Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mrk61, a neo-epitope specific anti-sAPPβ rabbit monoclonal antibody (courtesy of MSD Research Laboratories), was generated and its specificity was previously characterized16 (link),17 (link). The purified antibody was conjugated with CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B beads (GE Healthcare) according to the manufacturer’s protocol, reconstituted into a 50% slurry of PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide and stored at 4 °C.
Purified W0-2 (courtesy of MSD Research Laboratories) was added to activated CNBr-Sepharose (1% w/w) pre-equilibrated in cold coupling buffer (0.1 M bicarbonate pH 7.6, 0.5 M NaCl) and incubated for 2 h with gentle mixing. Upon washing with coupling buffer, unoccupied binding sites were blocked for 2 h with 1 M ethanolamine, pH 8.0. Beads were washed with three cycles of 90 mL cold 0.1 M acetate pH 4.0 and 90 mL cold 0.1 M Tris pH 8.0 to remove uncoupled protein. The beads were further washed and stored (4 °C) in PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide.

CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B beads (GE Healthcare) were coupled with esculetin as described by Lee et al [24 (link)]. Coupled and uncoupled beads were separately incubated overnight with total cellular protein extract in reaction buffer [50 mM Tris (pH7.5), 5 mM EDTA, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM DTT, 0.01 % Tergitol, 0.2 % BSA, 0.2 mM PMSF and 1X protease inhibitor cocktail]. Beads were washed thrice with reaction buffer followed by elution of retained protein in laemmli buffer with β mercaptoethanol. The protein was then fractionated on 10 % SDS-PAGE and checked for presence of KEAP1 by western blotting. Further, to assert the specificity of binding, competition assay was carried out by pre-incubating total cellular protein with variable concentrations of esculetin and subsequently using this protein mixture for pull down assay as described above.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B beads (GE Healthcare) coupled to the rho1D4 monoclonal antibody (Cell Essentials, Boston, MA) were used to purify CXCR4 and CXCR4QTY29 as previously described28 (link). Briefly, solubilized protein was captured on the beads overnight at 4 °C. The beads were washed with wash buffer (PBS + 0.01% or 0.2% FC14) until all impurities had been removed. The receptor was eluted from the beads with elution buffer (PBS + 0.01% or 0.2%FC14 + 800 µM elution peptide). The eluted protein was concentrated using 50 kDa MWCO (0.2% detergent samples), 30 kDa MWCO (0.2% or 0.01% detergent samples), or 10 kDa MWCO (0.01% detergent samples) filter columns. To remove excess elution peptide, the samples were washed with ~ 67 × volumes of wash buffer in the centrifugation filter columns at 4 ºC, 1000–1200 g, for intervals of 1–2 min. The centrifugation filter columns were from Millipore (Burlington, MA), and the elution peptide Ac-TETSQVAPA-CONH2 was synthesized by CPC Scientific, Inc (Sunnyvale, CA).

Affinity purified F991 was coupled to CNBr-activated sepharose 4B beads (17-0430-01, GE) for preparation of the affinity column. Purified F991 or control peptide (5 mg) was diluted in 6 ml coupling buffer (0.1 M NaHCO3, 0.5 M NaCl, pH 8.3). Sepharose beads were then introduced to 1 mM HCl for 30 min and washed with coupling buffer.

A chemically generated peptide consisting of nine amino acids (FTMEKGNRF) referred to the intracellular loop region of human EMP1 was immobilized onto CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B beads (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ, USA). The beads coated with the peptide or uncoated were resuspended in LNCaP cell lysates for 16 h at 4 °C. Subsequently, proteins bound to the beads were subjected to sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), followed by Coomassie Brilliant Blue staining for protein visualization. Following the excision of protein bands from the gel, they were destained and the proteins were digested by sequence-grade modified trypsin (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). The cleaved peptides were purified and analyzed by tandem mass spectrometry (Finigan LCQ Advantage MAX and Xcalibur Bioworks v.3.2; Thermo Electron, Waltham, MA, USA) to identify the protein sequences. Full-length human copine-III cDNA was subcloned into the pGEX-6P1 vector (GE Healthcare), and GST-copine-III was expressed in E. coli transformed with the vector. After sonicating the cells, GST-copine-III was purified from the cell lysates using glutathione-Sepharose 4B beads (GE Healthcare) as described previously [47 (link)].

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.
