MEFs were pulse-labelled with 25 uM CldU for 20 min, washed three times with medium, incubated in 2 mM HU for 4 hours, washed three times with medium, and pulse-labelled with 250 uM IdU for 20 min. Labelled cells were harvested, lysed in spreading buffer (200 mM Tris-HCL ph 7.4, 50 mM EDTA, 0.5% SDS) and DNA fibers were spread on slides. CldU and IdU were detected by incubating acid-treated fiber spreads with rat anti-BrdU monoclonal antibody (AbD Serotec) and mouse anti-BrdU monoclonal antibody (Becton Dickinson) for 1 hr at 37°C respectively. Slides were fixed with 4% PFA and incubated with AlexaFluor 555–conjugated goat anti–rat IgG (Molecular Probes) and AlexaFluor 488–conjugated goat anti–mouse IgG (Molecular Probes) for 1 hr at 37°C. Fibers were imaged using an LSM780 (Carl ZeissMicroscopy Ltd) confocal microscope and analysed using ImageJ software (NIH). At least 100 tracks were scored per condition.

Cells were pulse-labeled with 25 µM CldU and 250 µM IdU as indicated. Labelled cells were harvested and DNA fibre spreads prepared as described earlier (22 (link)). For immunodetection of CldU-labelled tracts, acid-treated fibre spreads were incubated with rat anti-BrdU monoclonal antibody (AbD Serotec) that recognises CldU, but not IdU for 1 hour at room temperature. Slides were fixed with 4% formaldehyde and incubated with an AlexaFluor 555-conjugated goat anti-rat IgG (Molecular Probes) for 1.5 hour at room temperature. IdU-labelled patches were detected using a mouse anti-BrdU monoclonal antibody (Becton Dickinson) that recognises IdU, but not CldU over night at 4 °C, followed by an AlexaFluor 488-conjugated goat anti-mouse F(ab’)2 fragment (Molecular Probes) for 1.5 hour at room temperature. Fibres were examined using a using a Biorad Radiance confocal microscope using a 60 × (1.3NA) lens. The lengths of CldU (AF 555, red) and IdU (AF 488, green) labelled patches were measured using the ImageJ software, and µm values were converted into kb using the conversion factor 1 µm=2.59 kb (22 (link)). Replication structures were quantified using the Cell Counter Plug-in for ImageJ (Kurt De Vos, University of Sheffield, UK).

MCF7 cells were transfected with 100 nM hSSB1 siRNA or control siRNA (Allstars negative control siRNA, Qiagen) using Lipofectamine 2000 according to manufacturer's instructions, and re-transfected with hSSB1 siRNA 24 h later. Twenty-four hours after the second transfection, cells were pulse labelled with 25 μM CldU for 20 min, washed three times with medium, incubated in 2 mM HU for 2 h, washed three times with medium and pulse labelled with 250 μM IdU for 1 h. Labelled cells were harvested and DNA fibre spreads prepared as previously described (23 (link)). CldU was detected by incubating acid treated fibre spreads with rat anti-BrdU monoclonal antibody (1:1000, AbD Serotec) for 1 h. Slides were fixed with 4% PFA (paraformaldehyde) and incubated with Alexa-Fluor 555-conjugated goat anti-rat IgG (1:500, Molecular Probes) for 1.5 h. IdU was detected using mouse anti-BrdU monoclonal antibody (1:1000, Becton Dickinson) over night at 4°C and Alexa-Fluor 488-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG (1:500, Molecular Probes) for 1.5 h. Fibres were examined using a Biorad Radiance confocal microscope with a 60× oil immersion objective. For quantification of replication structures, at least 250 structures per experiment were counted using the ImageJ software (National Institutes of Health, http://rsbweb.nih.gov/ij/). Statistical analysis was performed using a one-tailed paired t-test.

Giardia cells were applied to the poly-L-lysine coated glass slides for 10 min, fixed in ice-cold methanol at –20°C for 10 min, and permeabilized with phosphate buffered saline (PBS; 137 mM NaCl, 2.7 mM KCl, 10 mM Na2HPO4, and 1.8 mM KH2PO4, pH 7.4) with 0.5% Triton X-100 for 10 min. After blocking for 1 h in PBS/5% goat serum/3% bovine serum albumin, the cells were incubated with 1:100 diluted anti-GlKin-13 antibodies or anti-phosphorylated PLK (ab39068; Abcam, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA) overnight at 4°C, and subsequently incubated with 1:200 diluted Alexa Fluor 555-conjugated goat anti-rat IgG (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The slides were counterstained with diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) and observed using an inverted confocal laser scanning microscope (LSM700; Carl Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany).

Immunofluorescence staining of Gd-IgA1 in renal biopsy specimens was conducted using formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections of 3 μm in thickness. After deparaffinization using xylene and ethanol concentration series and subsequent rehydration, antigen retrieval using 0.05% bacterial protease subtilisin A (Sigma-Aldrich, Tokyo, Japan) dissolved in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) was performed at room temperature for 2 h. Samples were then rinsed with distilled water 3 times and blocked with 10% goat serum (Nichirei Bioscience, Tokyo, Japan) at room temperature for 30 minutes, followed by incubation with KM55 antibody (Immuno-Biological Laboratories, Fujioka, Japan) at 37°C for 60 minutes. After 3 washes with PBS, samples were incubated with Alexa Fluor 555-conjugated goat anti-rat IgG (1:1,000; Thermo Fisher, Tokyo, Japan) at 37°C for 30 minutes. Samples were washed with PBS and incubated with FITC-conjugated polyclonal goat anti-human IgA (1:40; MBL, Nagoya, Japan) at 37°C for 30 minutes. After being washed again with PBS, the slides were sealed. Tissues were observed under an LSM710 immunofluorescent microscope (Carl Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany). The specificity of KM55 antibody against Gd-IgA1 was previously demonstrated by immunohistochemistry and a neutralization assay (9 (link)).

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.
