Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To examine ubiquitination of ectopically expressed IFNAR1, 293T cells expressing ACE2/TMPRSS2 were transfected with FLAG-IFNAR1 and HA-ubiquitin for 36 h and then infected with SARS-CoV-2 for 12 h or treated with thapsigargin (2 μM) for 30 min. The cells were lysed in 1% SDS followed by quenching of SDS with a 10-fold excess of Triton X-100. Five hundred micrograms of total protein was used for immunoprecipitation with anti-FLAG M2 agarose beads (number A2220; Sigma) at 4°C for 2 h, and IFNAR1 ubiquitination was assessed by Western blotting with an anti-HA antibody (number F7425; Sigma). To assess ubiquitination of endogenous IFNAR1, ACE2/TMPRSS2-expressing 293T cells were transfected with FLAG-tagged TR-TUBE for 36 h, followed by infection with SARS-CoV-2 for 12 h and as a positive control with VSV (MOI of 0.01) for 12 h. The cells were harvested in lysis buffer containing 0.25% NP-40, and 500 μg of total protein was subjected to immunoprecipitation with anti-FLAG M2 agarose beads (Sigma) followed by detection of polyubiquitinated IFNAR1 by Western blotting with an anti-IFNAR1 antibody.

TOCARF cells were cultured to 80% confluency in four 150-mm cell culture dishes in normal medium with or without 1 ng/ml doxycycline for 48 h. After the cells were washed with phosphate buffer [PBS(−)], they were lysed in buffer A (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0; 150 mM NaCl; 0.5% IGEPAL CA-630; 1 mM Na3VO4; and 1 mM PMSF) and incubated on ice for 30 min. The cell extracts were obtained as the supernatant following centrifugation of the lysate at 4°C for 30 min at 22,180 × g. Cell extracts (15 mg) were incubated with anti-FLAG M2 agarose beads (Sigma) for 4 h at 4°C. The beads were then washed five times in buffer A and then once with buffer B (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0; 150 mM NaCl; 1 mM Na3VO4; and 1 mM PMSF). The FLAG–CARF-associated complexes were released from the anti-FLAG M2 agarose beads by adding 40 μl of 0.5 mg/ml FLAG peptide (Sigma) on ice for 30 min twice.

C. reinhardtii strains, expressing FLAG-AGO3 or FLAG-Ble, were grown to midlogarithmic phase in TAP medium, and ∼4 × 109 cells were pelleted by centrifugation and resuspended in 10 mL of lysis buffer (50 mM Tris⋅HCl, pH 7.5, 120 mM NaCl, 2 mM benzamidine, 0.2 mM PMSF, and 10% glycerol) containing 5 μL/mL plant protease inhibitor mixture (Sigma). From this step on, cells and lysates were always kept on ice. Cells were broken by 2 passages through a French press at a pressure of ∼2,000 psi. Cell lysates were then centrifuged at 16,000 × g for 30 min. CHAPS (0.1% final concentration) was added to the supernatant and an aliquot (∼10%) was saved for input control analyses of proteins and RNAs. The remaining supernatant was incubated with buffer-equilibrated anti–FLAG-M2 agarose beads (Sigma) for 2 h, and then the beads were washed 5 times with lysis buffer containing 0.1% CHAPS and 5 μL/mL plant protease inhibitor mixture. Proteins/RNAs associated with the beads were eluted by incubation with lysis buffer (without glycerol) containing 150 μg/mL 3×FLAG peptide (Sigma). RNA was purified from the eluate, precipitated with glycogen as carrier, and used for RT-PCR analyses (55 ).

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.
