Affinity-purified rabbit polyclonal antibody against AMAP1 was as described previously.21 (link) Rabbit polyclonal antibody against EPB41L5 was raised against a GST-fused peptide corresponding to amino acids (aa) 541–733 of EPB41L5. The resulting serum was adsorbed with GST and then affinity-purified using the antigen peptide, before use. Other antibodies were purchased from commercial sources: mouse monoclonal antibodies against p53 (#2524, Cell Signaling Technology, Beverley, CA, USA), V5-tag (#R960-25, Invitrogen), HA-tag (#MMS-101R, Biolegend, San Diego, CA, USA), E-cadherin (#610182, BD Biosciences), and β-actin (#A5441, Sigma-Aldrich); and rabbit polyclonal antibodies against Smad2 (#3103), Ser465/467-phosphorylated Smad2 (#3101), ZEB1 (#3396), Snail (#3879), and Slug (#9585) (all from Cell Signaling Technology). Donkey antibodies against rabbit (#711-036-152) and mouse immunoglobulins G (#711-036-151), each conjugated with horseradish peroxidase, were from Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories (West Grove, PA, USA).
Immunoblotting analysis was performed by use of ECL kit (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Piscataway, NJ, USA), as described previously.20 (link), 21 (link), 24 (link), 25 (link)

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The RBP of interest was cloned upstream of the Drosophila ADAR catalytic domain (the whole C terminus downstream of the 2nd dsRBD was used, starting Y268 to terminal E669 of AHN59262.1) with minimal linker region into a pMT-A vector (Invitrogen, V4120-20, also harboring a blasticidin resistance gene). Stable S2 cell lines were made by transfecting with the pMT-RBP-ADARcd-V5-Blasticidin plasmid followed by subsequent blasticidin resistance selection. Fusion protein expression was induced by introduction of copper sulphate for 24 hours, prior to harvesting protein and RNA. S2 cell expression of all fusion proteins was assayed by western blot for the V5 tag (Invitrogen, 46-1157). Nascent RNA was extracted from S2 cells, according to Khodor et al. (2011) (link) and depleted of ribosomal RNA according to Pennington et al. (2013) (link) and mRNA (two rounds of pA depletion using Invitrogen Dynabeads Oligo dT, according to manufacturer's protocol).
Fluorescently labelled neurons were isolated from dissected, triturated fly brains by manual sorting using a glass micro-pipette, as described in Abruzzi et al. (2015) (link). RNA sequencing libraries from S2 cells were constructed using the standard Illumina Truseq kit protocol. RNA-sequencing libraries from manually sorted neurons were made as described in Abruzzi et al. (2015) (link).

Proteins separated by SDS-PAGE were electrophoretically transferred onto Immobilon-P polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes (Millipore), which were then blocked at room temperature with 5% nonfat dry milk powder and 0.2% Tween-20 dissolved in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) containing 154 mM NaCl and 10 mM Na2PO4 (pH 7.4). The membranes were incubated for 2 hr at room temperature or overnight at 4°C with primary antibodies at a 1:10,000 dilution in blocking solution, and washed with PBS containing 0.2% Tween-20. The membranes were then incubated for 2 hr with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-decorated goat anti-rabbit secondary antibodies (SeraCare, Cat. No. 5220–0341) at 1:10,000 dilution in blocking solution, followed by washes with PBS containing 0.2% Tween-20. Chemiluminescence was generated using the SuperSignal West Pico Plus Chemiluminescent Substrate (Thermo Fisher) and captured with X-ray film. Primary polyclonal antibodies included those against AtSUMO1 [20 (link)], histone H3 (Abcam; ab1791), α and γ zeins [41 (link)], the T7 Tag polyclonal antibody coupled to HRP (Invtrogen; Cat. No. PA1-33133), and the V5 tag (Invitrogen; Cat. No. PA1-993).

Wild-type RARA and RXRB entry clones were obtained from the hORFeome v8.171 (link) collection. Gateway LR reactions were used to transfer bait RARA wild-type, p.Pro375Leu, and p.Arg83His into a pQXIP (ClonTech, 631516) vector modified to include a Gateway cassette featuring a C-terminal 3×FLAG. Prey RXRB was transferred into pcDNA-DEST40 which includes a V5 tag (Invitrogen, 12274–015) also using Gateway LR reactions.

IHC was performed as previously reported [32 (link),35 (link)]. Briefly, the mice were transcardially perfused with 10% neutralized formalin and the brains were removed and immersed in 25% sucrose solution, cut into five series of 30 μm sections and stored in cryoprotectant at 20 °C until processed for IHC. Brain sections were rinsed in PBS, blocked in 3% normal donkey serum and 0.3% Triton X-100 in PBS for 30 min at room temperature. Sections were then incubated with primary antibodies against GFP (Aves Labs), mCherry (Clontech), c-Fos (CalBioChem), or V5 tag (Invitrogen) overnight at 4 °C, and then washed and incubated with Cy2-, Cy3- or Cy5-conjugated secondary antibodies (Jackson ImmunoResearch) for fluorescent visualization or with HRP-conjugated secondary antibody for chromogenic staining using an ABC kit as per the manufacturer’s instructions (Vector Laboratories).

Cell pellets were collected and resuspended in lysis buffer (600mM Nacl, 1% Triton X-100 in PBS, 1 X protease inhibitor). 30 εg of total protein lysates of each sample was separated by electrophoresis in 10 % SDS-PAGE gels and transferred onto 0.45 εm PVDF transfer membranes using a Semi-Dry transfer cell (Trans-Blot SD, Bio-Rad). Membranes were blocked for 1 h at room temperature using blocking buffer (5 % nonfat milk in TBST) and incubated with antibodies against V5 Tag, or V5-HRP (Invitrogen), or β-actin (Santa Cruz). Next, membranes were washed three times using TBST, 5 min each. With the exception for V5-HRP in Western blot assays, HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG or anti-mouse IgG was used as secondary antibody (Invitrogen) followed by a 45 minutes incubation and washing as 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.
