RB1-null C33A and RB1-WT HEK293 cells (107 cells per condition) and SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells (207 cells per condition) were cultured in 15-cm dishes, transfected with the indicated expression plasmids, and lysed with ice-cold NP-40 buffer supplemented with protease and phosphatase inhibitors (Roche). All cells were treated with dithiobis succinimidyl propionate (Thermo Fisher Scientific) directly on plastic. Cell lysates were passed 20 times through a 25-gauge needle, incubated on ice for 1 hour, pelleted by centrifugation at 12,000 relative centrifugal force (RCF) for 10 min, precleared by 30 min coincubation with magnetic beads (Life Technologies) at 4°C, and incubated overnight at 4°C with 5 μg of the indicated antibodies per 1 mg of quantified protein lysates. Antibody-protein conjugates were captured by incubation with protein G Dynabeads for 1 hour, washed with ice-cold coimmunoprecipitation buffer, and eluted by boiling in SDS running buffer. Total precleared lysates were used as positive control. Antibodies used for these experiments are listed in data S4.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Prior to cell lysis, cells were washed with PBS and incubated 30min in PBS supplemented with 1mM dithiobis(succinimidyl propionate) (Thermo Fisher Sci) for chemical crosslinking of the intracellular proteins. After crosslinking, cells were washed and the reaction was quenched by addition of PBS supplemented with 20mM Tris, pH 7.4. Thereafter cells were lysed and protein concentrations were determined as described above. Equal amounts of protein were loaded on polyacrylamide gels (NuPAGE Novex 4-12% Bis-Tris Gel, Life tech). In parallel, decrosslinking was performed by incubation of the samples with 50mM of the reducing agent DL-1,4-dithiothreitol (Sigma-Aldrich) 15min at RT followed by 5min at 95°C prior to loading on the gel.

BAC clones RP24-282B18 and RP11-1122M4, carrying the mouse Jun and human PTGS2 loci, respectively (BACPAC Resources, CHORI, Oakland, CA), were labeled with Digoxigenin (DIG) by nick translation (Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, IN) to generate probes for FISH. 10T1/2 cells were grown on coverslips, serum starved for 24 h, and treated with 100 nM TPA for 30 min; CCD-1070Sk cells were serum starved for 48 h and treated with 100 nM TPA for 60 min. After indirect immunolocalization of H3S10ph and H3S28ph, the antigen–antibody complexes were cross-linked with 1 mM dithiobis(succinimidyl propionate) (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA) for 30 min at room temperature. The genomic DNA was denatured using 0.1 N NaOH for 2 min and hybridized to the denatured probes (72°C for 10 min) overnight at 37°C. After extensive washing steps, the probe was detected using primary anti-DIG antibody (Roche Diagnostics) and DyLight 594-conjugated secondary antibody (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories).

Synthesis and Functionalization of SERS Nanotags

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
SERS nanotags were prepared by functionalizing AuNPs with antibodies and Raman reporters and stabilizing with bovine serum albumin (BSA; Life Technologies Australia Pty Ltd.) coatings. Briefly, 60-nm AuNPs were synthesized by citrate reduction of HAuCl4 (39 ). Ten microliters of 1 mM Raman reporters in ethanol (either MBA, TFMBA, DTNB, or MPY) and subsequently 2 μl of 1 mM dithiobis(succinimidyl propionate) (Thermo Fisher Scientific) in dimethyl sulfoxide were added into 1 ml of AuNP solutions and incubated for 5 hours at RT to form a complete self-assembled monolayer. For the functionalization of MPY Raman reporters, 20 μl of 0.1 M NaOH was first added to adjust AuNP solutions to pH = 8. After incubation, the mixture was centrifuged at 7600 rpm for 10 min to remove the residual reactants. The mixture was then resuspended in 200 μl of 0.1 mM PBS and incubated with 2 μg of primary antibodies against either MCSP (R&D Systems, MAB2585), MCAM (R&D Systems, MAB932), ErbB3 (R&D Systems, MAB3481), LNGFR (R&D Systems, MAB367), calnexin (Abcam, ab112995), or CD45 (BioLegend, 368502) for 30 min at RT. The mixture was then centrifuged at 600g at 4°C for 10 min to remove free antibodies and resuspended in 200 μl of 0.1% (w/v) BSA for 0.5 hour at RT to block nonspecific binding sites and stabilize SERS nanotags. The SERS nanotags were stored at 4°C and were stable for months.

Cells were starved and chilled on ice, rinsed twice with ice-cold biotinylation buffer (PBS, 1 mM CaCl2, 0.5 mM MgCl2), and then incubated (30 min, 4°C) with a membrane-impermeable EZ-Link-Sulfo-NHS-LC-biotin (1 mg/mL; Thermo Scientific, Belgium) to label membrane proteins. Free biotin was quenched (0.1 M glycine, 30 min, 4°C) and washed twice with ice-cold biotinylation buffer. Cells were then incubated in pre-warmed media at 37°C with or without NGF. Cells were then incubated with 1 mM Dithiobis Succinimidyl Propionate (Thermo Scientific) dissolved in hybridization buffer (10 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 0.2 mM CaCl2 and 0.2 mM MgCl2) (30 min, 4°C) and then neutralized (20 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5 and 150 mM NaCl) (30 min, 4°C).

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.
