Total proteins were extracted from tissue samples using 10 µL tris‐lysis buffer (150 mM NaCl (cat. no. 1.06404.1000, VWR), 20 mM Tris (cat. no. A1087, AppliChem GmbH, Darmstadt, Germany), 1mM EGTA (cat. no. E3889, Sigma‐Aldrich), 1% (v/v) IGEPAL (v/v; cat. no. 18896, Sigma‐Aldrich) and 1 mM EDTA (cat. no. 03690, Sigma‐Aldrich)) with 2% Halt protease inhibitor cocktail (v/v) (cat. no. 78438, Thermo Fisher Scientific) per mg tissue. Samples were homogenised using stainless steel beads (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) and the TissueLyser II (Qiagen) at 30 cycles/s for 2 min. Samples were incubated on ice for 20 min and mixed by vortexing every 5 min. Samples were centrifuged at 15,000g for 20 min at 4°C, and the supernatants were stored at −80°C until analysis. The whey protein BLG were quantified in tissue extracts using a commercial bovine BLG ELISA kit (cat. no. A10‐125A, Bethyl Laboratories, Montgomery, AL, US) according to the manufacturer's protocol with the exception that plates were coated overnight.

Nuclei Extraction from Cultured Cells

To separate nuclei from cytoplasm in CNs, an Abcam protocol was applied with slight modifications. In brief, cells were scraped off on ice in fractionation buffer [20 mM HEPES (pH 7.4) (Carl Roth), 10 mM KCl (Carl Roth), 2 mM MgCl2 (Merck Millipore), 1 mM EDTA (Carl Roth), 1 mM EGTA (AppliChem), 1 mM dithiothreitol (AppliChem) and 1×PI] and incubated for 15 min on ice. Samples were then passed through a 27-gauge needle (Sigma-Aldrich) ten times, then incubated on ice for 20 min. Samples were centrifuged at 750 g for 5 min at 4°C and supernatant containing cytoplasm was transferred to a fresh tube. One quarter of the total amount of 5×RIPA buffer [750 mM NaCl (VWR), 5% Igepal CA-630 (Sigma-Aldrich), 2.5% Sodium deoxycholate (Carl Roth), 0.5% SDS (Sigma-Aldrich) and 250 mM Tris (pH 8.0) (AppliChem)] with 1×PI was added. The nuclear pellet was washed with fractionation buffer followed by ten more passes through a 27-gauge needle and 10 min centrifugation at 750 g at 4°C. The supernatant was discarded, the pellet was resuspended in 1×RIPA buffer plus PI and sonicated to shear genomic DNA. Protein isolation was performed according to the procedure described above.

Nuclear Fractionation and HAT/HDAC Analysis

Cells were seeded in 60 mm Petri dishes (SPL Lifescience, Pochon, Republic of Korea) at 3 × 105 per dish and incubated overnight under standard conditions. Afterward, the cells were treated with CBL0137 at concentrations of 0.6 μM and 1.2 μM or DMSO (0.1%) as vehicle control. After 24 h, the cells were washed with PBS and lysed in buffer for nuclear extraction and fractionation (Abcam protocol: 20 mM HEPES pH 7.4 (PanEco, Moscow, Russia), 10 mM KCl (CHIMMED, Moscow, Russia), 2 mM MgCl2 (CHIMMED, Moscow, Russia), 1 mM EDTA (PanEco, Moscow, Russia), 1 mM EGTA (AppliChem, Darmstadt, Germany), 20 mM dithiothreitol (SERVA, Heidelberg, Germany), and Complete Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (Roche, Basel, Switzerland)). Briefly, the cells were lysed for 15 min on ice, and then cell suspension was performed through a 26- and 23-gauge needle with the removal of supernatant (for the mechanical destruction of the cytoplasmic and nuclear membrane, respectively). The precipitate was resuspended in deionized water with Complete Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) and then homogenized with Soniprep 150 Plus ultrasonic homogenizer (MSE, London, UK) for 3 s at a power of 2A on ice. The nuclear fraction was used to analyze the enzymatic activity of HATs as well as the level of HDAC1 and HDAC3 protein expression.

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.
