Detecting PmMYB7 Autoactivation Using Yeast Two-Hybrid

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To detect autoactivation of the PmMYB7 gene, we used the pGBKT7 vector to construct a recombinant plasmid as a bait vector. The pGBKT7 vector was digested at the EcoRI and XbaI sites using QuickCut enzymes (Takara). The PmMYB7 coding sequence was inserted into the pGBKT7 vector. Approximately 100 ng of pGBKT7-PmMYB7 bait vector and 100 ng of pGADT7 prey vector plasmids were cotransformed into S. cerevisiae AH109 cells to assess autoactivation and toxicity. pGBKT7-p53 and pGADT7-largeT were cotransformed as positive controls, and pGBKT7-laminC and pGADT7-largeT were cotransformed as negative controls. The transformed competent cells were cultured on SD/-Leu/-Trp (DDO) and SD/-Trp/-Leu/-His/-Ade (QDO) plates at 30 °C for 3–5 days. Three positive clones were randomly selected for HIS3 and ADE2 detection. The diameters and colors of the colonies were observed and recorded.

Subcellular Localization of PmMYB7 Gene

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To further study the PmMYB7 gene, we used the bioinformatics analysis tool Cell-PLoc 2.0 (http://www.csbio.sjtu.edu.cn/bioinf/Cell-PLoc-2/, accessed on 30 November 2021) to predict the subcellular localization [59 (link)]. To verify the prediction, we used the pJIT166 vector to construct a recombinant plasmid containing a green fluorescent protein (GFP) marker and the PmMYB7 protein. The pJIT166 vector was digested at the HindIII and XbaI sites using QuickCut enzymes (Takara). Then, the PmMYB7 coding sequence (without stop codon) was inserted into the pJIT166 vector. The 2x35S::PmMYB7-GFP fusion vector was transformed into the E. coli strain TOP10 (Weidi). Positive E. coli cells were cultured, and high-quality plasmids were extracted. The plasmids were transformed into leaf protoplasts of A. thaliana by the PEG-mediated method [60 (link)]. After 14 h, we observed and obtained images of the GFP fluorescence signal by using a laser scanning confocal microscope (LSM710, Zeiss, Jena, Germany).

Construction of pGADT7-based cDNA Library

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The cDNAs of P. massoniana were ligated to the pGADT7 vector to construct recombinant vectors. pGADT7 was digested at the NdeI and XhoI sites using QuickCut enzymes (Takara). The double-stranded cDNAs from the previous step were ligated with the linearized pGADT7 by homologous recombination. The ligation system contained 7 µL of cDNA, 3 µL of enzymatically linearized library vector DNA, 5 µL of All-Direct recombination enzyme (Biogene, Shanghai, China) and 5 µL of ddH2O. These components were incubated at 50 °C for 1 h. The recombination reaction was inactivated by adding 2 µL of proteinase K (Sigma–Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), followed by the addition of 1 µL of 20 µg/µL glycogen (Sigma–Aldrich), 50 µL of 7.5 M NH4Ac and 375 µL of anhydrous ethanol. The components were mixed, and the reaction mixture was stored at −80 °C for at least 1 h. The recombination product was collected and suspended in 10 µL of DEPC ddH2O on ice.

Overexpression of LtuBOP2 in Arabidopsis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To overexpress the LtuBOP2 gene in A. thaliana, the LtuBOP2 coding regions were amplified and inserted at the XbaI and BamHI sites of the transformed pBI121 vector downstream of the 35S (Cauliflower mosaic virus) promoter using QuickCut enzymes (Takara, Dalian, China); further, the plasmid 35S::pBI121-LtuBOP2 was generated using the One Step Cloning Kit (ClonExpress® Ultra Vazyme Biotech Co. Ltd., Nanjing, China). We further imported the recombinant plasmids into Agrobacterium tumefaciens (GV3101) and transformed it into A. thaliana, applying the floral dipping approach [56 (link)]. Kanamycin-resistant primary transformants were gained on 1/2 MS agar plates. Taking the genomic DNA of transgenic leaves in A. thaliana as templates, a PCR reaction was accomplished to identify T1 transgenic plants by exploiting specific primers. We acquired stable genetic transgenic plants after the continuous screening of three generations.

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.
