13c6 15n4 l arginine
[13C6,15N4]-L-arginine is a stable isotope-labeled amino acid product manufactured by Merck Group. It is composed of L-arginine molecules with six carbon atoms and four nitrogen atoms replaced with their respective heavy isotopes, 13C and 15N. This product is intended for use in various research applications, such as metabolic studies and labeling experiments, where the tracing of arginine-derived compounds is of interest.

Stable Isotope Labeling by Amino Acids in Cell Culture (SILAC):
Human hepatic HuH7 cells (HuH-7), human embryonic kidney 293 cells (HEK-293) and human colorectal cancer 116 cells (HCT-116) were individually grown at 37° C. in a 5% CO2 humidified incubator. SILAC medium was prepared as follows: DMEM lacking lysine, arginine and methionine was custom prepared by AthenaES (Baltimore, Md., USA) and supplemented with 30 mg/L methionine (Sigma Aldrich; Oakville, ON, CAN), 10% (v/v) dialyzed FBS (GIBCO-Invitrogen; Burlington, ON, CAN), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Gibco-Invitrogen), 28 μg/mL gentamicin (Gibco-Invitrogen), and [13C6,15N2]-L-lysine, [13C6,15N4]-L-arginine (heavy form of amino acids; Heavy Media) from Sigma Aldrich (Oakville, ON, CAN) at final concentrations of 42 mg/L and 146 mg/L for arginine and lysine respectively. For HCT-116, the concentration of arginine was increased to 84 mg/L. Cells were grown for at least 10 doublings in SILAC media to allow for complete incorporation of the isotopically labeled amino acids into the cells.

Quantitative Comparative Cell Synchronization
Full incorporation of the labeled amino acids was obtained by diluting a preculture grown overnight in SILAC medium into fresh SILAC medium and incubating it at 30°C for 7.5 h (
An overnight culture of each strain was diluted into 400 ml fresh medium and grown overnight at 30°C to the desired OD600nm for cell synchronization. The synchrony of the cultures was monitored by microscopy and the cells were harvested by centrifugation and immediately used for affinity purification.
Cell synchronization was performed either with alpha-factor (Sigma) (3.7 μM final concentration pre-dissolved in 0.1 M HCl; added to the cell culture at an OD600nm of 1 and incubated at 30°C for 2:40 h) or hydroxyurea (Sigma) (0.2 M final concentration; added to the cell culture at an OD600nm of 1 and incubated at 30°C for 3:30 h). Temperature-sensitive strains were arrested by incubation at 37°C for 3:25 h after the OD600nm reached 0.6.

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.
