Streptavidin cy3

Manufactured by Cytiva
Sourced in United States

Streptavidin-Cy3 is a conjugate of the protein streptavidin and the fluorescent dye Cy3. Streptavidin has a high affinity for the small molecule biotin, allowing it to be used in various bioanalytical techniques that involve biotin-labeled molecules. The Cy3 dye provides a fluorescent signal that can be detected and measured.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For gene expression profiling in MDA-MB-231 cell lines, we used the Illumina HumanHT-12-v4-BeadChip (Illumina). Total RNA isolated from the cell lines with control siRNA or PIN1 siRNA or treated with DMSO or KPT-6566 for 48 h were reverse transcribed and amplified, according to standard protocols and in vitro transcription was then carried out to generate cRNA. cRNA was hybridized onto each array (three biological replicates for the KPT-6566 condition and two for PIN1 siRNA condition) and then labelled with Cy3-streptavidin (Amersham Biosciences). The array was then scanned using a BeadStation 500 system (Illumina). The probe intensities were calculated and normalized using GenomeStudio Data Analysis Software's Gene Expression Module (GSGX) Version 1.9 (Illumina). Further data processing was performed in the R computing environment version 3.2 (http://www.r-project.org/), with BioConductor packages (http://www.bioconductor.org/).

RNA samples were processed for gene and miRNA profiling on the Illumina platform at the Functional Genomics Facility of INT. For gene profiling analysis, 800 ng of total RNA was reverse transcribed, biotin-labeled, and amplified using Illumina RNA TotalPrep Amplification kit (Ambion, Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY) as per the manufacturer’s instructions. One μg of each cRNA amplified sample was added to Hyb E1 hybridization buffer containing 37.5% (w/w) formamide and hybridized to array HumanHT-12-v3 expression Bead Chip (Illumina, Inc., San Diego, CA) at 58°C for 18 h. Array chips were washed and stained using 1 μg/mL of Cy3-streptavidin (Amersham Biosciences). For miRNA profiling, miRNAs were amplified with the Illumina human_v2 MicroRNA expression profiling kit, based on the DASL (cDNA-mediated Annealing, Selection, Extension, and Ligation) assay according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, 400 ng/sample of total RNA was converted to cDNA. After annealing with miRNA-specific oligo pools, PCR amplification and fluorescent labeling, probes were hybridized on Illumina miRNA BeadChips, allowing analysis of 1146 sequences covering 97% of miRNAs present in the miRBase v12.0. After hybridization, fluorescent signals were detected by the Illumina BeadArrayTM reader.

440 ng total RNA was used for in vitro transcription, overnight for 14h using biotin-11-dUTP for labeling of the cRNA product using the Illumina TotalPrep RNA amplification kit (Ambion). The cRNA yields were quantified with a spectrophotometer and the labeled cRNA (500 ng) was hybridized to HumanHT-12 V4 BeadChip™ arrays (Illumina) containing 47,231 transcripts (targeting approximate 31,000 annotated genes) at 55 °C overnight following staining with 1 μg/mL streptavidin-Cy3 (Amersham Biosciences) for visualization. Washing of the arrays was performed using Illumina high-stringency wash buffer for 30 min at 55 °C, followed by scanning according to standard Illumina protocols. Data for probe intensity and detection were captured with Illumina BeadStudio software using background correction and samples were quantile normalized (Schmid, Baum et al. 2010 (link)) and mean centered per chip (Kitchen, Sabine et al. 2010 (link)). Quality standards for hybridization, staining, labeling, and background signal, along with basal level of housekeeping gene expression for each chip were confirmed. The microarray data are deposited in NCBI's Gene Expression Omnibus and are accessible through GEO series accession number GSE63095.

Immunofluorescence experiments were done as reported before (10 (link)). The technique is based on the ability of biotinylated TG2, followed by labeled streptavidin, to selectively bind TG2-specific antibody deposits inside of plasma cells. Briefly, biopsy specimens stored at -70°C were thawed and rinsed with PBS. Primary reagents were incubated in 1.2% BSA in PBS, for 45 min at RT. Sections were extensively rinsed with PBS, and secondary reagents were incubated in 12% BSA in PBS, for 30 min at RT. Sections were rinsed with PBS and mounted. The following antibodies and reagents were used: mouse anti-CD138 (1:25, AbD Serotec), recombinant human TG2 produced in E. coli and biotinylated as reported before (10 (link)) (5 μg/ml), mouse anti-TG2 mAb CUB7402 (1:1000, Neomarkers), anti-TACI (1:200, sc-7332 N-19), anti-BCMA (1:200, sc-11743 N-16), anti-BAFF-R (1:150, eBioscience 8A7) primary antibodies.

Illumina Whole Genome HumanWG6 v4 Expression BeadChips (Illumina Inc, San Diego, CA, USA) were used. Each RNA sample (0.5 μg) was amplified using the Illumina TotalPrep RNA amplification kit with biotin UTP (Enzo Life Sciences, Inc., Farmingdale, NY, USA) labeling. T7 oligo(dT) primers were used to generate single-stranded cDNA followed by a second-strand synthesis to generate double-stranded cDNA, which is then column-purified. In vitro transcription was done to synthesize biotin-labeled cRNA using T7 RNA polymerase. The cRNA was then column-purified and checked for size and yield using the Bio-Rad Experion system (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA). cRNA (1.5 μg) was then hybridized for each array using standard Illumina protocols with streptavidin-Cy3 (Amersham Biosciences, Piscataway, NJ, USA) being used for detection.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Gene expression profiling was performed by using Mouse Whole Genome Gene Expression BeadChip (Illumina). Samples included 7 high-LET radiation-induced HCC, 3 low-LET radiation-induced HCC, 4 spontaneous HCC, 10 non-HCC livers from high-LET–irradiated mice, 4 non-HCC livers from low-LET–irradiated mice and 6 normal livers from sham-irradiated mice. Each RNA sample, with 500 ng of total RNA, was amplified via the Ambion TotalPrep RNA amplification kit (ThermoFisher Scientific). This kit uses a T7 oligo(dT) primer to generate single-stranded cDNA, then a second strand synthesis to generate double-stranded cDNA, which is then column purified. We used in vitro transcription to synthesize biotin-labeled cRNA via T7 RNA polymerase. We then checked the column-purified cRNA for size and yield by using the Bio-Rad Experion system, and we hybridized 1.5 µg of cRNA to each array by using standard Illumina protocols with streptavidin-Cy3 (Amersham) for detection. Arrays were scanned on an Illumina Beadstation.

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.
