Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
E. coli strains producing recombinant proteins were harvested by centrifugation (2000 × g). The pellet of 250 A600 units equivalent of bacterial cells was resuspended in 1.5 ml of buffer A (10 mm Tris, pH 7.6, 10 μg/ml DNase (Sigma), Complete Protease Inhibitor Mixture (Roche Applied Science), and sucrose 20% (w/w) (Sigma)). The cells were passed through a French press cell disruptor (SIM-AMICO) at 1500 pressure units (p.s.i.) using a 3/8-inch-diameter piston (20K French pressure cell, Thermo). Unbroken cells and possible inclusion bodies were removed by two cycles of centrifugation at 4 °C for 15 min at 1600 × g. The resulting supernatant was centrifuged at 4 °C for 1 h at 125,000 × g. The collected crude membrane pellet was resuspended in 0.5 ml of buffer M (10 mm Tris, pH 7.4, Complete Protease Inhibitor Mixture (Roche Applied Science), and sucrose 20% (w/w)). The membrane fraction was then added on top of a discontinuous sucrose gradient consisting of 1.5-ml layers ranging from 60% (bottom) to 30% by 5% increments and separated according to the method described previously (41 (link)). Fractions of 500 μl were collected, and the protein content was analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western blot.

Cell lysates were prepared as described previously with minor modifications25 (link). In brief, confluent cells were washed with cold PBS and then scraped from plates in the presence of cold lysis buffer containing 20 mM Tris (pH 8.0), 1% NP-40, 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), 150 mM NaCl, 0.5% sodium deoxycholate, and complete protease inhibitor mixture (Boehringer Mannheim). Floating cells in the conditioned media were collected via centrifugation and resuspended in cold lysis buffer. Cell lysates obtained from confluent and floating cells were centrifuged for 15 min at 4 °C to remove cell debris. The aliquots were stored at − 70 °C until further use.

Equal amounts of protein samples were separated on 8% Tris/glycine gels and then transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (GE Healthcare, Uppsala, Sweden). Subsequently, the membranes were incubated with primary antibodies and HRP-coupled secondary antibodies (Jackson ImmunoResearch, West Grove, Pennsylvania, USA). Chemiluminescence was measured, using an imager and the software Fusion (Vilber Loumat).

Cell pellets from the ASML cell line were collected and re-suspended in buffer containing 0.1 M NaCl, 10 mM Tris-HCl and 1 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA). Thereafter, an equal quantity of lysis buffer (100 mM Tris-HCl, 4% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), 20% glycerol) was added. Both buffers were supplemented with Complete TM protease inhibitor mixture (Roche Molecular Biochemicals, Mannheim, Germany) as recommended by the manufacturer. The lysis buffer was additionally supplemented with dithiotreitol (DTT) to a final concentration of 200 mM. Lysates were boiled for 10 min at 99°C in a Thermomixer (Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany) at a mixing frequency of 500 rpm and thereafter centrifuged at 10,600 × g for 10 min at 4°C. The protein concentration in a portion of each sample, lysed without DTT, was determined using the Pierce BCA Protein Assay kit (Pierce Biotechnology, Rockford, IL, USA) according to the recommendations of the manufacturer.

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.
