HeLa and HEK-293 T cells were purchased from ATCC and cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS and 5% Penicillin-Streptomycin, under conventional conditions. The day before transfection, cells were seeded in 12-well plates. Cells were transfected using Lipofectamine LTX (Invitrogen) per manufacturer’s directions. Twenty-four hours after transfection, cells were treated as indicated in figure legends with cycloheximide (100 μg/ml; A. G. Scientific), and/or MG132 (20 μM; A. G. Scientific) or chloroquine (100 μM, A. G. Scientific). Cells were harvested in hot SDS lysis buffer for western blotting (see below).

Characterization of Ataxin-3 and eGFP in HEK-293T Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Ataxin-3 and eGFP variants were synthesized by the company Genscript (genscript.com) and subcloned into HA-tagged, pCDNA3.1(+1) for ataxin-3 or pCDNA3.1+N-eGFP for eGFP. The identity and integrity of all plasmids used in this work were confirmed through site-restricted digests as well as two rounds of sequencing by the vendor and by our group. HEK-293T cells were purchased from ATCC, confirmed for lack of mycoplasma contamination, and cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS and 5% penicillin-streptomycin, under conventional conditions at 37°C and 5% CO2. The day before transfection, cells were trypsinized, resuspended, and seeded on 12-well or 24-well plates. Cells were then transfected with the plasmids indicated in figures using Lipofectamine LTX (Thermo Fisher) following the manufacturer’s protocols. The same total amount of plasmid was transfected into each well for each experimental group, helping to ensure consistent transfection efficiency. Twenty-four hours after transfection, cells were treated with MG132, chloroquine, or cycloheximide (each purchased from A. G. Scientific) as indicated in figures and legends.

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.
