Recombinant smn

Manufactured by Enzo Life Sciences

Recombinant SMN is a laboratory product that provides the survival motor neuron (SMN) protein. The SMN protein is a key component involved in the assembly and function of small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs), which are essential for pre-mRNA splicing. This product can be used for research purposes related to the study of SMN and its role in cellular processes.

Purification of 80S ribosomes was performed from NSC-34 depleted from SMN using CRISPR-Cas9 technology (11 (link)). The lysate was treated with RNase I (7.5 Units /1 Abs260 lysate) at RT for 45 min and analyzed by sucrose gradient (10-40%) (65 (link)). The fraction corresponding to the 80S was collected and 2mM DTT was added. After centrifugation at 90,000 rpm for 4 h using a TLA100.2 rotor (Beckmann) the pellet was resuspended in 10 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 150 mM NaCl, 2 mM DTT, 100 μg/mL cycloheximide and stored at −80°C. Ribosome concentration was calculated as in (66 (link)). Recombinant SMN was purchased (ENZO) and incubated with ribosomes for 2 h at 4°C. SMN bound ribosomes were purified from unbound SMN by ultracentrifugation at 90,000 rpm for 4 h using the TLA100.2 rotor on 30% sucrose cushion. The supernatant was kept for protein purification by using the chloroform/methanol protocol and the pellet was directly dissolved in sample buffer (Santa Cruz), heated at 99°C for 10 min and resolved by SDS-PAGE. SMN and RPL26, were detected using primary and secondary antibodies described above.

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.
