Egfp lc3

Manufactured by Genechem
Sourced in China

EGFP-LC3 is a fluorescent protein fusion construct consisting of enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) linked to the microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3). LC3 is a widely used marker for autophagosomes, making EGFP-LC3 a useful tool for monitoring autophagy in live cells.

Stable Cell Line Generation for BNIP3 Knockdown

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
mRFP-LC3 (21075), tfLC3 (21074), and LAMP1-mGFP(34831) were obtained from Addgene (Cambridge, MA, USA). EGFP-LC3, BNIP3, and SNAP29 plasmids were constructed by Gene Chem Co. Ltd (Shanghai, China). Cells were transfected with plasmids using Lipofectamine 3000 Transfection Reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. After 24 h incubation, the transfection mixture was removed and replaced with fresh complete medium. The target sequence of BNIP3 shRNA (5′-ACTGCACTTCAGCAATAAT-3′) was purchased Gene Chem Co. Ltd. To establish BNIP3 knockdown stable cell lines, 293FT cells were co-transfected with lentiviral packaging vectors pLP1, pLP2, and pLP/VSVG (Invitrogen, K4975) along with shBNIP3 or shCon plasmid using Lipofectamine 3000 (Invitrogen, L3000015) according to the manufacturer’s protocols. Forty-eight hours later, supernatant containing the lentivirus was harvested and infected with MCF-7 cells. Cells were subsequently selected with 4 μg/mL puromycin (Sigma, P9620) to establish stable cell lines.

Establishing Stable Cell Lines for mRFP-LC3 and LAMP1-mGFP

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
mRFP-LC3 (21075) and LAMP1-mGFP (34831) were obtained from Addgene. EGFP-LC3 and ATG7-siRNA plasmids were constructed by GeneChem Co. LTD (Shanghai, China). Plasmids were transfected into MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells using Lipofectamine 3000 transfection reagent (Invitrogen, L3000). The transfection mixture was removed and replaced with fresh complete medium after 24 h incubation. The sequences of UBC9 shRNA were 5′-TTGGCAGTAAATCGTGTAGGCC-3′ (sh-UBC9–1#) and 5′-ATTTAGAAGTTCCTGTATTCCT-3′ (sh-UBC9–3#).
293FT cells were transfected with pLP1, pLP2, pLP/VSVG (Invitrogen, K4975) and sh-UBC9 or sh-Con plasmid. Supernatants containing the lentivirus were harvested after 48 h incubation and used to infect target cells. MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells were selected with puromycin (4–8 μg/mL) (Sigma, P9620) to establish stable cell lines.

Transfection and FASN-siRNA Knockdown

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Transfection was performed using Lipofectamine 3000 transfection reagent following the manufacturer's protocol. The plasmids EGFP-LC3 and RFP-MITO were constructed by GeneChem Co. (Shanghai, China). After 24-48 h of incubation, the transfection solution was replaced with a fresh complete culture medium. For RNA interference, the FASN-siRNA plasmid was constructed by Suzhou GenePharma Co., Ltd. (Suzhou, China), and FASN-siRNA was introduced into A2780 and OV90 cells according to the manufacturer's specifications.

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.
