Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PARylated and MARylated PARP1 proteins were prepared as described [26 (link)] in a reaction buffer containing 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 4 mM MgCl2, 50 mM NaCl, 0.2 mM DTT, 200 μM NAD+ (Trevigen) and 130 ng activated DNA (BPS Bioscience). Briefly, for the PAR hydrolysis activity assays, 70 nM PARP1 (PARP1-HSA; Trevigen) was auto-modified as described in [26 (link)]. After 20 min incubation, of PARP1 was passed three times through SpinTrap G-25 (GE Healthcare). PARylated PARP1 substrate was used in 10 μL reaction. For the MARylated PARP1, 1 μM of PARP1-E988Q was used as a substrate. Reactions were stopped by the addition of PARP inhibitor Olaparib (1 μM). The MgCl2 (Sigma) concentration was adjusted to 15 mM to allow full hydrolase activity. Automodified PARP1 was then incubated for indicated times at 30°C with hydrolytic enzymes in 10 μL reaction. Concentrations of hydrolytic enzymes used are as indicated in figures. Reactions were stopped by addition of Laemmli loading buffer, samples boiled at 90°C for 1.5 minutes and analysed by NuPAGE Novex Bis-Tris 4–12% Gel using MOPS buffer (Invitrogen). Radiolabelled experiments were visualized by autoradiography.

In vitro PARylation assays were performed as described previously (Kong et al., 2021 (link); Yao et al., 2021 (link)). Briefly, 500 ng HIS-FonPARP1 were incubated in a 50 μL PARylation buffer (50 mM Tris–HCl, 50 mM NaCl, 10 mM MgCl2, pH8.0) with 0.2 mM NAD+, 1× activated DNA (BPS Bioscience, San Diego, CA, USA), and 3 μg GST-FonKin4 at 26°C for 3 h. Subsequently, the samples were separated on 8% and 12.5% SDS-PAGE. PARylated proteins were detected via immunoblotting with anti-poly-ADPR antibody (Cat. #MABE1031, Sigma-Aldrich), anti-GST antibody (Cat. #A00865, GenScript) or anti-HIS antibody (Cat. #A00186, GenScript).
For in vitro phosphorylation-mediated self-PARylation assays, 4 μg HIS-FonPARP1 underwent prior in vitro phosphorylation by HIS-FonKin4-ST, as described above. Then, 50 μL PARylation buffer was then added, followed by incubation at 26°C for 30 min. The reaction was stopped by adding 4× SDS loading buffer, and the proteins were then separated on 8% and 12.5% SDS-PAGE. Phosphorylated proteins were detected by anti-phosphor Ser/Thr antibody. PARylated proteins detected through immunoblotting with streptavidin-HRP (Cat. #21126, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) for Biotin NAD+ or anti-HIS antibody (Cat. #A00186, GenScript).

PARP1 Hydrolysis and Automodification Assays

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PARylated and MARylated PARP1 proteins were prepared as described 26 in a reaction buffer containing 50 mm Tris/HCl (pH 8.0), 4 mm MgCl2, 50 mm NaCl, 0.2 mm DTT, 200 μm NAD+ (Trevigen) and 130 ng activated DNA (BPS Bioscience, Inc., San Diego, CA, USA). Briefly, for the PAR hydrolysis activity assays, 70 nm PARP1 (PARP1‐HSA; Trevigen) was automodified as described in 26. After 20‐min incubation, PARP1 was passed three times through SpinTrap G‐25 (GE Healthcare). PARylated PARP1 substrate was used in a 10‐μL reaction. For the MARylated PARP1, 1 μm of PARP1‐E988Q was used as a substrate. Reactions were stopped by the addition of PARP inhibitor Olaparib (1 μm). The MgCl2 (Sigma) concentration was adjusted to 15 mm to allow full hydrolase activity. Automodified PARP1 was then incubated for indicated times at 30 °C with hydrolytic enzymes in 10‐μL reaction. Concentrations of hydrolytic enzymes used are as indicated in figures. Reactions were stopped by addition of Laemmli loading buffer, samples boiled at 90 °C for 1.5 min and analysed by NuPAGE Novex Bis‐Tris 4–12% gel using MOPS buffer (Invitrogen).

Preparation and Hydrolysis of PARylated and MARylated PARP1

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated and mono(ADP-ribosylated) PARP1 proteins were prepared as described [15 (link),29 (link)] in a reaction buffer containing 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 4 mM MgCl2, 50 mM NaCl, 0.2 mM DTT, 200 mM NAD+ (Trevigen) and 130 ng activated DNA (BPS Bioscience). For the PAR hydrolysis activity assays 0.5 μM PARylated PARP1 substrate was used in 10 μL reaction. We estimate that the average number of the ADP-ribose units in chains linked to a PARP1 protein prepared this way is 40 units per protein, giving an approximate concentration of 20 µM monomeric units in the reaction. For the MARylated PARP1, 2 μM of PARP1-E988Q was used as a substrate. Reactions were stopped by the addition of PARP1 inhibitor Olaparib (1 μM). The MgCl2 (Sigma) concentration was adjusted to 15 mM to allow full Nudix hydrolase activity. Automodified PARP1 was then incubated for 3 hours at 30°C with hydrolytic enzymes in 10 μL reaction. Concentrations of hydrolytic enzymes used are as indicated in figures. Reactions were stopped by addition of Laemmli loading buffer, samples boiled at 90°C for 1.5 minutes and fractionated by NuPAGE Novex Bis-Tris 4-12% Gel using MOPS buffer (Invitrogen). PARP1-E988Q experiments were visualized by autoradiography, experiments using wild-type PARP1 were visualized by Western blot using a specific anti-PAR antibody.

In vitro PARylation assay was conducted as previously described with some modifications61 (link). Briefly, GST and GST-MIF (500 ng) bound to GSH beads were incubated with 1 U recombinant PARP1 protein (Trevigen) in the reaction buffer containing 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 20 mM NaCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 1× activated DNA (BPS Bioscience) and 500 µM NAD+ at 37 °C for 30 min. The reaction was terminated by collecting supernatant and beads separately with the addition of SDS loading buffer. PARylation of interested proteins was detected by immunoblot assay with an anti-PAR antibody.

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.
