Biotinylation and FITC Labeling of Anti-mouse IgD

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Monoclonal anti-mouse IgD (clone 1.3.7) was first dialyzed in 1x PBS over night at 4°C. 10 mg of the mAb (in 1ml of 0.1M NaHCO3, pH8.0) was incubated with 1 mg of the biotin reagent (EZ-Link Sulfo-NHS-LC-Biotin, Fisher Scientific, Pittsburg, PA) for 2 hours at room temperature. Labeled proteins were then dialyzed against normal saline. For the FITC labeling, 0.5 ml of mAb was prepared in 1×PBS containing 40 μl of the borate buffer (0.67M) and added to the FITC reagent (Pierce FITC Antibody Labeling Kit, Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL). The reaction mixture was then incubated at room temperature for 60 minutes protected from light. Labeled proteins were purified with the purification resin provided with the kits.

Quantification of CD24 and CD11b Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A total of 1 × 106 leukocytes were used for each test and stained with 0.05 µg anti-CD24-FITC mAb (NS17), anti-CD11b-PerCp-Cy5.5 (rat IgG2b, clone M1/70, Abcam, Israel) or remained unstained for 30 min at RT. NS17 is a humanized IgG1 anti-CD24 antibody that we developed by means of genetic engineering and is fully characterized. The purified NS17 was labeled with FITC using the Pierce™ FITC Antibody Labeling Kit according to manufacturer’s instructions (ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA).
After staining, the cells were washed twice with FACS buffer (0.01% sodium azide, 10% fetal bovine serum [FBS] in ice-cold PBS) and then analyzed by flow cytometry (CyFlow Cube 6, Sysmex, Germany). Data were analyzed following the creation of a hierarchical population tree in the software at the beginning of the screen. This template was used in all subsequent analyses. The template file included compensation adjustment, which was uniformly applied to all the collected data to minimize fluorescence overlap between detection channels. The percentage of positive cells was determined by subtracting the percentage of CD24 and CD11b-positive cells (dual stain) from CD24-positive cells (single stain). Flow cytometry representative graph of the different populations and their fluorescence intensity is detailed in Figure 1.

Recombinant HMGB1 was expressed in E. coli and purified to homogeneity as previously described (41 (link), 42 (link)). HMGB1-FITC was prepared by using a Pierce FITC Antibody Labeling Kit (Thermo Scientific). Anti-HMGB1 mAbs were generated as described previously (17 (link)). Nonimmune mouse IgG was used as isotype control in experiments when anti-HMGB1 mAb was used. HMGB1 with redox modifications was created as described previously (14 (link)).

The number of FL-5Mal moieties conjugated to NFG1CG4-hFasLECD was estimated according to the calculation equations described in the instruction manual of Pierce FITC Antibody Labeling kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. 2014 ) from the measured absorbance values at 280 and 495 nm. Molar extinction coefficient of Fluorescein group at 495 nm and that of NFG1CG4-hFasLECD at 280 nm were assumed as 70,000 and 29,005, respectively. The latter value was obtained using the Prot Param tool on the ExPASy Server (Gasteiger et al. 2005 ).

Phages expressing peptide sequences (01cys_EGFR, 04cys_EGFR, 06cys_EGFR, and 30cys_EGFR) and a wild-type M13 phage were conjugated to fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) in order to analyze their binding affinity to EGFR on MDA-MB-231 by flow cytometry. The “Pierce FITC Antibody Labeling Kit” (cat #53027—Thermo Fisher Scientific) was used for the conjugation following the manufacturer’s instructions.

Conjugation of rTGF-β1 RI with DMPE-PEG-maleimide

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
DMPE-PEG-maleimide was purchased from Nanocs, Inc. (NY, USA); recombinant rTGF-β1 RI and TGF-β1 were purchased from R&D Inc. (MN, USA). The recombinant rTGF-β1 RI contains ten cysteines that can react with maleimide. The rTGF-β1 RI cysteine residues are active sites for conjugation and are not involved in binding to TGF-β1. DMPE-PEG-maleimide was dissolved in PBS (pH 7.4) to a final concentration of 1 mg/mL, and rTGF-β1 RI was prepared according to the manufacturer’s instructions. DMPE-PEG-maleimide was mixed with rTGF-β1 RI (molar ratio of 10–20:1) and incubated for 2 h at room temperature. The mixed solution was then filtered using Amicon Ultra (Ultracel-10 kDa, Millipore, IL, USA) to remove impurities and stored at − 80 °C for later use. For confocal imaging and FACS analysis of rTGF-β1 RI binding efficiency, rTGF-β1 RI proteins were prelabeled with FITC according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Pierce™ FITC Antibody Labeling Kit, Thermo Fisher Scientific), and then FITC-labeled rTGF-β1 RI was incubated with DMPE-PEG-maleimide to afford a DMPE-PEG-rTGF-β1 RI-FITC solution. TGF-β1 protein was labeled with Cy3 according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Lightning-Link™ Cy3 Kit, Innova Biosciences).

Recombinant EBOV GP was produced from insect cells and purified using immunoaffinity chromatography following previously published methods (Lehrer et al., 2017 (link)). To further increase the level of purity, protein used for our studies was subjected to an additional purification step via size-exclusion chromatography using a HiLoad 16/600 Superdex 200 prep grade column (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Piscataway, NJ) equilibrated in phosphate buffered saline, pH7.4 (Figure 1A). FITC labeling of purified EBOV GP was performed using the Pierce FITC Antibody Labeling Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) according to manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, protein prepared in borate buffer (50 mM sodium borate, pH 8.5) was added to FITC reagent and mixed by pipetting up and down. After incubation for 60 min at room temperature, the labeling reaction was added to the spin column containing a purification resin to remove unbound FITC. After thorough mixing, the purified FITC-labeled protein was eluted by centrifugation of the spin columns for 30–45 s at 1,000 g.

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.
