The ultraperformance liquid chromatograph (UPLC) analysis was carried out, using an Acquity UPLC system (Waters Corporation, Milford, MA, USA) equipped with a binary pump, inline degasser, and autosampler coupled to an electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometer (ESI-Q-TOF/MS) (Waters Corporation, USA). Separation was carried out on BEH C18 column (100 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.7 μm, Milford, USA). The mobile phase consisted of LC grade water with 0.1% formic acid (A) and LC grade acetonitrile (B) with the following gradient profiles: 0–2 min, 5% B; 2–14 min, 5–98% B; 14–16 min, 98% B; and 16–20 min, 98–5% B. The flow rate was 0.4 mL·min−1. Before the analysis, samples were dissolved in methanol (10 mg·mL−1), centrifuged at 10,000 rpm, filtered using a 0.22 μm filter, and injected (injection volume of 15 μL).

Anti-HER2 nanobodies 2Rs15d, 2Rb17c and 1R136b were produced with 3 types of C-terminal amino acid tags: untagged (nanobody), His-tag (nanobody-HHHHHH), and Myc-His-tag (nanobody-AAAEQKLISEEDLNGAA-HHHHHH). Nanobodies were expressed in bacteria and purified, as described previously 22 (link). Briefly, the sequences were re-cloned into an expression vector either containing a His-tag (pHEN6), a Myc-His-tag (pHEN18), or devoid of any tag (pHEN21). The recombinant vectors were transformed into E. coli WK6 cells for nanobody expression and extraction of periplasmic proteins. His- and Myc-His-tagged nanobodies were further purified by affinity chromatography on His-Select Nickel Affinity Gel (GE Healthcare). Untagged control nanobody BcII10, recognizing a bacterial enzyme 23 (link), and both untagged 2Rb17c and 1R136b were purified on protein A Sepharose beads (GE Healthcare). The production of untagged 2Rs15d was performed according to Xavier and coworkers 16 . Final purification of all nanobodies was perfomed through size-exclusion chromatography using Superdex 75 16/60 columns (GE Healthcare) in PBS. Protein purity and integrity were evaluated using SEC on Superdex 75 10/30 (GE Healthcare) in PBS, at flow rate 0.5 mL/min. In addition, ESI-Q-ToF-MS (Waters,Micromass) was performed, in positive mode.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Conjugation of 1B4M-DTPA to Trastuzumab was performed based on the protocol described by Sampath and coworkers, to yield a DTPA:Trastuzumab ratio of 5:1 34 (link). Briefly, a 100-fold molar excess of bifunctional chelator 1B4M-DTPA was conjugated overnight at RT to the free ε-amino-groups of lysines in Trastuzumab (Herceptin®, Hoffman-La Roche, Missis-sauga, ON, USA) in 3500 µl of 0.05 M sodium carbonate buffer (pH 8.5). The reaction was quenched by reducing the pH to 7.0. DTPA-Trastuzumab was purified on Superdex 75 10/30 (GE Healthcare) in 0.1 M ammonium acetate buffer pH 7.0. The degree of conjugation was evaluated with ESI-Q-ToF-MS (Waters, Micromass), in positive mode. The necessary amount of 177Lu was added to a test vial containing metal-free 0.1 M ammonium acetate buffer pH 5.0, to reach an end volume of 200 µL. Then, 100-250 µg DTPA-Trastuzumab (2.4 mg/mL) was added and incubated for 30 min at RT. 177Lu-DTPA-Trastuzumab was purified on a disposable Nap-5 gelfiltration column (GE Healthcare) and pushed through a 0.22 µm filter. Radiochemical purity was assessed using iTLC and radio- SEC, as described above.

A 10-fold molar excess of bifunctional chelator 1B4M-DTPA (for 177Lu) or CHX-A''-DTPA (for 111In) was conjugated for 3 h at RT to the free ε-amino-groups of lysines in the nanobodies in 600 µl of 0.05 M sodium carbonate buffer (pH 8.5). The conjugation reaction was quenched by reducing the pH of the mixture to pH 7.0. Nanobody-chelator was purified on Superdex 75 10/30 (GE Healthcare) in 0.1 M ammonium acetate buffer pH 7.0. The mean degree of conjugation was evaluated with ESI-Q-ToF-MS (Waters, Micromass), in positive mode.

Collision induced dissociation of precursor ions was performed by ramping the collision energy from 10 to 40 V. Ions with an m/z of 221.08 (± 0.01) and 165.02 (± 0.01) were monitored to identify MBP and PA, respectively. The data analysis was performed using Mass Lynx V4.1.

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.
