Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Bile stock solution (12.5%) was prepared by dissolving crude porcine bile extract (Sigma, B8631) in RPMI or YPD. Insoluble components were removed by centrifugation at 12000 ×g, the supernatant filter sterilized and stored at 4°C in the dark. Sodium taurodeoxycholate hydrate (Sigma, T0875), taurocholic acid sodium salt hydrate (Sigma, T4409), sodium glycocholate hydrate (Sigma, G7132), and unconjugated bile salts (UBS) (Sigma 48305, 50% cholic acid sodium salt and 50% deoxycholic acid sodium salt) were dissolved at 100 mg/ml in either YPD or RPMI, filtered and used as stock solutions.

Bile Acid Induction of tcpA Promoter

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PtcpA-sh-ble was grown as overnight culture, diluted 1:1000 in fresh LB, and grown for ~2 hours at 37°C. Each reaction was prepared in 40μl 0.5X pH 8.5 LB medium, with sodium taurocholate hydrate (TC, Sigma-Aldrich), sodium glycocholate hydrate (Sigma Aldrich), cholic acid (CA, Alfa Aesar), sodium taurodeoxycholate hydrate (Sigma-Aldrich), sodium glycodeoxycholate (Sigma Aldrich), deoxycholic acid (DCA, MB Biomedicals), tauro-β-muricholic acid (Steraloids Inc.), or β-muricholic acid (Steraloids Inc.) added to a final concentration of 125μM. 2μl of reporter strain subculture was then added, and samples incubated anaerobically at 37°C for 4hrs. 2μl of each reaction was then added to 200μl of 0.5X LB pH 8.5 +/−10μg/ml of zeocin (Sigma Aldrich), incubated for 30 minutes aerobically at 37°C with agitation, and then serially diluted and plated onto LB agar plates with streptomycin to determine survival rates. Induction represents percentage of PtcpA-sh-ble reporter cells surviving treatment with zeocin after incubation with indicated samples under anaerobic conditions, defined as (zeocin-treated sample survival/average of no-zeocin controls)*100. Where noted, survival rates were normalized to that induced by 125μM taurocholate.

80 U/mL trypsin from cow pancreas (T1426, Merck) was incubated with serial dilutions of SBTI in 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, along with 10 mM of the individual bile acids sodium glycocholate hydrate (G7132, Merck), sodium glycodeoxycholate (G9910, Merck), sodium taurocholate hydrate (86339, Merck) or sodium taurodeoxycholate hydrate (T0875, Merck) for 20 min at 25 °C. The reaction was initiated by the addition of Nα-Benzoyl-l-arginine-4-nitroanilide-hydrochloride (L-BAPA, B3133, Merck) dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to 32 µM. Reactions were incubated at 37 °C with shaking at 400 RPM (double orbital shaking) and trypsin activity was monitored by measuring A405 with a FLUOstar Omega plate-reader (BMG Labtech).

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.
