E. coli C-terminal His6-tagged Hfq protein was expressed from pET15b vector (Novagen) and purified as previously described (Małecka et al. 2015 (link)). Plasmids for expression of Hfq R16A, Hfq Y25D, and Hfq K56A mutants were generated from the pET15b-hfq vector using the QuikChange Site-Directed Mutagenesis Kit (Stratagene) with specific primers. After overexpression, cells were lysed by sonication. Then the lysate was applied to a HisTrap crude column (GE Healthcare) charged with NiSO4 and the sample was eluted with imidazole gradient. The preparation was treated with RNase A (30 μg/mL) and DNase I (5 U/mL) for 1 h at 37°C to remove contaminating nucleic acids. Then it was purified again on a Ni2+ affinity column. Eluted fractions were concentrated and loaded onto HiLoad 16/60 Superdex 200 size exclusion column (GE Healthcare). The sample was eluted in the storage buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 250 mM NH4Cl, 1 mM EDTA, and 10% glycerol), and the Hfq concentration was determined from absorption at 280 nm as previously described (Olejniczak 2011 (link)).

Positive clones were electroporated into the E. coli BL21DE3 (star) expression cell line. A 1-L culture was grown in the presence of 100 μg/ml kanamycin at 37°C with shaking until the A600=0.6. The culture was then switched to 23°C until the A600=0.9, whereupon protein production was induced by the addition of 1 mM IPTG (isopropyl β-D-thiogalactoside) and growth was continued overnight at 23°C with shaking. The cell pellet was recovered by centrifugation and lysed by sonication in buffer containing 50 mM Tris–HCl (pH 9), 500 mM NaCl, and 2 mM CaCl2. Cellular debris and insoluble matter were removed by centrifugation for 0.5 h at 16000 rpm in a JA25.5 rotor. The N-terminally 6× His-tagged protein was selected from other proteins by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. The RII tetra-tandemer was then buffer-exchanged into a solution of 50 mM Tris–HCl (pH 9), 200 mM NaCl and 10 mM CaCl2 using a centrifugal filter (Millipore). Concentrated protein was loaded onto a HiLoad 16/60 Superdex-200 size-exclusion column (GE Healthcare) for further purification. Fractions containing the tetra-tandemer were pooled and stored at 4°C for future use. Protein concentration was measured with a Nanodrop spectrophotometer (Thermal Fisher Scientific) and the purity was assessed by SDS/10%PAGE.

The H2A–H2B and H3.1–H4 complexes were reconstituted as follows65 (link). Lyophilized H2A and H2B were mixed at a 1:1 molar ratio and dissolved in denaturing buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 20 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, and 7 M guanidine hydrochloride). Lyophilized H3.1 and H4 were also mixed at a 1:1 molar ratio and dissolved in the same buffer. The mixtures were dialyzed against refolding buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 5 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, 1 mM EDTA, and 2 M NaCl), and the H2A–H2B and H3.1–H4 complexes were refolded. The resulting complexes were purified by chromatography on a HiLoad16/60 Superdex 200 size-exclusion column (GE Healthcare), equilibrated with refolding buffer. For nucleosome reconstitution, the histone complexes (H2A–H2B and H3.1–H4) were mixed with a purified DNA fragment (the palindromic 146 base-pair alpha-satellite DNA or the 147 base-pair MMTV-A DNA). Nucleosomes were reconstituted by the salt-dialysis method, and were separately purified by native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis using a Prep Cell apparatus (Bio-Rad)31 (link), under conditions with 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5) and 1 mM dithiothreitol.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
C-terminally His6-tagged E. coli wild type (wt) Hfq protein and its mutants were expressed from pET15b vector (Novagen) and purified as described [38] . Cells were grown to OD600~0.5, induced with 1 mM IPTG (final concentration) followed by 3-4 h at 37ºC, and collected by centrifugation. Resulting pellet was resuspended in buffer A (50 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 500 mM NH4Cl, 5% (w/v) glycerol) with protease inhibitor tablet (EDTA-free, Roche), and lysed by sonication. Resulting lysate was clarified by centrifugation and loaded onto HisTrap crude column charged with NiSO4 (GE Healthcare). Unbound proteins were washed out with buffer A supplemented with 10 mM imidazole. Proteins bound to the resin were eluted with a linear gradient of imidazole (35-600 mM) in the buffer A. To remove any residual nucleic acids, fractions containing Hfq protein were combined, concentrated, and treated with RNase A (30 µg/mL) and DNase I (5 U/mL) for 1 hour at 37°C. The solution was diluted to decrease the imidazole concentration and passed through a Ni 2+ affinity column. Fractions after elution were concentrated and applied to a HiLoad 16/60 Superdex 200 size exclusion column (GE Healthcare) equilibrated with the storage buffer (50 mM HEPES 7.5, 250 mM NH4Cl, 1 mM EDTA, and 10% glycerol). After elution, the protein was concentrated and stored in aliquots at -80ºC.
