition of trizol to the embryos the mixture was frozen in liquid nitrogen, thawed at 37 degrees and vortexed for 30 seconds. This procedure was repeated five times. Only then chloroform was added and the sample further processed. Dried total RNA pellet was dissolved in RNAse free water before introduction into subsequent amplification and sequencing library preparation steps.
The CEL-Seq protocol (Hashimshony, et al. Cell reports 2012) was used to amplify and sequence RNA from whole embryos. CEL-seq multiplexing barocdes were used.
