Expression and purification of Xenopus laevis core histone H2A, H2B, H3, and H4 and subsequent assembly of a histone octamer were performed following published protocols.39 (link) H1G101C, a mutant of X. laevis linker histone H1° (termed H1 in this paper), was expressed and purified according to a previously published method.40 After purification with a cation exchange column (Bio-Rex 70, 50–100 mesh, Bio-Rad Laboratories Inc., product no. 142-5832), H1G101C was labeled with the Cy5 maleimide monoreactive dye (GE Healthcare, product no. PA25031) according to the instructions recommended by the manufacturer. The labeling reaction mixture was purified with another cation exchange column (Bio-Rex 70, 100–200 mesh, Bio-Rad Laboratories Inc., product no. 142-5842) to remove any free dye. The labeling efficiency was close to 100% according to the absorbance values at 280 and 650 nm utilizing a correction factor of 0.05 for the dye at 280 nm. N-Terminally His6-tagged yeast Nap1 (termed Nap1 in this paper) was overexpressed and purified according to previously published protocols.41 (link) Briefly, yNap1 was purified with a Ni-NTA column (HisPur Ni-NTA, Thermo Scientific, product no. 88222) and a Mono-Q anion exchange column (Mono Q 4.6/100 PE, GE Healthcare, product code 17-5179-01).

TTX and its analogs were extracted from the visceral part of fish with 0.1% acetic acid by heating in a boiling water bath for 10 min, according to the method for TTX described in Standard Methods of Analysis in Food Safety, Japan [37 ]. TTX and its analogs, 4,9-anhydroTTX and 5,6,11-trideoxyTTX, were isolated by successive column chromatography on activated charcoal (for chromatography; Wako, Osaka, Japan), Bio-Gel P-2 (200–400 mesh; Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA), and Bio-Rex 70 (200–400 mesh; Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA) according to the method described by Nagashima et al., [14 (link)]. 4,9-anhydroTTX thus isolated was used to prepare the antigen. In addition, an aliquot of isolated TTX (ca. 10 µmol) was dissolved in 5 mL of 0.1% acetic acid and heated in boiling water for 30 min. 4-epiTTX and 4,9-anhydroTTX produced in the reaction mixture were isolated by Bio-Rex 70 column chromatography (200–400 mesh, 1.5 × 115 cm) and used as the materials for the examination of their cross-reactions with the polyclonal antibody against TTX, which was produced in the present study as described below. Moreover, 11-oxoTTX was prepared from the isolated TTX by treating with the FeSO4 and H2O2 mixture, according to Wu et al. [40 (link)] (Figure S1).

Sugarcane (Saccharum sp.) cultivar SP80-3280 was propagated from stem cuttings and grown in a 12 h light/12 h dark photoperiod at 26°C for six months. Nuclei were isolated from sugarcane according to Bowler et al. [31 (link)] with small modifications. Briefly, 40 g of material was blended in the presence of 300 ml of cold Nuclei grinding buffer (1 M hexylene glycol, 10 mM PIPES/KOH pH 7.0, 10 mM MgCl2, 10 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, 0.5 mM PMSF, 10 mM NaF, 20 mM sodium butyrate), Triton X-100 was then added to 0.5%. After 10 min incubation, the nuclei were pelleted by centrifugation for 10 min at 1000 g, resuspended in Nuclei wash buffer (0.5 M hexylene glycol, 10 mM PIPES/KOH pH 7.0, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.2% Triton X-100, 10 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, 0.5 mM PMSF, 10 mM NaF, 20 mM sodium butyrate) and pelleted again by centrifugation for 10 min at 4000 g. Bulk histones were then extracted from the nuclear pellet using the cation exchange resin Biorex-70 (Bio-rad) as described by Waterborg et al. [32 (link)].

From the ovaries of T. rubripes, TTX with a purity greater than 60% was prepared, and from the xanthid crab Zosimus aeneus, STX with a purity greater than 80% was prepared by solvent partitioning, activated charcoal treatment, and Bio-Gel P-2 (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Hercules, CA, USA) and Bio-Rex 70 (Bio-Rad) column chromatography according to the previously reported method [37 (link)], and used for the intrarectal TTX/STX administration experiment. Crystalline TTX (Wako Pure Chemical Industries Ltd., Tokyo, Japan) and an aqueous solution of STX purified from the xanthid crab Z. aeneus were used as external standards for the toxin quantification analyses described below.

All core RNAP subunits were expressed in E. coli BL21(DE3) cells transformed with pGEMABC (encoding rpoA, rpoB, and rpoC) and pACYCDuet-1_Ec_rpoZ (encoding rpoZ) (Murakami, 2013 (link)). Core RNAP was purified as follows. 16 g of cell paste was suspended in 50 ml of lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8 at 4 °C), 1 mM EDTA, 5 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, protease inhibitor mixture, and 2 mM PMSF), and cells were lysed using sonication. After a low-speed spin, RNAP in the soluble fraction was precipitated by adding 10% polyethyleneimine (Polymin P) solution (final concentration of 0.6%), and the pellet was recovered by low-speed centrifugation. RNAP was eluted from the pellet by suspension in TGED buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8 at 4 °C), 10% glycerol, 0.1 mM EDTA, and 2 mM DTT) plus 1 M NaCl and then precipitated by ammonium sulfate (final 60% saturation). The pellet was suspended in TGED buffer and dialyzed against TGED buffer plus 50 mM NaCl. Core RNAP was purified by BioRex 70 (Bio-Rad), HiTrap Q (GE Healthcare), and Superdex 200 (GE Healthcare) column chromatography. E. coli σ70 was expressed in BL21(DE3) cells transformed with pGEMD (Murakami, 2013 (link)). After cells were lysed by sonication, σ70 was purified by HiTrap Q HP (GE Healthcare) and Superdex 200 column chromatography.

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.
