GTPase Activity Assay for FgRab1 and FgGyp1

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The sequences of FgRab1 cDNA, FgGyp1 cDNA, TBC domain and R357K point mutant of FgGyp1 were cloned into the MBP (Maltose-binding protein) vector pMAL-c2X, using their respective primers listed in Supplementary Table 2, and expressed. The protein products were isolated and purified for GAP activity assay using a GTPase assay kit (Sigma-Aldrich, Catalog Number MAK113) according to the manufacturer’s protocols. GTP hydrolysis was assayed based on previous reports (Xiong et al., 2012 (link); Zheng et al., 2020 (link)). Briefly, the recombinant proteins MBP–FgGyp1, MBP–FgGyp1TBC (TBC), MBP–FgGyp1R357K (R357), and MBP–FgRab1 were expressed in BL21 Escherichia coli strain and isolated by Amylose resin (Sangon Biotech, NO.C500096) as per the instructions of the manufacturer. A colorimetry-based kit was used (Sigma-Aldrich, Catalog Number MAK113) to assay for the GTPase activity of Gyp1, and FgRab1 was incubated with FgGyp1, FgGyp1TBC (TBC), FgGyp1R357K (R357K), and MBP control, respectively, following the instructions of the manufacturer. The experiment was repeated three times.

pHis-FgBub2 and pGST-FgTem1 vectors were constructed by amplifying FgBUB2 or FgTEM1 coding sequence from the cDNA of PH-1 using the primer pairs listed in S3 Table, then cloned into the pET32a (His) or pGEX-4T (GST) vector, respectively. His-FgBub2, GST-FgTem1 and His proteins were expressed in BL21 Escherichia coli strain and purified, respectively. Next, these proteins were used for GAP activity assay using a GTPase assay kit (Sigma-Aldrich, Catalog Number MAK113) according to the manufacturer’s protocols.

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.
