Gateway compatible modified ptnt vectors

Manufactured by Promega

The Gateway compatible modified pTnT vectors are designed for high-level protein expression in mammalian cells. These vectors leverage the Gateway cloning system to facilitate rapid and efficient transfer of DNA sequences into the expression construct. The pTnT backbone provides a strong, inducible promoter to drive robust protein production.

For in vitro pull-down assays, additional constructs were made. The pENTR/D-TOPO plasmids (Invitrogen) containing the sequences encoding GI, PIF1, and PIF5 have been previously described (Pruneda-Paz et al., 2014 (link); Sawa and Kay, 2011 (link)). Full-length PIF3, PIF4, and GFP sequences were amplified by PCR (primers used are listed in supplemental Table S2) and cloned into the pENTR/D-TOPO vector (Invitrogen). Partial PIF3 sequences were amplified by PCR (primers used are listed in supplemental Table S2) and cloned into the pDONRZeo vector (Invitrogen) by Gateway BP recombination reaction (Invitrogen). To express proteins in the cell-free system, all inserts were transferred by Gateway LR recombination reaction (Invitrogen) into Gateway compatible modified pTnT vectors (Promega) (Nito et al., 2013 (link)), which were kindly provided by Dr. Joanne Chory (The SALK Institute, La Jolla, CA). The vectors contained an N-terminal HA or Flag tag as specified in each case. Proteins were co-expressed using TnT® SP6 High-Yield Wheat Germ Protein Expression System (Promega) as per manufacturer’s instructions. Five percent of the reactions (2.5 μl) were used to verify expression of the proteins (input) and the remaining extract was immunoprecipitated as earlier described (Pedmale et al., 2016 (link)) using anti-HA 3F10 antibody (Roche).

To express proteins in the cell-free system, all inserts were transferred by Gateway LR recombination reaction (Invitrogen) into Gateway compatible modified pTnT vectors (Promega) containing an N-terminal HA or FLAG tag as specified in each case. pDONR207-PIF7 was recombined with the pTnT-HA vector to produce PIF7 fused to HA. The construct containing GI in the pTnT-FLAG vector has already been described (19 (link)). For the in vitro pull-down assays, proteins were co-expressed using TnT® SP6 High-Yield Wheat Germ Protein Expression System (Promega) as per manufacturer’s instructions. Five percent of the reactions (2.5 µl) were used to verify expression of the proteins (input) and the remaining extract was immunoprecipitated as earlier described (47 (link)) using a modified IP buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.6, 150 mM NaCl, 0.5% Triton X-100, 1x protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche), 1x Phosphatase Inhibitors I&II (Sigma) and 25 μM MG-132) and the anti-HA 3F10 antibody (Roche).

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.
