Anti YTHDF1 and YTHDF2 RIP-seq to identify target mRNAs in mouse cortex and retina

ABSTRACT: To identify the target mRNAs of the m6A reader proteins YTHDF1 and YTHDF2, we carried out anti-YTHDF1 and anti-YTHDF2 RNA Immunoprecipitation (RIP) followed by RNA-sequencing. Using EZ-Magna RIP™ RNA-Binding Protein Immunoprecipitation Kit (Millipore), RNA from E12.5 wild-type mouse cortices and P0 wild-type mouse retinas was pulled down by rabbit polyclonal anti-YTHDF1 (proteintech) and rabbit polyclonal anti-YTHDF2 (proteintech), and then sequenced on Illumina HiSeq3000 platform. The filtered reads were mapped to the mouse reference genome (GRCm38) using STAR v2.5 with default parameters. The resulting bam files were fed to the HTSeq tool to count the number of RNA-seq reads, which was further normalized to calculate FPKM. To determine which gene is enriched, we computed the FPKM from RIP elute to input, and any fold change greater than 2 was considered enriched. From the embryonic cortex, we identified 986 and 1860 mRNAs by anti-YTHDF1 and anti-YTHDF2 RIP-seq, respectively. Anti-YTHDF1 and anti-YTHDF2 RIP-seq in mouse retina identified 2969 and 1638 mRNAs, respectively. This study provides the gene lists which show mRNAs binding with YTHDF1 and YTHDF2 in the mouse cortex and retina.
