Real-time PCR was performed using SYBR Green intercalating dye and primers. The primers were designed using the IDT PrimerQuest Primer Design Tool and synthesized by IDT. Relative gene expression (target gene expression normalized to the expression of the endogenous control gene) was calculated using the comparative Ct method (2−ΔΔCt).

Changes in short RNA abundance were tested for their possible influence on mRNA levels of 10 relevant genes. RT-qPCR expression analysis was performed on the 10 genes that displayed clear changes in short RNA read numbers in both sense and antisense orientation and their neighboring genes. cDNA was amplified using PrimeTime qPCR Assays (primers and 5' hydrolysis probes). Expression values represented the ΔCt values compared to β-actin.

The expression of 9 genes [Actn2, Actn3, Casq1, Drd2, Lepr, Mc4r, Mstn, Papss2, and Glut4 (a.k.a. Slc2a4)] with putative roles in the regulation of voluntary physical activity was evaluated via RT-qPCR of skeletal muscle and brain RNA from inherently high- and low-active mice. cDNA was amplified using PrimeTime Predesigned qPCR Assays, which included ZEN Double-Quenched Probes, with all reactions run in duplicate. Expression was normalized to an endogenous control (18S ribosomal RNA (IDT assay: RN18S) using methods described by Pfaffl.
