Methods for extracting ’omes from microbialites

Gómez-Acata, Elizabeth Selene, Centeno, Carla M., Falcón, Luisa I.·2019·Journal of Microbiological Methods

Abstract

Microbialites are organo-sedimentary structures formed by complex microbial communities that interact with abiotic factors to form carbonate rich fabrics. Extraction of DNA or total RNA from microbialites can be difficult because of the high carbonate mineral concentration and exopolymeric substances. The methods employed until now include substances such as cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, sodium dodecyl sulfate, xanthogenate, lysozyme and proteinase K, as well as mechanical disruption. Additionally, several commercial kits have been used to improve DNA and total RNA extraction. This minireview presents different methods applied for DNA and RNA extraction from microbialites and discusses their advantages and disadvantages. Moreover, extraction of all 'omes (DNA, RNA, Protein, Lipids, polar metabolites) using multiomic extraction methods (MPlex), as well as the state of art for extraction of viruses from microbialites, are also discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
