Plasmids encoding the His-Alkbh4, His-HARE-HTH and His-RAMA domains were transformed into E. coli strain Rosetta 2 (DE3) (MilliporeSigma). Bacterial cultures were grown to an A600 of 0.4-0.5, then induced with 0.1 mM IPTG for 4 h at 30°C. Bacterial pellets were resuspended in ice-cold PBS supplemented with 100mM NaCl, 1mM Imidazole, 0.2% NP-40, complete protease inhibitor cocktail, 5 mM sodium fluoride, 1 mM sodium orthovanadate, lysozyme (0.2 mg/mL) and DNase I (10 μg/mL), then sonicated in 5-6 bursts of 15 s with 1 min cooling in between bursts. Soluble proteins (5 ml) were incubated with 250 μL Profinity Nickel-charged resin (Bio-Rad) for 1 h at 4°C with gentle rotation. Resin was washed twice in lysis buffer and eluted for 30 min in elution buffer (1XPBS, 100mM NaCl, 250mM Imidazole, 5% glycerol), then pooled and dialyzed overnight at 4°C into 1XTBS containing 5% glycerol. Samples were aliquoted and stored at −80°C.

Wild type (WT) and mutant human laforin [10 (link)], SEX4 [5 (link)], and SEX4ΔCBM [11 (link)] were expressed and purified as previously reported. Cm-laforin (domains 123, residues 157-532 C480S) and sub-domain constructs, CBM linker (domains 12l, residues 157-379), CBM (domains 12, residues 157-356), and DSP (domains 3, residues 379-532 C480S) were expressed from pET28b in E. coli strain Rosetta-2 (DE3) (Millipore Sigma, Burlington, MA). Cells were grown in Terrific Broth to an OD600 1.5, cold-shocked for 15 minutes, induced with 1mM IPTG, and grown overnight at 16°C. Cell pellets were harvested and frozen at −20°C. Cells were lysed using lysozyme and sonication. Initial purification was accomplished by Immobilized Metal Affinity Chromatography (IMAC) with HIS-Select HF resin (Millipore Sigma, St. Louis, MO). Protein was loaded and washed in 20mM Tris, 100mM NaCl, 5mM 2-mercaptoethanol (BME), pH 8.0 and eluted with 300 mM Imidazole, 100 mM NaCl, 5mM BME, pH 8.0. Subsequently, proteins were purified by preparative size exclusion using an AKTA pure with Superdex75 HiLoad 16/60 column (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Marlborough, MA) equilibrated and run in SEC buffer [20 mM Tris, 100 mM NaCl, 2mM Dithiothreitol (DTT), pH 7.5].

The expression plasmids encoding the His-tag fused MS2 protein gene were transformed into Rosetta 2(DE3) (Merck, Darmstadt, Germany). LB culture (100 mL) supplemented with 200 µg/mL ampicillin and 35 µg/mL chloramphenicol was inoculated with 1/100 volume of pre-cultured transformed cells and cultured at 37 °C until OD600 = 0.5. The recombinant proteins were induced with 0.1 mM IPTG at a final concentration of 15 °C for 16 h with shaking. After harvesting and centrifugation, the cell pellets were dissolved in ice-cold extraction buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 500 mM NaCl, 2.5 mM MgCl2, 0.5% NP-40 (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), 1 mM PMSF, 2 mg/mL lysozyme, and 2 µL 10 mg/mL DNase) and then sonicated. Cell debris was removed after centrifugation (twice at 15,000× g, 10 min, 4 °C). Half of the lysate solution was stored at −80 °C until use. For purification of His-tagged MS2 protein, 200 µL Ni-NTA slurry beads (QIAGEN, Venlo, The Netherlands) were added to the lysate, incubated with rotation at 4 °C for 1 h, and washed three times with wash buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 500 mM NaCl, 0.5% NP-40, and 10 mM imidazole). The recombinant protein was eluted using elution buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 500 mM NaCl, 0.5% NP-40, and 500 mM imidazole) and was dialyzed at 4 °C overnight in dialysis buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl, 0.5% NP-40, 1 mM DTT, and 1 mM EDTA).

Cloning and Expression of GsI-IIC RT

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Full length His-tag GsI-IIC RT used for crystallization contained the native N-terminus and was constructed by adding a non-cleavable 8xHis tag directly to the C-terminus by PCR from a GsI-IIC RT pMal fusion vector described previously (Mohr et al., 2013 (link)). The PCR product was ligated into the pET14b expression vector (Millipore) using NcoI and PstI restriction sites. The vector was transformed into BL21-CodonPlus (DE3)-RIPL chemically competent cells (Agilent) and plated onto LB plates containing 100 μg/mL ampicillin and 25 μg/mL chloramphenicol.
Wild-type and mutant GsI-IIC RT proteins used in biochemical assays were expressed as maltose-binding protein rigid fusions from pMRF-GsI-IIC (Mohr et al., 2013 (link)). GsI-IIC RT mutants were constructed in pMRF-GsI-IIC by site-directed mutagenesis using a Q5 Site Directed Mutagenesis Kit (New England Biolabs) with primers listed in Table S1. Constructs were transformed into Rosetta 2 (DE3) (EMD Millipore) chemically competent cells and plated onto LB plates containing 100 μg/mL ampicillin and 25 μg/mL chloramphenicol.
All constructs were verified by sequencing.

Heterologous Expression of Chryseobacterium gleum

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Chryseobacterium gleum DSM 16776 was obtained from the German collection of microorganisms (DSMZ). E. coli strain JM109 [genotype endA1 recA1, gyrA96, thi, hsdR17,(rK-, mK+), relA1, supE44, λ-, Δ(lac-proAB), (F', traD36, proAB, lacIqZΔM15)] and the pQE-30 expression vector were purchased from Promega (Madison, USA) and Qiagen (Valencia, USA), respectively. The origin of replication in pQE-30 is ColE1 (pBR322) and transcription of the inserted gene is controlled by the bacteriophage T5 promoter (recognized by the E. coli housekeeping RNA polymerase) and two lac operator sequences (conferring inducibility by IPTG). For efficient repression the host strain JM109 which over-expresses the LacI repressor was used. JM109 was transformed with the plasmid pRARE2, which contains the tRNA genes argU, argW, ileX, glyT, leuW, proL, metT, thrT, tyrU, thrU and argX. The usage of the rare codons AGG, AGA, AUA, CUA, CCC, GGA and CGG is thereby supplemented. The plasmid was isolated from Rosetta2 (DE3) (Merck Chemicals, UK) (F-ompT hsdSB(rB- mB-) gal dcm (DE3) pRARE2) cells. The resulting chloramphenicol-resistant strain JM109-pRARE2 was the expression host.

Cloning and Purification of Borrelia OMP Proteins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Candidate OMP DNA sequences including bb0405, bb0406, and bb0838 were amplified from B. burgdorferi B31 genomic DNA using primers listed in Table 3. The amplicons were subsequently digested and cloned into the NheI or BamHI and XhoI sites of pET23a (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA). The constructs were transformed into the E. coli strain Rosetta 2 DE3 (EMD Millipore), and DNA sequencing was performed to verify that the sequence remained unaltered throughout the cloning process. Recombinant proteins were induced and purified using nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid agarose (Qiagen,Valencia, CA) as described previously [51 (link)]. Recombinant BB0405 and BB0406 were folded in DDM buffer [50 mM Tris, 100 mM NaCl, dodecyl-β-D-maltopyranoside (DDM; Affymetrix, 14 Santa Clara, CA)] pH 7.6 for BB0405 (0.5 % DDM) and pH 8.6 for BB0406 (2.0 % DDM) (pH and DDM concentrations were optimized for each protein) at 4 °C overnight, and the insoluble material was pelleted by centrifugation at 20,000 x g for 30 min at 4 °C.

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.
