In-solution tryptic digestion and peptide cleanup were simultaneously performed in a 96-well plate for high reproducibility. Each depleted sample was supplemented with 8 M urea in 100 mM ammonium bicarbonate (ABC) (Sigma) and incubated at room temperature for 20 min. The samples were homogenized by vortexing and sonication twice. To each sample, dithiothreitol (Sigma) was added to be 10 mM for protein reduction at RT for 1 h. Then, iodoacetamide (Sigma) was added to be 30 mM for the cysteine alkylation at RT for 30 min in the dark. Samples were then diluted with 100 mM ABC prior to the addition of trypsin (MS grade, Pierce) at 1:50 of trypsin:sample ratio (w/w), and incubated at 37 °C for overnight. The trypsin was inactivated by acidification with 0.4% trifluoroacetic acid (Sigma). The acidified digests were immediately processed using a Sep-Pak C18 96-well plate (100 mg C18 sorbent per well, Waters). The peptides were eluted with 80% acetonitrile and then dried in a vacuum centrifuge.

For the analysis of the proteomic profile at 20°C or 37°C, protein extracts were fractionated by SDS-PAGE (in a 10% SDS-polyacrylamide gel) till the whole proteome had penetrated in the resolving gel (about 1 cm of total migration). Gels were stained with Colloidal Blue Staining Kit (Invitrogen). Each proteome was excised and cut into small pieces prior to manual in-gel digestion with trypsin. Excised bands were separately detained with 50 mM ammonium bicarbonate (ABC) (Sigma-Aldrich) and 50% acetonitrile (ACN) (Fisher Chemical). Samples were then reduced with 10 mM dithiothreitol (Bio-Rad) in 50 mM ABC and alkylated with 55 mM iodoacetamide (GE Healthcare Life Sciences) in 50 mM ABC. Then, gel pieces were digested with porcine trypsin (Thermo Fisher Scientific), at a final concentration 12.5 ng/ml in 50 mM ABC, overnight at 37°C. Peptides were extracted using 100% ACN and 0.5% trifluoroacetic acid (Sigma-Aldrich), purified using a Zip Tip (Millipore, Sigma-Aldrich), and dried. Finally, samples were reconstituted in 12 μl of 0.1% formic acid in water (Fisher Chemical) and the peptides were quantified using the Qubit® Protein Assay Kit and the Qubit® 1.0 fluorometer.

Shotgun Protein Sequencing of Venom

For shotgun protein sequencing, whole crude venom from a representative individual of each group was reduced, alkylated, digested and submitted for LC-MS/MS analysis. This was performed by first dissolving 10 μg of lyophilized venom in 20 μL of 8 M urea. Samples were then reduced by incubation at 37 °C for 30 min following addition of 10 μL of 15 mM dithiothreitol (DTT) (Sigma-Aldrich, Sydney, Australia), then cysteine residues were alkylated by adding 10 μL of 100 mM iodoacetamide (IAA)(Bio-Rad) and incubating samples in the dark for 30 min at room temperature. 10 μL of 15 mM DTT was then added to quench excess IAA. 50 μL of 50 mM ammonium bicarbonate (ABC)(Sigma-Aldrich, Sydney, Australia) followed by trypsin (Sigma-Aldrich, Sydney, Australia) (1:50) were then added and the sample was incubated overnight at 37 °C to digest venom peptides and proteins. The samples were then desalted using a C18 ZipTip (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Dried samples were resuspended in mobile phase A (5% acetonitrile, 0.1% formic acid in deionised water).

Organoids were harvested using Cell Recovery Solution (Corning) and multiple ice-cold PBS washes to remove the BME. For protein extraction, a buffer containing 5 M urea (GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL), 50 mM ammonium bicarbonate (ABC) (Sigma-Aldrich) was added to the organoid pellet. Cell lysis was performed by three freeze–thaw cycles, using a −80 °C freezer for freezing and sonication (40 s) in an ultrasonic bath for thawing. Protein concentrations were assessed using Bradford assay, and equal amounts of protein were used for analysis. Protein lysates were reduced with 20 mM Dithiothreitol (DTT) (Sigma-Aldrich) for 45 min, followed by alkylation with 40 mM Iodoacetamide (Sigma-Aldrich) for 45 min in the dark. The alkylation was terminated by 20 mM DDT to consume any excess Iodoacetamide. In solution digestion was performed with a Trypsin/LysC mixture (Promega, Madison, WI), added at a ratio of 1:25 (enzyme:protein), for 2 h at 37 °C in a Thermo Shaker (Grant Instruments, Shepreth, UK) at 250 rpm. The lysate was then diluted to 1 M urea using 50 mM ABC and further digested at 37 °C at 250 rpm overnight. Addition of formic acid (Biosolve, Valkenswaard, The Netherlands) to a total of 1% terminated the digestion.

For immunoprecipitation, ground plant material of pTIR1::TIR1-VENUS in tir1-1 and pAFB1::AFB1-VENUS in afb1-3 transgenic lines was lysed in mild lysis buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 2 mM MgCl2, 0.2 mM EDTA, 1xCPI, 0.5 mM DTT, 0.2% NP40 and 1 mg/ml DNAse) and mildly sonicated using a Bioruptor (Diagenode). After lysate clearance, supernatant was submitted to enrichment using GFP-Trap agarose beads (Chromotek) for 45 minutes at 4°C while gently rotating. Beads were subsequently washed twice in lysis buffer, twice in detergent-free lysis buffer and trice in 50 mM Ammoniumbicarbonate (ABC) (Sigma) with intermediate centrifuging for 2 minutes at 2000g at 4°C. After a final wash, bead-precipitated proteins were alkylated using 50 mM Acrylamide (Sigma). Precipitated proteins were submitted to on-bead trypsin digestion using 0.35 μg trypsin (Roche) per reaction. After overnight incubation at 25°C peptides were desalted and concentrated using C18 Stagetips.
After Stagetip processing, peptides were applied to online nanoLC-MS/MS using a 60 minutes acetonitrile gradient from 8-50%. Spectra were recorded on a LTQ-XL mass spectrometer (Thermo Scientific) according to31

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.
