Detection of Yhb1 protein isoforms

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To detect the holo form of Yhb1, cells were resuspended in PBS containing a mixture of protease inhibitors and disrupted using glass beads in a BioSpec Mini-Beadbeater. These protein extracts were centrifuged (3000 rpm for 5 min) and 20 μg of protein were loaded in polyacrylamide gels and separated in native conditions (without SDS). After electrophoresis, gels were directly imaged in a ChemiDoc XRS to detect Flavin fluorescent signal (Excitation: Blue Epi Illumination; Emission: 530/28 filter) or transferred to a PVDF membrane, washed once with TBS buffer and incubated with HPR substrate to detect heme peroxidase activity. The chemiluminescent signal was acquired in a ChemiDoc XRS.

Peptide-Mediated Cas9 Nanocomplex Formation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Peptide-mediated complexation was determined by performing a fluorescence-based electrophoretic mobility shift assay by using a non-stained and non-denaturing 1.5% agarose gel in TAE buffer with a pH of 8.3. For this, Cas9-GFP (Merck), ATTO-550-labeled tracrRNA, unlabeled crRNA (IDT), Alexa-647-labeled HDR template (IDT) and unlabeled LAH5 peptides were used. Labeled components and unlabeled LAH5 peptides were formulated at various molar ratios as described above. All labeled components were diluted such that the final concentration reached 1 µM when loaded on gel. All formulated nanocomplexes were adjusted to a total volume of 10 µL by adding nuclease-free water. Then, 2 µL of 40% Glycerol was added, after which samples were loaded into the wells of the gel. The agarose gel was run at 170 V for 15 min. Gel images were captured by ChemiDocTM XRS+ (Bio-Rad, Lunteren, The Netherlands), and fluorescent images were merged and analyzed with ChemiDocTM XRS+ (Bio-Rad) with Image lab software version 5.0.

Protein samples were taken up in sample buffer (sample final concentration 40 mM Tris-HCl, pH 6.8, 1% SDS, 5% glycerol, 0.0125% bromophenol blue, 1% β-mercaptoethanol) and incubated for 5 minutes at 95°C. Proteins were run on a 4–12% SDS-PAGE in MES running buffer for H2A or H2AK119ub analysis or MOPS running buffer for analysis of all other proteins. Samples were transferred to a 0.45 μm nitrocellulose blotting membrane. The membrane was stained using ponceau staining and imaged using the Bio-Rad ChemiDoc XRS+ with Image Lab version 5.1 build 8. Membranes were subsequently developed with the appropriate antibodies and Clarity Western ECL (Bio-Rad) or SuperSignal West Femto Maximum Sensitivity Substrate (Thermo Scientific) and scanned using the Bio-Rad ChemiDoc XRS+ and Image Lab version 5.1 build 8. Immunoblot bands were quantified using Image Lab version 6.0.1 build 34 and visualized using R version 4.0.2 with Rstudio version 1.3.1093. For the immunoprecipitations showing the BAP1-HAT1 interaction, nitrocellulose membranes were developed with appropriate antibodies and scanned on Odyssey Imaging Sytem (LI-COR Biosciences).

Total protein lysate was harvested in RIPA buffer (Fuchs et al., 2011 (link)), and proteins separated by 12% SDS-PAGE were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane (GE Healthcare) for 70 Vh at 4°C. Following transfer, membranes were blocked in 1% milk in PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature, washed three times in phosphate buffered saline with 0.1% (w/v) Tween 20 (PBS/T) for 10 minutes each and placed in primary antibody overnight at 4°C. Primary antibodies used were rabbit RACK1 (1:2000 dilution, Cell Signaling #4716S), FLAG-HRP (1:1000, Sigma-Aldrich, #F2555), L13a (1:1000, Cell Signaling #2765S), actin (1:1000, Sigma-Aldrich #A2066), RPS25 (1:1000, abcam, #ab102940), and PV 3CD (kind gift from Karla Kirkegaard). Following overnight incubation, membranes were washed three times in PBS/T for 10 minutes each. For visualization of the HRP-conjugated FLAG antibody, membranes were directly imaged on a BioRad ChemiDoc XRS+. For all other antibodies, membranes were incubated in a 1:10,000 dilution of goat anti-rabbit secondary (Jackson) in 5% milk and PBS/T. Membranes were washed a final 3 times in PBS/T for 10 minutes each prior to being imaged on the BioRad ChemiDoc XRS+.

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.
