Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
GST and GST-RAP fusion protein were expressed in bacteria and then purified. Briefly, recombined plasmid was expressed in E. coli Transetta (DE3) cells. At OD600 = 0.5, protein expression was induced with 1 mM IPTG (Solarbio) for 5 h at 25°C. Bacteria were lysed and sonicated in lysis buffer containing 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 300 mM NaCl, 0.5% Triton X-100, PMSF, DTT, lysozyme, and protease inhibitor cocktail (Sigma-Aldrich) at 4°C. After centrifugation at 12,000 g for 15 min at 4°C, the supernatant was used for the protein purification with GST resin (TransGen Biotech) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Elution of recombinant protein was performed under mild, non-denaturing condition using reduced glutathione. Then, the fractions were collected and analyzed with SDS-PAGE followed by Coomassie brilliant blue staining.
Breast cancer cells were treated with 200 nM GST-RAP fusion protein for 72 h followed by immunofluorescent staining. Briefly, cells grown on slides were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde. After blocking, slides were stained with anti-GST antibody (Proteintech, 10000-0-AP). Slides were then incubated with Alexa-488 Goat anti-Rabbit IgG (Invitrogen, A11008). Nuclei were stained with DAPI (Thermo Fisher Scientific).

Mouse embryos were collected in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and directly immersed in 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) in PBS (pH 7.4) at 4°C overnight. Following fixation, the samples were washed with PBS and stored in PBS at 4°C for further analyses. Back skins and hearts were dissected from fixed embryos and then stained by wholemount immunofluorescence staining as previously described (Yamazaki et al., 2017 (link)). The following primary antibodies were used in this study: polyclonal antibodies against NMHC 2A (1:1,000, Biolegend), NMHC2B (1:3,000, Biolegend), p-paxillin (1:1,000; BD Transduction Laboratories); monoclonal antibodies against PECAM1 (CD31, 1:200, BD Pharmingen), GFP (1:200, ab183734, Abcam). Fluorescence secondary antibodies used were Alexa 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG or Alexa 594 goat anti-mouse IgG (1:250, Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). Confocal microscopy was carried out either on a Leica TCS SP5 or on a Zeiss LSM 880. In all cases, when possible, comparison was made among littermates. For each genotype we analyzed at least three to five mice. We found no abnormalities in NM2A and NM2B single heterozygous mice or NM2A/2B double heterozygous mice compared with the littermates that expressed no Cre. Littermates containing no cre recombinase were used as controls for conditional ablated mice.

Embryos were fixed overnight at 4°C in 4% PFA. Immunostaining of eyes was performed following standard procedures with minor modifications. For sections, samples were embedded in gelatin, cryo-sectioned at 10–12 μm, then the gelatin was melted in 42°C PBS. Wholemount anterior eye tissue or sections were washed in PBT then blocked in PBT containing 0.1% BSA and 5% heat-inactivated sheep serum. Samples were incubated overnight at 4°C in antibody solution containing rabbit anti-GFP (IgG, Invitrogen) at 1:500 or rat anti-endomucin (IgG2a, eBioscience) diluted 1:500 in blocking solution.

The sections were then washed and incubated with the following Alexa-conjugated secondary antibodies (Invitrogen): Alexa 488-goat anti-rabbit IgG (4 µg/mL) and Alexa 555-goat anti-rat IgG (4 µg/mL) at room temperature for 1 h. DNA was stained with 1 µg/mL TOPRO-3 (Invitrogen). Confocal images were acquired using a Leica TCS SP5 II microscope (Leica, Wetzlar, Germany). The percentages of CitH3-positive and Ly6G/C-positive areas in each field were calculated in 10 randomly selected non-overlapping fields from respective lung and kidney sections at ×400 magnification. The percentages of positive areas were averaged in respective organs and individual animals. The imaging analysis was conducted in a blinded manner using MCID software (MCIC, Linton, Cambridge, UK).

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.
