Library Construction Protocol

1. Reagent Preparation
   This protocol takes approximately 5.5 h to complete. Ideally, master mixes for the various steps in the process should be prepared as required.
   
   For maximum stability and shelf-life, the enzymes and reaction buffers are supplied separately in the KAPA mRNA HyperPrep Kit.
   
   For a streamlined protocol, a reagent master mix with a minimum of 10% excess is prepared for each of these enzymatic steps, as outlined in Tables 2-5. Volumes of additional reagents required for the KAPA mRNA HyperPrep Kit protocol are listed in Table 6.
   
   Always ensure that KAPA Pure Beads and PEG/NaCl Solution are fully equilibrated to room temperature before use.

2. mRNA Capture
   This protocol requires 50 ng-1 µg of intact total RNA, in 50 µL of RNase-free water. Degraded or fragmented total RNA will result in significant 3'-bias.
   
   This protocol has been optimized to isolate mature mRNA from total RNA through two subsequent capture steps using mRNA Capture Beads. Other RNA molecules with homopolymeric adenosine regions may also be isolated.
   
   RNA samples should only be kept on ice where specified in this protocol, since low temperatures may promote non-specific capture, resulting in increased rRNA levels in the captured mRNA.
   
   Before starting, equilibrate mRNA Capture Beads, mRNA Bead Binding Buffer, mRNA Bead Wash Buffer and Fragment, Prime and Elute Buffer (2X) to room temperature.
   
   Before use, beads must be washed with mRNA Bead Binding Buffer (Steps 2.1-2.5).
   
   
   2.1

   Resuspend the mRNA Capture Beads thoroughly by pipetting up and down gently, or by using a vortex mixer on a low to medium speed setting to prevent foaming. High-speed vortexing or shaking should be avoided to prevent foaming. Refer to Important Parameters: mRNA Capture Beads for more information.
   2.2

   For each library to be prepared, transfer 52.5 µL (50 µL + 5% excess) of the resuspended mRNA Capture Beads into an appropriate tube. When preparing multiple libraries, beads for up to 24 libraries (1,260 µL) may be washed in a single tube. When preparing more than 24 libraries, wash beads in multiple batches. Please refer to Important Parameters: mRNA Capture Beads for additional recommendations regarding bulk bead washing.
