Reverse transcription reactions containing 50mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 50mM KCl, 6mM MgCl2, 5mM β-me, 200nM vRNA-tRNA complex, and 3μM RT were pre-incubated at 37°C for 4 minutes. vRNA-tRNA complexes consisted of the vRNA construct for smFRET heat annealed to synthetic tRNALys3 with a 5’ Cyanine3 label (TriLink). Reactions were initiated by addition of a dNTP mixture to a final concentration of 100μM per nucleotide. Reactions for the ladder lanes were identical except for the addition of 25μM ddNTP for one nucleotide species in each corresponding sequencing lane. Reactions were quenched at time points with 1:1 reaction:buffer volume of loading buffer containing 50mmM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 50mM EDTA, and 90% formamide.
Reactions were then heated for 5 min at 95 °C, loaded onto an 8.5% polyacrylamide gel which had been pre-run at 100W for 2 hours. The gel was run at 120W for 3 hours before imaging with a Typhoon Trio scanner (Amersham Biosciences).

Two-dimensional DIGE was performed at Applied Biomics (Hayward, CA, USA) following typical methods [19 ,20 (link)]. Briefly, cell lysates, were denatured by equal volume addition of lysis buffer containing 7M urea, 2M thio urea, 4% 3-((3-cholamidopropyl)dimethyl ammonio)-1-propanesulfonate(CHAPS) followed by addition of 30 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.8, at a 5:1 volume ratio lysis buffer: plasma. Lysate samples were normalized using total protein as determined by Lowry protein estimation method. Next, samples were labeled with CyDye DIGE fluors developed for fluorescence 2D-DIGE technology (Cy3 and Cy5, GE Healthcare, CT, USA) and incubated in dark on ice, 30 min. The labeled samples were then subjected to isoelectric focusing (IEF) on a 13-cm precast non-linear immobilized pH gradient strip (pH 3-10, Amersham Biosciences, Buckinghamshire, UK) using an Amersham Pharmacia IPGPHOR unit with a power supply (EPS3501XL) in gradient mode. Next, the samples were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDSPAGE) in the second dimension based on size. The gels were scanned using Typhoon Trioscanner (Amersham Biosciences) and fluorescent dye signals corresponding to individual samples converted to black and white images for analysis using Image Quant and DeCyder software (Amersham Biosciences).

B. subtilis was grown as described above. For each sample 400 µl cells were pelleted (5,000xg, 1 min, 37°C) and resuspended in 20 µl MSMNB (500 mM sucrose, 20 mM MgCl2, 20 mM malic acid, 13 g l-1 nutrient broth, pH 7.5) and 15 nm SNAP-CellCellCell TMR-Star (NEB) final concentration was added.

ProteinaseK was added to a final concentration of 0.1 mg ml-1 from a 1 mg ml-1 stock solved in MSMNB. ProteinaseK digestion was stopped by addition of 10 mM phenylmethanesulfonylfluoride (PMSF) final concentration. Samples were mixed with 10 µl 4x SDS-PAGE loading dye, cooked for 20 minutes at 95°C and analysed via SDS-PAGE. In gel-fluorescence was analysed using a Typhoon Trio scanner (Amersham Biosciences) using a 532 nm laser and a 580 nm emission filter. Quantification of fluorescence was performed using ImageJ [33 (link)].

Quantitative Proteomic Analysis of Differential Protein Abundance

Gels were run in triplicate, scanned, and analyzed as described previously [44 (link)]. To summarize, scanning was performed using a Typhoon Trioscanner (Amersham BioSciences) following the manufacturer’s protocol. Scanned images were processed using Image Quant software (Amersham BioSciences, v.5.0). Protein abundance was assessed by differential in-gel analysis (DIA). The quantitative analysis of protein spots was performed using DeCyder software (Amersham Biosciences, v.6.5). Quantitative comparisons were calculated between samples run at the same time and pair-wise volume ratios were calculated for each protein spot and used to determine relative fold changes ratios. Fold changes were log2 transformed. Student’s t-test was performed using the log2 normalized average spot volume ratios for all spots detected from the three replicate experiments. Only statistically significant results (P<0.05), and differentially abundant proteins with a ratio > 2-fold (log2 of 1) difference in one condition (increase or decrease in abundance), were chosen for mass spectrometry.

Cells were cultivated as described above. In the early and late exponential growth phase (OD600 ~0.08 and ~0.7, respectively), cells were harvested by centrifugation (7,000 × g, 15 min, 4°C). The pellet was resuspended in TG buffer (50 mM Tris/HCl pH 8.0, 10% (v/v) glycerol) supplemented with lysozyme, DNase and PMSF (0.5 mM) and thereby concentrated 200 fold. After incubation at 37°C for 15 min, membranes were collected by ultracentrifugation (100,000 × g, 15 min, 4°C). The pellet was resuspended in TG buffer and diluted when indicated. Samples were mixed with buffer [200 mM Tris/HCl (pH 8.8), 20% (v/v) glycerol, 5 mM EDTA (pH 8.0), 0.02% (w/v) bromphenol blue (aliquots of 700 μl)], and before use 200 μl 20% (w/v) SDS and 100 μl 0.5 M DTT (Drew et al., 2006 (link)) was added. SDS-PAGE was performed according to Laemmli (Laemmli, 1970 (link)) and run at 150 V for 2 h in the dark to avoid bleaching of the fluorophore. In gel-fluorescence was analyzed using the Typhoon Trio scanner (Amersham Biosciences) with 488 nm laser and 526 nm emission filter. Quantification of fluorescence was performed using ImageQuant (GE Healthcare, München, Germany).

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.
