Cultures were grown while shaking to OD600 = 2–3, and then centrifuged at 5000g for ten minutes. Plasmid was isolated from cell pellets using GeneJet Plasmid Midiprep kit (Thermo Scientific) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Isolated plasmid was eluted in 40μl elution buffer and quantitated in triplicate in three individual experiments to minimize assay variation using PicoGreen dsDNA quantification assay (ThermoFisher).

Engineered Mitochondrial Localization of PCK2

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The mitochondrial location vector pDsRED2-Mito (pDRM) was purchased from Waryong Biotechnology (Beijing, China). Homologous recombination was performed to clone PCK2 coding sequences into pDRM, according to the instructions of the one-step cloning kit ClonExpress II (Vazyme, Nanjing, China). Briefly, pDRM was linearized by restriction enzyme BamH I and Not I (NEB, Ipswich, MA, USA). PCK2 mRNA sequence was cloned using primers containing BamH I and Not I restriction sites and homologous sequences with the terminal sequences of linearized vector at the 5′-end (Suppl. Table S1). Then the linearized vector and the PCK2 coding sequences were ligated using ligase Exnase II supplied by the kit, and the ligation product was transfected into DH.5α. The monoclonal was picked, and pDRM-PCK2 vectors were purified using GeneJET Plasmid Midiprep Kit (Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA, USA) and verified by sequencing.

A knock-out vector for targeted deletion of ZtvelB (pΔztvelB) was constructed using yeast-based homologous recombination. The primers used to generate pΔztvelB are listed in Supplementary Table S2 and Supplementary Figure S1. The pΔztvelB vector consisted of a pCAMBIA0380_YA (yeast-adapted) backbone, with the Hygromycin-trpC resistance cassette from pCB1003 (Carroll et al., 1994 (link)) flanked by two 1.5 kb regions targeting the ZtvelB locus. The flanking regions and Hygromycin-trpC resistance cassette were amplified using Phusion® High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase (Thermo Fisher Scientific).
A ZymoprepTM Yeast Plasmid Miniprep II kit (Zymo Research) was used to recover plasmid DNA from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, rescued into Escherichia coli ccdB or DH5α cells and isolated using the Gene JET Plasmid Miniprep Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) or Gene JET Plasmid Midiprep Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) following the manufacturer’s instructions. Correct plasmid assembly was initially confirmed by PCR and further confirmed by sequencing, using the primers detailed in Supplementary Table S2 and Supplementary Figure S1.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To prepare plasmids for transfection, plasmids were transformed into chemically competent bacteria and isolated from cultures using the GeneJET Plasmid Midi-prep Kit (Thermofisher Scientific, K0481) or the PureLink HiPure Plasmid Maxiprep Kit (Thermofisher Scientific, K2100006). Plasmids were transiently transfected into HEK293T cells using TransIT-293 (Mirus Bio, MIR 2700) according to the manufacturer's instructions. To summarize, on day 1, HEK293T cells were plated in a 12-well plate (Fisher Scientific, #353043) at a density of 3x105/well in 1 mL of complete HEK medium to achieve approximately 60-70% confluency on Day 2. On Day 2, the transfection mixture was prepared in a total volume of 100 μL using 1 ug (X μl) of plasmid DNA (plasmid concentrations between 300ng and 1000ng/μl), diluted with optiMEM (Gibco, #31985-070) (97-X μl), and 3 μL of TransIT-293 reagent. While incubating the DNA:lipid complexes, the cells were washed using 500 μL of DPBS (Fisher Scientific, BW17-512F), incubated with 1 mL transfection medium (complete HEK medium without antibiotics), and replaced in the 5% CO2 incubator. Once the DNA:lipid complexes had incubated, the 100 μL mixture was added to the appropriate well, the plate gently shaken back and forth and then replaced in the incubator. On Day 4, cells were used in the aggregation assay.

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.
