Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Strains expressing HisRS mRNA variants (WT, GAG, Stem disrupt, and Stem unchange) tagged at the 3' UTR with multiple MS2 loops and expressing pCP-GFP [58 (link)] were grown to logarithmic phase (OD600 0.8–1) in 500 ml. For RNA “Input” sample, 10 ml were set aside, and RNA were extracted by the hot phenol method [59 (link)]. The remainder of cells (490 ml) were subjected to cross-linking by addition of formaldehyde (0.05% final concentration) in PBS and slowly rotated at room temperature for 10 min to cross-link protein–RNA complexes. 0.125 M Glycine was added to stop the cross-linking reaction. Cells were then suspended in 1 ml cold buffer B (with 5 mg/ml Heparin final concentration). Cells were lysed and cleared as in RIP method. Aliquot (1/20 of the lysate) were set aside for proteins' “Input” sample. Lysates were loaded on GFP-Trap_A (ChromoTek) and rotated at 4°C for 2 hr. Samples were washed four times in wash buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl [pH 7.5], 0.5 M NaCl, 0.5% NP40, 0.1% SDS, 0.5 mM EDTA, 0.5 mM DTT, 0.01 U/μl RiboLock RNase Inhibitor [Thermo Scientific]). Proteins were eluted from 80% of the beads with LSB and resolved on 10% PAGE. RNA was extracted from 20% of the beads by 0.2 M Glycine buffer (pH 2.5). Cross-linking was reversed by heating at 65°C for 2 hr in reverse cross-linking buffer, and RNA was precipitated after phenol:choloroform extraction.

Cells cultured in 6-well plates were disrupted with 300 μl of cold lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 0.5% NP40) supplemented with a protease inhibitor mix (GE Healthcare). Lysates were preclarified by centrifugation (14,000 g, 4 °C, 15 min). Immunoprecipitations were performed using purified GFP Binding Protein (GBP)46 (link) bound covalently to AminoLink resin, according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Thermo Scientific Pierce), after pre-clearing with AminoLink resin alone. 200 μl of cell lysate was incubated with 25 μl of GBP-AminoLink resin for 1h30min at 4 °C under constant stirring. Alternatively, GFP-tagged proteins were immunoprecipitated with magnetic GFP-Trap®_A (Chromotek, Planegg, Germany). After extensive washing with cold W100 buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA), immunoprecipitates were finally eluted from the beads by boiling for 5 min in Laemmli sample buffer, then were submitted to Western blot analysis.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To test whether Nup188 biochemically interacted with Cep192, Cep152, and PCM1, we cotransfected HEK293T cells with pFLAG-NUP188 and pEGFP-C2, pGFP-Cep192 (pKM3105), pGFP-Cep152, or pGFP-PCM1. After 24 h, cells were washed with PBS and lysed in 50 mM Tris, pH 7.4, 250 mM NaCl, 1% Igepal, 1 mM PMSF, and protease and phosphatase inhibitors for 20 min on ice. The insoluble material was pelleted by centrifugation at 14,000 rpm for 10 min at 4°C, and the supernatant was incubated with anti-GFP nanobody-conjugated agarose beads (GFP-Trap_A; Chromotek) for 2 h at 4°C. Beads were then washed in lysis buffer three times and eluted with Laemmli sample buffer. Proteins in eluates were separated by SDS-PAGE gels and processed for Western blotting.

Solubilization and Purification of hTRPV3

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Expression and isolation of crude membranes were performed as described above. For solubilization, 2% (w/v) DDM and 0.2% (w/v) CHAPS (anagrade, Affymetrix) were added to gently thawed membranes, and the sample was stirred for 1 h at 4 °C. The solubilizate was ultracentrifuged (60,000 × g for 1 h) to discard non-solubilized material and protein aggregates. The supernatant was incubated for 30 min with GPF-nanobody-coupled agarose beads (GFP-Trap_A, Chromotek) at 4 °C. Then the flow-through was discarded, and the beads were washed with 10 column volumes of buffer A, supplemented with 0.2% (w/v) DDM and 0.2% (w/v) CHAPS. To elute hTRPV3, the fusion protein was cleaved off overnight by incubation with PreScission protease (0.3 mg·ml−1) at 4 °C, leaving the GFP-His tag bound to the beads. The total elution (eluate + 5 column volumes of wash) was then concentrated to ∼1 ml (100 kDa cut-off, Vivaspin 20, Sartorius) and loaded on a Superose 6 10/300 GL gel filtration column (AKTA purifier system, GE Healthcare). The running buffer consisted of buffer B (100 mm NaCl, 10 mm Tris, pH 7.5), supplemented with 0.03% (w/v) DDM and 0.1% (w/v) CHAPS. After analysis on SDS-PAGE, the peak fractions were compiled and concentrated (100 kDa cut-off, Vivaspin 6, Sartorius).

The native coimmunoprecipitation experiment was performed on enriched ER fractions as described (31 (link)). Briefly, 100 optical density at 600 nm (OD600) units of yeast cells were washed twice with TNE buffer [50 mM tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 5 mM EDTA, 1 mM phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride, and protease inhibitor cocktail; Roche Diagnostics] and disrupted with glass beads, after which cell debris and glass beads were removed by centrifugation. The supernatant was then centrifuged at 17,000g for 15 min at 4°C. The pellet was resuspended in TNE, and digitonin was added to a final concentration of 1%. The suspension was incubated for 1 hour at 4°C with rotation, after which insoluble components were removed by centrifugation at 13,000g for 60 min at 4°C. For immunoprecipitation of Gas1-GFP, the sample was first preincubated with empty agarose beads (ChromoTek) at 4°C for 1 hour and subsequently incubated with GFP-Trap_A (ChromoTek) at 4°C for 3 hours. The immunoprecipitated beads were washed five times with TNE containing 0.2% digitonin, eluted with SDS sample buffer, resolved on SDS-PAGE, and analyzed by immunoblot.

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.
