Sulfo-cyanine3 maleimide (Lumiprobe) was dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide and incubated with TRL-1 proteins for 1 h at room temperature (fluorophore-to-protein molar ratio was 1:100). Buffer containing 20 mM Hepes pH 7.5, 500 mM NaCl was added to quench the reaction. The fluorophores and other small molecules were removed from the reaction through a desalting column (Thermo Fisher, 89882).

Alexa Fluor 488 NHS ester (Thermo Fisher Scientific), Sulfo-Cyanine3 maleimide (Lumiprobe), and Alexa Fluor 647 NHS ester (Thermo Fisher Scientific) were dissolved in DMSO and incubated with the corresponding protein at room temperature for 1 h (fluorophore to protein molar ratio was 1:1). The reaction was quenched by 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, and 500 mM NaCl. The fluorophores and other small molecules were removed from the proteins by passing the reaction mixture through a desalting column (89882; Thermo Fisher Scientific) with buffer containing 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 500 mM NaCl. In imaging assays, fluorophore-labeled proteins were further diluted with the corresponding unlabeled proteins in the same buffer.

Fluorescent Labeling of DR5-B-iRGD Protein

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To obtain fluorescently labeled protein DR5-B-iRGD, first the DR5-B-iRGD amino acid sequence was genetically modified at the N-end by replacing the amino acid residue valine in the 114 position to cysteine by site-directed mutagenesis. The cysteine-modified proteins DR5-B and DR5-B-iRGD were obtained by the method earlier reported for DR5-B [45 (link)]. Further, the cysteine-modified proteins DR5-B and DR5-B-iRGD were labeled by maleimide chemistry coupling with the fluorescent dye sulfo-Cyanine 3 maleimide (Lumiprobe, Moscow, Russia) according to the manufacturer’s protocol.

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.
