Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A cDNA construct with a triple FLAG tag fused to the N‐terminus of CLN7 was generated by amplifying human MFSD8 cDNA (NM_152778, RZPD clone IRATp970E0532D6; imaGenes, Berlin, Germany) using primers 3xFLAG pCMV10‐CLN7 F/R and cloning this into the p3xFLAG‐CMV10 vector (Sigma‐Aldrich, St. Louis, Missouri). The cDNA coding for human mutant CLN7 Ile67Glufs*3 was purchased (Source BioScience, Nottingham, UK) and amplified. Primers can be found in Table S6. PCR products were separated and purified from agarose gels, cleaved with restriction enzymes and cloned into the p3xFLAG‐CMV10 expression vector (Sigma‐Aldrich, St. Louis, Missouri) generating the mutant 3xFLAG p.Ile67Glufs*3.

All the sequences of primers for the construction of plasmids used in this study are summarized in the Supplementary Table 1. The MPP1-truncated mutants (MPP1-Mut1-5) were subcloned into the pGEX-6p1 vector and expressed as soluble GST tagged proteins in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) or LEMO (DE) cells. Full length MPP1-GST and its truncated mutants were isolated in native conditions based on HBS buffers (10 mM HEPES, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7,4) and immobilized on glutathione-Sepharose 4B beads (GE Healthcare). The GST tag was cleaved off on the column with the PreScission protease (Sigma) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Purified recombinant proteins were validated by SDS-PAGE and Coomassie Blue staining (see Fig. S2). His-tagged flotillin 1 and 2 were purified under denaturation conditions as described previously23 (link). After purification recombinant proteins were dialyzed into HBS-T (HBS-0.05% Tween-20) buffer and subsequently used for SPR binding study. For mammalian cell experiments the MPP1-Mut4-FLAG construct was additionally cloned into the p3XFLAG-CMV-10 vector (Sigma, St. Louis, MO).

The generation of the 4ACAT stabilized β-catenin construct, where the residues S33, S37, T41 and S45 were mutated to Alanine and the MUC4 promoter construct has been described in a previous publication [35 (link)]. For the Hath1 overexpression construct, the Hath1 cDNA was amplified from the HCT116 cell line using the following primers: HindIII-Hath1-FP: 5′-CATAAATAAGCTTTC CCGCCTGCTGCATGCAGAAG-3′and BamHI-Hath1- RP:5′-CTACAATGGATCCCTAACTTGCCTCATCCG AGTCAC-3′. The amplified cDNA was then ligated into the PCR2.1 vector using TOPO-TA cloning kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific #K451020). Following a restriction digestion with HindIII and BamH1, the released insert cloned into the HindIII and BamHI (New England Biolabs, #R0104Sand #R0136S) digested p3XFLAG- CMV-10 vector (Sigma-Aldrich, # E7658) and sequenced at the UNMC sequencing core facility.

The 3xFlag-hGABARAPL1 plasmid was generated by subcloning the PCR-amplified human GABARAPL1 cDNA into a p3xFLAG-CMV 10 vector (Sigma). HA-MAP1LC3A, HA-MAP1LC3B, HA-MAP1LC3C, HA-GABARAPL1, HA-GABARAP, HA-GABARAPL2 and Myc-hULK1 were purchased from Addgene (plasmid #137756, #137757, #137758, #137759, #137760, #137761, and #31961, respectively)51 (link), 52 (link).

Total cellular RNAs were isolated from Huh7 cells by using RiboEx (GeneAll), and full-length SLC3A2 was amplified by a primer set (sense, 5′-AAG CGG CCG CTA TGG AGC TAC AGC CT-3′; antisense, 5′-AAG GTA CCT CAG GCC GCG TAG GGG AA-3′) from cDNA synthesized by using a cDNA synthesis kit (Toyobo) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. PCR products were inserted into the BamH1 and Xba1 sites of plasmid pEF-V5-His (Invitrogen) to generate V5-tagged SLC3A2, and the Not1 and Kpn1 sites of the p3xFlag-CMV10 vector (Sigma-Aldrich) to generate Flag-tagged SLC3A2 expression plasmid. Myc-tagged HCV core, NS3, NS4B, NS5A, and NS5B, V5-tagged HCV E2, E1E2, NS3/4A plasmids were described previously12 (link),39 (link).

Overexpression of CMTr1 and DHX15

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The full-length cDNAs of CMTr1 and DHX15 were obtained from Source BioScience and subcloned into p3xFLAG-CMV®-10 vector (Sigma), introducing an N-terminal FLAG-tag, optionally cleavable with PreScission protease, for overexpression in HEK293 cells [10 (link)]. For overexpression in bacteria, DHX15 was cloned into the pET28 vector, introducing a C-terminal His-tag. Variants of CMTr1 were constructed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with p3xFLAG-CMV10_CMTr1 as a template. DNA construct for expression of the deletion variant that contained the N-terminal part of CMTr1, with the NLS and G-patch domain, was prepared by inserting a stop codon after the triplet coding for Arg133 (forward primer (fv) 5′-TGACAGGAGCTGAACGTGGACTG-3′, reverse primer (rv) 5′-TCACCGGAGTGTCAGACCCAAG-3′). The variant without the G-patch domain was prepared by removing a region that encodes residues 1–135 (fv 5′-GACCAGGAGCTGAACGTGG-3′, rv 5′-GGCGGCCGCAAGCTTGTC-3′).

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.
