The following cell lines were obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC): human embryonic kidney 293T cells (ATCC CRL-11268); African green monkey kidney epithelial Vero cells (ATCC CCL-81); and baby hamster kidney BHK-21 (ATCC CCL-10). These cells were grown in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 2 mM L-glutamine, penicillin (100 U ml−1) and streptomycin (100 U ml−1), and maintained in a 5% CO2 humidified atmosphere at 37 °C. TZM-bl (JC53-bl) cells were obtained from the NIH AIDS Reagent Program, as contributed by John Kappes and Xiaoyun Wu (University of Alabama, Birmingham, AL) and maintained as above. TZM-bl is a HeLa cell clone genetically engineered to express human CD4, CXCR4 and CCR5, and to contain HIV Tat-responsive reporter genes for firefly luciferase (Luc) and β-galactosidase under regulatory control of the HIV-1 long terminal repeat31 (link). MS40L cells32 (link), kindly provided by Xin Luo (Virginia Polytechnic Institute, Blacksburg, VA), were maintained in Iscove's modified Dulbecco's medium plus 10% FCS and antibiotics, and used for B-cell feeder cultures. Expression of human CD40L by MS40L cells was confirmed by indirect immunofluorescence assay. All cell lines tested negative for mycoplasma.

As previously described, the lentiviral vector preparation was conducted (Lin et al., 2017 (link); Zhang et al., 2021a (link)). Briefly, we utilized human embryonic kidney 293T cells (ATCC, Manassas, VA, United States) to transfect the control lentivirus vector the mouse IL-4 secreting pCDH-NF-κB-mIL-4-copGFP expressing lentivirus vector combined with psPAX2 packaging vector and pMD2G VSV-G envelope vector, with the calcium phosphate transfection kit (Clontech, Mountain View, CA, United States) and 25 mM chloroquine. Next, the diluted virus was added in MSC culture medium supplemented with 6 mg/ml of polybrene (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, United States) and infected to murine MSCs at multiplicity of infection (MOI) = 100. The genetically modified cells were GPF positive confirmed by fluorescence microscope after 3 days of infection (BZ-X810, Keyence, IL, United States).

One hundred nanograms of FLAG-A3G-pcDNA or HA-A3G-pcDNA variants were cotransfected with 200 ng of either Vif-pcDNA or pcDNA3.1(+) empty vector into human embryonic kidney 293T cells (American Type Culture Collection) in 12-well plates (CELLTREAT) using the X-tremeGENE 9 DNA Transfection Reagent (Roche). Cells were incubated at 37°C in 5.0% CO2. At 24 hours after transfection, 2 μM N-carbobenzyloxy-l-leucyl-l-leucyl-l-leucinal (Sigma-Aldrich) or dimethyl sulfoxide control was added. At 48 hours after transfection, the cells were washed once with phosphate-buffered saline and lysed in radioimmunoprecipitation assay buffer with 1× cOmplete Protease Inhibitor (Roche). The lysates were then subjected to Western blot with anti-FLAG M2 monoclonal antibody (mAb) from mouse (Sigma-Aldrich), anti–α-tubulin mAb from mouse (GeneTex), and anti-Vif mAb from mouse (National Institutes of Health AIDS Reagent Program #319) as primary antibodies. Cy3-labeled goat anti-mouse mAb (GE Healthcare) was used as a secondary antibody to detect the signal. The fluorescent signal was detected and visualized with Typhoon RGB Biomolecular Imager (GE Healthcare).

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.
