Stable Isogenic Cell Lines from Mutant p53 Variants

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Unless otherwise mentioned, all cell lines were obtained from American Type Culture Collection and used at early passage. Mutant p53 (R175H and R273H) overexpression plasmids encoding proline at codon 72 of p53 were a generous gift from Bert Vogelstein from Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. These plasmids were subjected to site-directed mutagenesis to generate R72 variants (Quick Change II, Stratagene), and all plasmids were verified by sequencing. Cells were transfected with the constructs of interest (5 µg of DNA) with Fugene and selected in 800 µg/mL neomycin for 14 d to make stable isogenic cell lines. For the luciferase plasmids, H1299 and PC3 cells were labeled with luciferase by lentiviral infection by using the plasmids pLenti-CMV-Puro-Luciferase (Addgene) and pLenti-UbC-RedFLuc-T2A-Puro (Targeting Systems, LP-30). The pLenti-UBc-RedFLuc-T2A-Puro plasmid was a generous gift from Dr. Meenhard Herlyn of The Wistar Institute. The antibodies used were as follows: p53 (DO-1) (Calbiochem, OP-43), GAPDH (Cell Signaling Technology, 2118S), TFAM (D5C8) (Cell Signaling Technology, 8076), PGC-1α (EMD Millipore, ST1202), PPARγ (R&D Systems, PP-A3409A-00), and Ki67 (D2H10) (Cell Signaling Technology, 9027).

Whole Cell Extract Preparation and Immunoblotting

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To prepare whole cell extracts from exponentially growing cultures, cells were lysed in RIPA lysis buffer [50 mM Tris, pH 8.0; 150 mM NaCl, 5 mM EDTA (pH 8.0), 1% NP-40, 0.5% sodium deoxycholate, 0.1% SDS and protease inhibitor cocktail (Pierce)]. Lysates were cleared by centrifugation at 12,000 rpm for 15 min and the supernatant was used for Western Blotting. Antibodies for immunoblotting were: TFAM [D5C8] (Cell Signaling), Drp1 [6Z-82] (SCBT), phospho-Drp1-Ser616 [D9A1] (Cell Signaling), cyclin B1 [GNS1] (SCBT), cyclin A [BF683] (SCBT), Ran [610340] (BD Biosciences), MAP LC3β [G-9] (SCBT), Mfn1 [D-10] (SCBT), GAPDH [GA1R] (Invitrogen), Opa1 [612606] (BD Biosciences), Nrf1 [147.1] (SCBT) and Nrf2 [A-10] (SCBT). Image quantification was performed in ImageJ (version 1.53a; freely available at http://imageJ.nih.gov/ij)90 (link). Full-size membranes of Western blots from which panels in Figs. 2–5 were prepared are shown in Supplemental Fig. S5S8.

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.
