The experiments were performed on an XL-A analytical ultracentrifuge using an An-60 Ti rotor (Beckman Coulter)34 (link)35 (link)36 (link). The sedimentation-velocity experiments were performed using a double-sector epon charcoal-filled centerpiece at 20 °C with a rotor speed of 42,000 rpm. Protein solutions of S-crystallin and its mutants (0.025–1.0 mg/ml) and a reference buffer (50 mM phosphate, pH 6.5) were loaded into the centerpiece. The absorbance at 230 or 280 nm was monitored in continuous mode with a time interval of 300 s and a step size of 0.003 cm. Multiple scans at different time intervals were then fitted to a continuous c(M) distribution model using SEDFIT37 (link)38 (link).

Sedimentation Velocity Analysis of RNA Compaction

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Sedimentation velocity analytical ultracentrifugation (SV-AUC) experiments were performed using a Beckman XL-1 centrifuge with An-60 Ti rotor (Beckman Coulter). Prior to centrifugation, RNA was supplemented with 25 mM K-HEPES pH 7.0, 150 mM KCl, 0.1 mM Na-EDTA, and appropriate MgCl2 concentrations as indicated in the results section, and incubated for 45 minutes at 37°C. RNA concentrations were adjusted to obtain an initial absorption value of 0.4 at 260 nm on the instrument. All experiments were performed at 20 °C at 25,000 rpm, and independently repeated once. Data were analyzed using the continuous c(s) distribution model as implemented in Sedfit43 (link),44 (link). Hydrodynamic radii (Rh) were calculated assuming a partial specific volume of 0.53 cm3/g and a hydration of 0.59 g/g in Sedfit36 (link). Hill plots were drawn for each set of data in Prism (GraphPad).
It’s important to note that the homogeneity of RNA samples is not evaluated by the shape of the sedimentation curve itself, but by mathematically fitting the calculated molecule radii to the Hill equation in order to obtain a value of K1/2 Mg. At the Mg2+ concentration indicated by a particular K1/2 Mg value, 50% of the RNA molecules are compacted. Therefore, we chose 15 mM Mg2+ (more than 3 times of the K1/2 Mg value) to obtain a completely compact and monodisperse form of RepA.

Molecular mass of the Rad50HCC182 was analyzed with an Optima XL-A analytical ultracentrifuge (Beckman). Sedimentation equilibrium data were evaluated using a nonlinear least-squares curve-fitting algorithm (XL-A data analysis software). Samples (40 µM) were analyzed in a buffer B (25 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 5 mM β-mercaptoethanol) for Rad50HCC182, SMC hinge, Pfhook, ΔCC, and ΔCC-48 or buffer C (buffer B with 0.5 mM EDTA) for Zn2+-free Rad50HCC182. To prepare Zn2+ free Rad50HCC182, sample was dialyzed in a buffer C for at least 24 hrs. Data were collected at 11,000, 14,000, 25,000, 35,000, and 37,000 rpm to optimize the detection of dimeric and monomeric Rad50HCC182 mutants and 15°C using an An60Ti rotor (Beckman) and by measuring the absorbance at 280 nm. The partial specific volume of Rad50HCC182 was estimated to be 0.731 cm3/g from the protein sequence using the SEDNTERP program, and a rho value of 1.005 was used for the molecular mass calculation. The partial specific volume of SMC hinge, Pfhook, ΔCC, and ΔCC-48 were estimated to be 0.738, 0.734, 0.722, and 0.721 cm3/g, respectively.

A Beckman Optima XL-I analytical ultracentrifuge, absorption optics, an An-60 Ti rotor and standard double-sector centerpiece cells were used. Equilibrium measurements for the various constructs were made at 20 °C using the centrifuge speeds shown in Table 1. Concentration profiles were recorded every 4 h for 16 h, and then baselines were established by overspeeding at 45 000 rpm for 3 h. Data (the average of 8–10 scans collected using a radial step size of 0.001 cm) were analyzed using the standard Optima XL-I data analysis software. Sedimentation velocity experiments were performed at 40 000 rpm with scans recorded every 6 min for 3 h. Protein partial specific volumes (ν-bar), calculated from the amino acid compositions, and solvent densities were estimated using the program SEDNTERP (http://www.rasmb.bbri.org/).

For each run, 25 µM OPA1-MGD was used in buffer containing 25 mM Hepes (pH 7.4), 250 mM KCl, and 4 mM MgCl2. Sedimentation velocity experiments were performed at 20°C in a ProteomeLab XL-1 Protein Characterization System (Beckman Coulter), except for 217-MGD at 10°C. All interference data were collected at 42,000 rpm using an An-60 Ti rotor (Beckman Coulter). The AUC data were processed according to a concentration (sedimentation coefficient) distribution model. For sedimentation equilibrium experiments, OPA1-MGD was prepared at three different concentrations (10, 15, and 20 µM). Interference data were collected at three different speeds (12,000, 19,000, and 24,000 rpm) in an An-60 Ti rotor at 10°C and analyzed by SEDPHAT using the monomer–dimer association model.

Analytical Ultracentrifugation of Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The total loading sample average sedimentation coefficients of both brand and generic SFG products were measured by analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC). In order to determine lot to lot variation, three different lots of both brand SFG and generic SFG were used during this experiment. SFG samples were diluted to a 2.2 mM Fe total iron concentration in 0.9% NaCl solution prior to AUC measurement. AUC was performed using a Beckman Optima XL-A, An-60 Ti rotor, scanning absorbance optics, with 12 mm path length double sector graphite centerpieces and quartz lenses. All measurements were made at 470 nm at a speed of 42,000 rpm, 20 °C. Data collected over 100 scans were used as a representation of the whole run (radial step size of 0.003 cm). The total loading sample sedimentation coefficients of both brand and generic SFG samples for each concentration were calculated by integrating 100% of the loading concentration signal using an ls-g*(s) SEDFIT model where both RI noise and time-independent noise were accounted for. To ensure that the total loading sample sedimentation coefficients were not concentration-dependent, SFG samples were also diluted to four other total iron concentrations (0.9, 1.5, 1.8, and 2.6 mM Fe) in 0.9% NaCl solution and analyzed via AUC.

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.
