Trypsin is a serine protease enzyme that is commonly used in cell biology and biochemistry laboratories. Its primary function is to facilitate the dissociation and disaggregation of adherent cells, allowing for the passive release of cells from a surface or substrate. Trypsin is widely utilized in various cell culture applications, such as subculturing and passaging of adherent cell lines.

Enzymatic degradation of specimens (n = 36) was conducted using either collagenase or trypsin. Collagenase D (0.1 mg/ml, Sigma-Aldrich Inc., St. Louis, MO, USA) was utilized for digestion of the collagen network, whereas trypsin (0.5 mg/ml, T4299, Sigma-Aldrich Inc., St. Louis, MO, USA) was used to deplete the proteoglycans from the extracellular matrix. 27, 28 Collagenases D explicitly targets and cleaves the collagen molecules in the triple helix region, whereas trypsin cuts the peptide bond on the C-terminal side of lysine and arginine amino acids (Sigma-Aldrich Inc).
Prior to enzymatic degradation, the specimens were subdivided into three groups: collagenase 24 h (C24, n = 12), collagenase 90 min (C90, n = 12), and trypsin 30 min (T30, n = 12). Specimens were incubated at 37 C and 5% CO 2 in PBS solution containing the respective enzymes with supplementary antibiotics (penicillin-streptomycin-amphotericin B, 100 units/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin, and 0.25 μg/ml amphotericin B, Sigma-Aldrich Inc., St. Louis, MO, USA). 29 For mild cartilage degradation, we applied a shorter incubation time of 30 min for trypsin (T30) and 90 min for collagenase (C90). A long incubation time of 24 h was also applied with collagenase (C24) to induce severe damage. After enzymatic treatment, specimens were rinsed in PBS before the Raman spectroscopic measurements.

Two enzymes were used for degradation of the samples in group 2. Collagenase D (Sigma Aldrich) was used for the degradation of the collagen network,35 (link) while trypsin (T4299, Sigma Aldrich) was used for proteoglycan digestion (with minor collateral effect on the collagen network).17 (link) The samples in group 2 were further divided into three subgroups according to the enzyme and duration of treatment as follows: collagenase 24 h (E1, n = 12), collagenase 90 min (E2, n = 12) and trypsin 30 min (E3, n = 12). The prewarmed samples were incubated at 37 °C and 5% CO2 in PBS solution containing the respective enzymes (0.1 mg/mL for Collagenase D, and 0.5 mg/mL for trypsin) and supplemented with antibiotics, including PenicillinStreptomycinAmphotericin B (100 U/mL Penicillin, 100 µg/mL Streptomycin and 0.25 µg/mL Amphotericin B, stabilized, Sigma-Aldrich) for the different times specified previously. The incubation times of 30 min for trypsin and 90 min for collagenase were applied to induce mild cartilage degradation that mimic early OA. In order to induce severe damage, long incubation time of 24 h in collagenase was applied.

Protein import assay was done using intact chloroplasts isolated from 10- to 13-day-old pea seedlings and [35S]-labeled proteins as previously described (Inoue and Potter, 2004 (link); Inoue et al., 2006 (link)). The radiolabeled proteins were synthesized using TNT® coupled reticulocyte lysate system (Promega) and T7 (for Toc75-IV and Tic22), T3 (for OEP80tr), SP6 (for Toc75, and OEP80) RNA polymerases with [35S]Met (Perkin Elmer, Waltham, MA). Post-import fractionation of chloroplasts was done as described (Inoue et al., 2006 (link)). For post-import protease treatment, the chloroplasts containing the imported proteins were treated with thermolysin or trypsin (both are from Sigma-Aldrich Corp, St. Louis, MO) at a 1:1 mass ratio with the amount of chlorophylls incubated in the import reaction in import buffer with (for thermolysin) or without (for trypsin) 1 mM CaCl2, respectively, for 30 min in the dark on ice (for thermolysin) or at room temperature (for trypsin). The protease reactions were quenched by adding EDTA to the final concentration of 5 mM (for thermolysin) or trypsin inhibitor at a 10:1 mass ratio of the inhibitor to the protease (for trypsin) in import buffer. For the energy-dependency assay, the reaction was done using translation products pre-treated with 50 U/mL apyrase (Sigma-Aldrich) at room temperature for 15 min.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Protein samples were hydrolyzed using trypsin (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA, T8658), an enzyme present in the gastrointestinal tract of mammals, to digest the protein. Extracted protein samples were mixed with 20% TCA and allowed to precipitate for 2 h at 4 °C. The mixture was then centrifuged at 4500 rpm for 5 min, and the supernatant was discarded. The precipitate was washed 2 times with pre-chilled acetone. The pellets were then dried and triethylammonium bicarbonate (TEAB) (Sigma-Aldrich, 241059) was added to obtain a final concentration of 200 mM. trypsin was added at a ratio of 1:50 (protease:protein m/m) and allowed to hydrolyze overnight. After digestion with trypsin, dithiothreitol (DTT) (Sigma-Aldrich, 43815) was added to obtain a final concentration of 5 mM and then reduced for 30 min at 56 °C. Finally, iodoacetamide was added to obtain a final concentration of 11 mM and incubated for 15 min at room temperature after covering it with silver paper (to avoid light).
