A new approach for extracellular RNA recovery from Rhodovulum sulfidophilum
The development of RNA-based drugs is highly pursued due to the possibility of creating viable and effective therapies. However, their translation to clinical practice strongly depends on efficient technologies to produce substantial levels of these biomolecules, with high purity and high quality. RNAs are commonly produced by chemical or enzymatic methods, displaying these limitations. In this sense, recombinant production arises as a promising, cost-effective method, allowing large-scale production of RNA. Rhodovulum sulfidophilum (R. sulfidophilum), a marine purple bacterium, offers the advantage of RNA secretion into the extracellular medium, which contains low levels of RNases and other impurities. Therefore, RNA recovery can be simplified compared to standard extraction protocols involving cell lysis, resulting in a more clarified sample and an improved downstream process. In this work, R. sulfidophilum was transformed with a plasmid DNA encoding pre-miR-29b-1, which is known to be involved in the Alzheimer's disease pathway. After production, the pre-miR-29b-1 was recovered through different extraction methods to verify the most advantageous one. A protocol for extracellular RNA recovery was then established, revealing to be a simpler and less time-consuming method, reducing around 16 h in execution time and the quantity of reagents needed when compared to other established methods. The new strategy brings the additional advantage of eliminating the toxic organic compounds routinely used in intracellular RNA extractions. Overall, the optimized process described here, using isopropanol as the precipitation agent, offers a greener, safer, and faster alternative for recombinant RNA recovery and concentration, with an extracellular RNA recovery of 7 μg/mL and target pre-miRNA-29b-1 recovery of 0.7 μg/L of medium.
期刊介绍:
The journal''s title Analytical Biochemistry: Methods in the Biological Sciences declares its broad scope: methods for the basic biological sciences that include biochemistry, molecular genetics, cell biology, proteomics, immunology, bioinformatics and wherever the frontiers of research take the field.
The emphasis is on methods from the strictly analytical to the more preparative that would include novel approaches to protein purification as well as improvements in cell and organ culture. The actual techniques are equally inclusive ranging from aptamers to zymology.
The journal has been particularly active in:
-Analytical techniques for biological molecules-
Aptamer selection and utilization-
Biosensors-
Chromatography-
Cloning, sequencing and mutagenesis-
Electrochemical methods-
Electrophoresis-
Enzyme characterization methods-
Immunological approaches-
Mass spectrometry of proteins and nucleic acids-
Metabolomics-
Nano level techniques-
Optical spectroscopy in all its forms.
The journal is reluctant to include most drug and strictly clinical studies as there are more suitable publication platforms for these types of papers.
