Synthesis of Biotinylated Liposome SUVs

SUVs were prepared using a 10 mL LIPEX Extruder (Transferra Nanosciences, Inc.). Lipids were mixed in ~500 μL chloroform with 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DOPC) (850375C, Avanti Polar Lipids) as the base lipid. Biotinylated lipids were incorporated at 0.05–0.2 mol% 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-(biotinyl) (Biotinyl-Cap PE) (870282C, Avanti Polar Lipids). To directly tag the membrane in control experiments, N-(fluorescein-5-thiocarbamoyl)-1,2-dihexadecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine, triethylammonium salt (FITC DHPE) (23304, AAT Bioquest) was incorporated at 0.1 mol%. Lipids were dried first by rotary evaporation and second by ultrahigh purity N2. Lipid cakes were resuspended and sonicated in 3 mL nanopure water (final concentration, 2 mg mL−1) prior to performing three freeze-thaw cycles. SUVs in nanopure water were then extruded 10× through a 0.08 μm polycarbonate filter (WHA110604, Whatman) supported by a drain disc (WHA230600, Whatman). SUVs were used within ~2 weeks.

Preparation of Fluorescent SUV Liposomes

Small unilamellar vesicles (SUV) were prepared by extrusion. 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DOPC) (850375C, Avanti Polar Lipids) and Texas Red 1,2Dihexadecanoyl-sn-Glycero-3-Phosphoethanolamine, Triethylammonium Salt (TR DHPE) were mixed in ~100 μL chloroform at 100 mol % DOPC or 99.5 mol% DOPC and 0.5 mol % TR DHPE. Chloroform was evaporated by rotary evaporation, and lipid cakes were dried under vacuum and under ultra-high purity nitrogen. Lipids were resuspended in water at 2 mg/mL and sonicated for 30 s prior to 3 freeze-thaw cycles. SUVs were extruded 10x in a 10 mL LIPEX Extruder (Transferra Nanosciences, Inc.) fit with a 0.08 μm polycarbonate filter (WHA110604, Whatman) and a drain disc (WHA230600, Whatman). The final concentration of TR in liposomes was measured on a Thermo Scientific Nanodrop 2000c spectrophotometer.

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.
