Frozen liver (~100 mg) was homogenized in 1 mL of TriZOL with chrome-steel beads using a Mixer Mill 300 (Life Sciences, Carlsbad, CA) for 4 minutes. Following, total RNA was extracted per the manufacturer's instructions with an additional 5:1 phenol:chloroform extraction step (Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO). RNA purity (260/280 ratio) and concentration (ng/µL) were assessed with a NanoDrop 1000 spectrophotometer. RNA quality was determined using an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. All RNA samples had RNA integrity numbers (RINs) ≥7. Library preparation was performed using a Ultra2 NEB RNA kit.
