Nucleofector sg kit

Manufactured by Lonza

The Nucleofector SG kit is a laboratory equipment product designed for the transfection of nucleic acids, such as plasmid DNA or RNA, into a variety of cell types. It provides a convenient and efficient method for introducing genetic material into cells. The core function of the Nucleofector SG kit is to facilitate the delivery of nucleic acids into cells using an electrical pulse-based technology.

Non-risk or risk sequences surrounding rs10499197 or rs58905141 were cloned from EBV B cells positive for the non-risk or risk TNFAIP3 SLE risk haplotype tagged by rs10499197 into a minimal promoter firefly luciferase plasmid, pGL4.23 (Promega) (Supplementary Table S2) (Wang et al., 2013 (link); Pasula et al., 2020 (link); Gopalakrishnan et al., 2022 (link)). Quick change II site directed mutagenesis kit (Agilent Technologies; #200523) was used following manufacturer’s instructions to allele swap rs9494868 (Supplementary Table S2). Empty vector, non-risk clone, or risk clone was transiently co-transfected with the transfection control renilla luciferase plasmid, pRL-TK, using a 4D Amaxa Nucleofector Unit (Lonza) for Jurkat cells (Nucleofector SE kit; #V4XC-1032), THP-1 cells (Nucleofector SG kit; #V4XC-3032), and EBV B cells (Nucleofector SF kit; #V4XC-2032). Twenty-four hours post transfection, cells were stimulated with P/I for 2 h. Enhancer activity was determined using the Promega Dual-Luciferase Reporter Assay kit (Promega) following manufacturer’s protocol. Relative luciferase units (RLU) were determined by normalizing the firefly luciferase activity to the Renilla luciferase activity. RLU were normalized to the vector-only control and reported as normalized RLU.

Functional Validation of TNIP1 Variants

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
DNA sequences, approximately 350 bp in length, surrounding selected non-risk or risk TNIP1 variants were PCR amplified (Supplementary Table 1) and cloned into a minimal promoter luciferase plasmid, pGL4.23 (Promega, Madison, WI). CREB1 (GenScript; #OHu22955D) and BHLHE40/DEC1 (GenScript; #OHu17520) cloned into flag-tag overexpression cloning vector, pcDNA3.1/C-(K)DYK were purchased from GenScript (Piscataway, NJ). Indicated plasmids was transiently co-transfected with the pRL-TK plasmid into Jurkat (Nucleofector SE kit, #V4XC-1032), THP-1 (Nucleofector SG kit, #V4XC-3032), or EBV B (Nucleofector SF kit, #V4XC-2032) cells using Amaxa Nucleofector (Lonza, Portsmouth, NH; SF kit). The pRL-TK plasmid was used for normalization and to calculate transfection efficiency. Twenty-four hours post transfection, cells were treated with P/I (50 ng/ml, 500 ng/ml) for 2 h, then the enhancer activity was measured using the Dual-Luciferase reporter assay (Promega, Madison, WI) as previously described (29 (link)).

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.
