The BtKY72 S construct was synthesized by GenScript and cloned into an HDM plasmid with a C-terminal 3X FLAG tag. The BtKY72 mutant S constructs T498W (BtKY72 S residue 487) and K493Y/T498W (BtKY72 S residue 482/487) were subcloned by GenScript from the BtKY72 S construct. Pseudotyped VSV particles were prepared using HEK293T (293T) (ATCC CRL-11268) cells seeded into 10-cm dishes. 293T cells were transfected using Lipofectamine 2000 (Life Technologies) with a S encoding-plasmid in Opti-MEM transfection medium and incubated for 5 hr at 37°C with 8% CO2 supplemented with DMEM containing 10% FBS. One day post-transfection, cells were infected with VSV (G*ΔGluciferase), and after 2 hr, infected cells were washed 5x with DMEM before adding medium supplemented with anti-VSV G antibody (I1-mouse hybridoma supernatant diluted 1:40, from ATCC CRL-2700). Pseudotyped particles were harvested 18-24 hr post-inoculation, clarified from cellular debris by centrifugation at 3000 g for 10 min, concentrated 100x using a 100 MWCO membrane for 10 min at 3000 rpm, and frozen at -80°C. Mock pseudotyped VSV pseudovirus was generated as above but in the absence of S.

U87, A172, and HEK293T (293T) cells were purchased from American Type Culture Collection. HeLa cells stably expressing empty vector (EV), 6His-SUMO 1 and 6His-SUMO 2, were obtained from Dr. RT Hay and have been described previously [37 (link)]. Cells were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (ThermoFisher Scientific). GBM34 and GBM44 GSCs obtained from Dr. Mariano Viapiano (Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Boston, MA) were maintained as neurospheres as described [27 ]. All cell lines were screened for mycoplasma using the ATCC Universal Mycoplasma Detection Kit (catalogue # 30- 121 1012K) every 4 months. Early passage primary MEFs from wild-type, MyD88−/−, Rig-I−/−, Mda5−/−, Lgp2−/−, MAVS−/−, Tmem173−/−, and Trif−/− mice were cultured as previously described [51 (link), 52 (link)]. All cell lines were authenticated by routine morphological and growth analysis and by western blotting. TMZ was obtained from Sigma-Aldrich. DNA transfection was performed using TransIT LT1 (Mirus) and siRNA transfection with Oligofectamine (Invitrogen). Cycloheximide (CHX) and MG132 were from Cayman Chemical. The following siRNAs were used: siGENOME non-targeting siRNA#3 (Dharmacon), siGENOME Smartpool si-LGP2 (Dharmacon), si-TLR3 (sc-36685, Santa Cruz), and si-PKR (sc-36263, Santa Cruz).

HEK293T (293T) and Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, #CRL-11268 for 293T, female; #PTA-6500 for MDCK, female) and cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) in 37°C, 5% CO2 atmosphere. The H7N9 virus used in the animal study was A/Shanghai/4664T/2013 was obtained from Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center and stored at -80°C in a BSL-3 laboratory (Fudan University). A/Shanghai/4664T/2013 has very similar sequence to that of A/Shanghai/2/2013 with only a single point mutation (Y282H). The H7N3 A/RT/NJ65/85 and H7N9 A/Shanghai/2/2013 viruses used in the neutralization assay were vaccine strain viruses generated by reverse genetics obtained from CDC. The H7N9 virus titer was expressed as 50% tissue culture infection dose (TCID50). In brief, the virus was serially diluted 10-fold. The diluted virus samples were then added to MDCK cells in 96-well plates, which were incubated at 37°C for 3 days. The TCID50 values were measured by determining CPE and were calculated by the Reed-Muench method. The H7N4 virus used in this study was A/EM/Korea/W266/2007, which was generously provided by Dr. Young-Ki Choi at Chungbuk National University, Republic of Korea.

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.
