Recombinant SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The constructs for RBDWT and mutants E484K, L452R/E484Q, and N440K were all designed as single genes containing each protein of interest fused to an N‐terminal µ‐phosphatase signal peptide and a C‐terminal hexahistidine tag. An Avitag™ BAP sequence followed by an EPEA C‐tag replaced the 6xHis tag in the ACE2‐expressing construct. Gene synthesis was performed by Twist Biosciences, which, using the NotI/XbaI restriction sites, also inserted the sequences into its standard vector pTwist‐CMV‐BetaGlobin‐WPRE‐Neo.

Antibody Plasmid Construction and Purification

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The R175H antibody plasmids encoding the heavy-chain and light-chain15 (link) were synthesized, and the antibody was purified by Syd Labs, Inc. The single-chain variable fragment (scFv) was obtained from a previous study.17 (link) Assembly of antibody heavy- and light-chain DNAs into a mammalian expression vector pTwist (Twist Bioscience, South San Francisco, CA, USA) or gWIZ (Aldevron, Fargo, ND, USA) was performed to construct pR175H-mAb or pR175H/mCD3-BsAb. The plasmids were transformed into competent Escherichia coli cells and propagated in Luria–Bertani (LB) broth supplemented with 100 μg/mL ampicillin (Teknova, Inc., Hollister, CA, USA) or 50 μg/mL kanamycin (Teknova, Inc.). Plasmids were purified from DH5α cells grown overnight using an endotoxin-free ZymoPURE™ II Plasmid Maxiprep Kit (Zymo Research, Irvine, CA, USA).

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.
