CRISPR-Mediated Gene Editing in Mammalian Cells

The CHOPCHOP website (https://chopchop.rc.fas.harvard.edu/) was utilized to design a high-performance sgRNA targeting the human AAVS1 locus. Based on our prior experience, we preferentially chose a sgRNA with a G at the 5′ end which initiates U6-promoter-mediated transcription [20 (link)]. The sgRNA used in this study was sgAAVS1b.
Both the Cas9 and sgRNA plasmids were constructed with a NEBuilder HiFi DNA Assembly Kit (New England Biolabs). Multiple colonies were chosen for Sanger sequencing (MCLAB) to identify the correct clones using the primers U6-F, EF1-F, and wpre-R. Correct clones were grown in CircleGrow Media (MP Biomedicals) and DNA plasmids were purified using Endo-Free Plasmid Maxi Kits (QiaGen).
The TPO-E2A-GFP and GFP donor plasmids used in this study were generated with a CloneJET PCR Cloning Kit (Thermo Scientific). Multiple colonies were chosen for Sanger sequencing (MCLAB) to identify the correct clones using the primers pJET1.2-F and pJET1.2-R. Correct clones were cultured, and DNA plasmids were purified, as described previously [20 (link)] (See also Additional file 1: Additional Information for details). All of the primer sequences are listed in Additional file 1: Table S1.

Expression of his-tagged wild-type FECH, FECH variants, and non-tagged PGRMC1 in E. coli was carried out by growth in Circlegrow media (MP Biomedicals, Santa Ana, CA) for 18–20 hours at 30°C. Cells were harvested by centrifugation at 5,000 x g for 10 min, resuspended in solubilization buffer (50 mM Tris-MOPS, pH 8.0, 100 mM KCl, 1% sodium cholate) and sonicated three times on ice for 30 seconds. The resulting lysate was then centrifuged at 100,000xg for 20 minutes and the supernatant reserved. Supernatant from non-tagged PGRMC1 was then mixed with the his-tagged wild-type and variant FECH supernatant and loaded onto HisPur Cobalt Resin (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The column was then washed with wash buffer (50 mM Tris-MOPS pH 8.1, 100 mM KCl, 1% sodium cholate, 15 mM imidazole) and subsequently eluted using elution buffer (50 mM Tris-MOPS pH 8.1, 100 mM KCl, 1% sodium cholate, 250 mM imidazole). Presence of PGRMC1 and relative amounts of PGRMC1 and FECH, both wild-type and variants, were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and immunoblots.

Protein Expression and Labeling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Synthetic oligonucleotides encoding monomer genes of V7, V3G3A3, and AP1-V5 were obtained from Macrogen Inc. Seoul. All the restriction enzymes were purchased from New England Biolab. The competent BL21 (DE3) E. coli cells and DH5α were procured from Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA. Circle grow media (MP Biomedicals, CA, USA), 100 μg mL-1 of ampicillin (AMRESCO, LLC, OH, USA) and 1 mM IPTG (Carbosynth Limited, Berkshire, UK) were used for protein expression. Sodium chloride and copper chloride were acquired from Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA. Flamma 675 Vinylsulfone was obtained from BioActs, Incheon, Korea. Sulfo-SMCC (succinimide 4-[N-maleimidomethyl] cyclohexane carboxylate) and other chemicals are acquired from Sigma Aldrich. 4T1 murine breast cancer cells and MDA MB231 human breast cancer cells were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC). 4T1 cells were grown in RPMI-1640 (Hyclone), and MDA MB231 cells were grown in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) containing 10 % fetal bovine serum (Sigma Aldrich), 100 U/mL of penicillin, and 100 μg/mL of streptomycin (Hyclone). Cells were maintained at 37 °C containing 5% CO2.

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.
