Performed according to RNeasy Plus Mini Kit (QIAGEN, Cat#74134) Total RNA was used as input material for the RNA sample preparations. Briefly, mRNA was purified from total RNA by using poly-T oligo-attached magnetic beads. Fragmentation was carried out using divalent cations under elevated temperature in First Strand Synthesis Reaction Buffer(5X). First strand cDNA was synthesized using random hexamer primer and M-MuLV Reverse Transcriptase, then use RNaseH to degrade the RNA. Second strand cDNA synthesis was subsequently performed using DNA Polymerase I and dNTP. Remaining overhangs were converted into blunt ends via exonuclease/polymerase activities. After adenylation of 3' ends of DNA fragments, Adaptor with hairpin loop structure were ligated to prepare for hybridization. In order to select cDNA fragments of preferentially 370~420 bp in length, the library fragments were purified with AMPure XP system (Beckman Coulter, Beverly, USA). Then PCR amplification, the PCR product was purified by AMPure XP beads, and the library was finally obtained.  In order to ensure the quality of the library, the library needs to be tested. After the construction of the library, the library was initially quantified by Qubit2.0 Fluorometer, then diluted to 1.5ng/ul, and the insert size of the library is detected by Agilent 2100 bioanalyzer. After insert size meets the expectation, qRT-PCR is used to accurately quantify the effective concentration of the library (the effective concentration of the library is higher than that of 2nM) to ensure the quality of the library.
