The enzymatic activity of recombinant
UGMs was tested by monitoring the formation of UDP-Galp from UDP-Galf by HPLC. The assay was performed
in 0.1 mL of 25 mM HEPES, 125 mM NaCl, 20 mM dithionite, at pH 7.5,
at various concentrations of UDP-Galf. The reaction
was initiated by addition of enzyme at 50 nM for wild-type AfUGM,
1–3 μM for AfUGM mutants, 100 nM for wild-type TcUGM,
0.5–3 μM for TcUGM mutants, 15 nM for wild-type MtUGM,
and 500 nM for the MtUGMH68A. The reaction was incubated at 37 °C
until ∼30% conversion of UDP-Galf to UDP-Galp was achieved. The reaction was terminated by heat denaturation
at 95 °C for 5 min, in a DNA engine thermocycler (BioRad, Hercules,
CA). After centrifugation, the resulting mixture was injected onto
a PA-100 (Dionex) HPLC column. The sample was eluted isocratically
with 75 mM KH2PO4, pH 4.5, at 0.80 mL/min. Absorbance
at 262 nm was monitored to identify fractions containing substrate
and product. Under these conditions, UDP-Galp eluted
at 27.35 min and UDP-Galf at 34.19 min. The extent
of conversion was determined by comparing the integration of the substrate
and product peaks. The initial velocity data was fit to the Michaelis–Menten
equation to obtain the kcat and KM values.

Enzymatic Synthesis and Purification of 2-5A

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
2–5A (p3(A2′p)nA, where n = 1 to ≥3) was enzymatically synthesized from ATP using hexahistidine-tagged and purified recombinant porcine 42-kDa 2-5A synthetase (OAS1). Individual 2-5A oligomers were purified (>95% purity) using a Dionex PA100 (22 mm × 250 mm) semi-preparative column interfaced with a Beckman system gold HPLC system under the control of 32-Karat workstation [62 (link)]. The 5’-triphosphorylated triadenylate, p3A2’p5’A2’p5’A, was used for RNase L activation. Biotinlyation of 2-5A was performed using periodate chemistry as described earlier [30 (link), 44 (link)].

HPLC Analysis of Monosaccharide Decomposition

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Monosaccharides (D-xylose, D-glucose, and D-fructose) were determined using a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system Dionex 5,000 with acarbo Pac PA-100 (4 × 250 mm) anion exchange column and pulsed amperometric detection. Four different eluents were used: (A) 100 mM NaOH, (B) 100 mM NaOH + 600 mM NaCl, (C) 500 mM NaCl, and (D) ultra-deionized water. The decomposition products were analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography coupled with UV detection at 210 nm for organic acids and 284 nm for furanic compounds. 5 mM sulfuric acid was used as the elution solvent with a flow rate of 0.6 mL/min on a Aminex HPX-87H column (300 × 7.8 mm) at 45°C (Istasse et al., 2018 (link)).
The yield of all the compounds were defined by calculating the molar ratio between the generated product and the initial monosaccharides concentration (Figure S2).

Oligosaccharide Profiling by HPAEC-PAD and ESI-MS

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The OGs produced by overnight pectin-treated mutants were qualitatively characterized by the High-Performance Anion Exchange Chromatography-Pulsed Amperometric Detector (HPAEC-PAD) method using an analytical PA100 column (4 × 250 mm) connected to an analytical Dionex ICS-3000 ion chromatography system. Proteins must be removed by filtration through a 0.22 µm hydrophilic membrane before HPAEC-PAD analysis. The samples were eluted at a flow rate of 0.3 mL/min using the following protocol: 0-10 min, equilibrate the columns with 90% Eluent A (400 mM NaOH) and 10% Eluent B (400 mM NaOH, 1 M NaAc); 10-80 min, separate OGs with eluent A from 90 to 20% and eluent B from 10 to 80%; 80-90 min, clean the column with 100% eluent B.
Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry (ESI-MS) was used to further determine the composition and the degree of polymerization (DP) of the product. After centrifugation, a 1 µL supernatant was injected into an LTQ XL linear ion trap mass spectrometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). Oligosaccharides were detected in negative ion mode with the following settings: ion source voltage 4.5 kV; capillary temperature 275-300°C; tube lens, 250 V; sheath gas, 30 arbitrary units (AU); scan mass range 150-2000 m/e.g.

Separation was achieved using a DNAPac PA-100 analytical anion exchange column (25 cm x 4 mm, packed with 0.1 µM microbeads, Dionex, UK). DMB fluorescence was monitored with a fluorescence detector (RF-10A) as described above.

The distribution profiles of fructans were carried out in a liquid ion-exchange chromatograph DIONEX ICS-5000 (Thermoscientific, Waltham, MA, USA), using a Carbopac PA-100 (40 × 250 mm) column with a precolumn (40 × 25 mm) with a gradient of 100 mM NaOH and 600 mM CH3COONa for 90 minutes at 35 °C. Chicory inulin (SIGMA ALDRICH I-2255, St. Louis, MO, USA) was used as a standard. Additionally, standards of glucose, fructose, sucrose, kestose and nystose (SIGMA ALDRICH, St. Louis, MO, USA) were included to complete the distribution profile. Prior to their injection, samples were diluted in mili-Q water (2 mg·mL−1) and filtered through a 0.45 µm (Millipore®, Burlington, MA, USA) nylon membrane; the obtained results were expressed in nC versus time.

Expression of Epitope-Tagged DPR and DDX Proteins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
cDNAs encoding FLAG-tagged GA100, GR100, PR100, PA100, or PR5 were synthesized (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) and subcloned into pEF1/myc-His vector (Thermo Fisher Scientific) or pEGFP-C1 vector (Takara, Shiga, Japan) to express FLAG-tagged or EGFP-FLAG-tagged DPR proteins, respectively. A stop codon was inserted just after the DPR protein-encoding sequence. Human DDX17 and DDX18 cDNAs were amplified from human adult normal testis cDNA (BioChain Institute, Newark, CA, USA). Human DDX21 cDNA were amplified from HeLa cell cDNA. These DDX-encoding cDNAs were subcloned into pEF4/His vector (Thermo Fisher Scientific) in which HA tag-encoding sequence was inserted before Xpress tag-encoding sequence to express HA-tagged DDX17, DDX18, and DDX21. Human DDX5-HA-myc-His6-encoding plasmid was kindly provided by Dr. Didier Auboeuf (Université de Lyon)51 (link). Human Myc cDNA was amplified from human adult normal testis cDNA (BioChain Institute).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
