In order to prepare human protein library, the CMV promoter-based vectors encoding a cDNA fragment of human gene (~14,000) was transiently transfected into FreeStyle293 cells (Invitrogen) using 293fectin (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer's instructions. After 3 days of incubation, cells were disrupted in a bead beater and the cell disruptions were frozen at −80 °C until use.
To prepare the membrane-associated human GLUT8, the pcDNA3.1 vector (Invitrogen) encoding a cDNA fragment of human GLUT8 was transiently transfected into FreeStyle293 cells. After 3 days of incubation, cells were washed with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and suspended in buffer A, which contained 50 mM HEPES (pH 7.4), 1 mM EDTA. The cells were homogenized and centrifuged at 950×g for 10 min at 4 °C, after which the supernatant was recovered. Total membrane fractions were isolated by ultracentrifugation at 140,000×g for 60 min at 4 °C, and resuspended in buffer A. Membrane fractions were frozen at −80 °C until use.

Example 22

A mouse PlexinA1/A2 sema domain chimeric protein gene was designed on the basis of the sequence of NCBI Reference Sequence NP_032907.1 to encode a sequence in which the signal peptide (from the N-terminus to isoleucine at position 24) was replaced with artificial signal peptide HMM+38 (SEQ ID NO: 7), and a sequence from arginine at position 459 to serine at position 510 of the mouse PlexinA2 sema domain protein, the FLAG tag (SEQ ID NO: 5), and the termination codon were added to a sequence after isoleucine at position 458 of the mouse PlexinA1 sema domain protein. This gene was prepared by gene synthesis. The amino acid sequence is shown in SEQ ID NO: 40. The prepared gene was incorporated into an expression vector and then introduced into FreeStyle293 cells from Invitrogen for expression, and the mouse PlexinA1/A2 sema domain protein was purified from the culture supernatant by affinity purification using anti-FLAG M2 antibody affinity gel (Sigma-Aldrich) and gel filtration chromatography.

Recombinant CCHFV GP38 Protein Production

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A gene fragment encoding residues 1 to 515 of CCHFV strain IbAr 10200 GPC was codon optimized for human cell expression (via GenScript) and cloned into a pαH eukaryotic expression plasmid with a C-terminal HRV3C protease cleavage site, an 8× HisTag, and a Twin-Strep-tag. This plasmid was transiently transfected into FreeStyle 293 cells (Invitrogen) using polyethyleneimine. Transfected FreeStyle 293 cells were treated with 5 μM kifunensine to ensure uniform high-mannose glycosylation. GP38 was expressed in soluble form and secreted out into the medium, which was harvested and purified over Strep-Tactin resin (IBA Lifesciences). A furin cleavage site (residues 244 to 247) separates the N-terminal MLD and GP38 protein. Because not all of the MLD was cleaved from GP38 by endogenous furin, additional MLD was cleaved off by treatment with furin protease during Strep-tag-based affinity purification. After elution of GP38 from Strep-Tactin resin, the affinity tags were removed by HRV3C cleavage. GP38 was further purified by SEC using a HiLoad 16/600 Superdex 200 pg (GE Healthcare Biosciences) in 2 mM Tris (pH 8.0), 200 mM NaCl, and 0.02% NaN3.

Recombinant gp140 Envs were expressed as chimeric SOSIPs, where the gp120 of CH0848 was grafted onto the BG505 gp41 [88 (link)]. The trimers were stabilized with E64K and A316W mutations [15 (link), 49 (link)]. Proteins were expressed in Freestyle293 cells (Invitrogen) using transient cotransfection of Env and furin DNA. Cell-free culture media was subjected to PGT151 antibody affinity and superdex200 size exclusion chromatography.

Recombinant CCHFV GP38 Protein Production

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Recombinant CCHFV GP38 proteins were produced from the following isolates: Oman-199809166 (UniProt: A0A0U3C6Q7), Kosova-Hoti (UniProt: B2BSL7), 200406546-Turkey (UniProt: A0A0U2SQZ0), Afg09–2990 (UniProt: E5FEZ4), and 79121M18 (UniProt: D4NYK3). Gene fragments (Integrated DNA Technologies) of each isolate’s MLD-GP38 sequence encoding for residues 1–515, as denoted by CCHFV IbAr10200 strain GPC numbering, were codon-optimized for human cell expression (GenScript Codon Optimization Tool). Gene fragments were each cloned into a pαH eukaryotic expression vector with a C-terminal HRV 3C protease cleavage site, an 8x HisTag, and a Twin-Strep-tag. The plasmid for CCHFV strain IbAr10200 GP38 was previously reported28 (link). To ensure cleavage of the MLD from GP38, a pCDNA3.1 plasmid encoding for furin was co-transfected with each clinical GP38 plasmid at a mass ratio of 1:9 furin:GP38. The two plasmids were transiently transfected into FreeStyle 293 cells (Invitrogen) using polyethylenimine followed by treatment with 5 μM kifunensine to ensure uniform high-mannose glycosylation. Soluble GP38 was secreted from the harvested medium and purified via Ni-NTA resin (Thermo Scientific HisPur Ni-NTA Resin). GP38 proteins were further purified via SEC using a Superdex 200 Increase 10/300 GL (GE Healthcare Biosciences) in 2 mM Tris pH 8.0, 200 mM NaCl, and 0.02% NaN3.

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.
