Pbabe k ras 12v

Manufactured by Addgene

The PBabe K‐Ras 12V is a plasmid that contains the K-Ras gene with the 12V mutation. The K-Ras gene is a member of the Ras family of genes, which play a role in cell signaling and growth. The 12V mutation is a common oncogenic mutation found in various types of cancer.

cDNA encoding mCherry‐α‐tubulin, mCardinal‐H1, and dTomato‐VE‐cadherin were PCR‐amplified from pmCherry_α_tubulin_IRES_puro2 [kindly provided by Daniel Gerlich (Steigemann et al, 2009)], mCardinal‐H1‐10 [a gift from Michael Davidson (Chu et al, 2014; Addgene plasmid # 56161)], and tdTomato‐VE‐cadherin‐N‐10 (a gift from Michael Davidson (Addgene plasmid # 58142), respectively, and subsequently ligated into pMXs‐IRES‐Blasticidin (Cell Biolabs Inc.).
MCF10A ecoR cell lines allowing doxycycline‐inducible expression of EGFP‐NLP, EGFP‐CEP68 and EGFP‐PLK4 were described previously (Schnerch & Nigg, 2016). Doxycycline‐inducible MDCK II cells were generated using the same two‐step transduction strategy and enriched by antibiotic selection using hygromycin at 400 μg ml−1 and puromycin at 2 μg ml−1. Inducible MDCK and MCF10A cells stably expressing mCherry‐α‐tubulin, dTomato‐E‐cadherin and mCardinal H1 were generated by retroviral transduction and sorted by flow cytometry using BD FACSAria IIIu cell sorter (FACS Core Facility of Biozentrum). MCF10A ecoR cells stably expressing K‐Ras were obtained by ecotropic retroviral transduction with pBabe K‐Ras 12V [Addgene plasmid #12544, gift from Channing Der (Khosravi‐Far et al, 1996)].

Establishing Oncogenic RAS in Primary Keratinocytes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The v-rasHa replication-defective ecotropic retrovirus was prepared using Psi2 producer cells. Retrovirus titers were routinely 1 × 107 virus/mL. Cultured primary keratinocytes were infected with v-rasHa retrovirus (here referred to as RAS or oncogenic RAS) on day 3 at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 1 in medium containing hexadimethrine bromide (4 μg/mL; Sigma, 107689). The IκBsr (IκB super repressor) adenovirus or Cre recombinase (Cre) were introduced into primary keratinocytes using an adenoviral construct driven by a cytomegalovirus promoter, and a similarly constructed adeno-GFP was used as control. Keratinocytes were adenovirus-infected for 30 minutes in serum-free medium with a MOI of 10 viral particles per cell and hexadimethrine bromide (4 μg/mL) to enhance uptake. Serum-containing medium was added to the cells for the next 48 hours after the infection. The cDNAs for human RAS oncogenes were purchased from Addgene: pBabe HRAS 12V (plasmid #12545), pBabe KRAS 12V (plasmid #12544). The promoter FerH (25 (link)) and RAS cDNAs were cloned into pLV-CE vector and high titer lentivirus (10e8 TU per mL) were produced (Cellomics Technology, LLC).

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.
