Blue Native gel analysis was performed according to manufacturer instructions (Novex). Samples were prepared as follows: Mid-Log phase culture cells were washed twice in PBS, resuspended in 24 μL extraction buffer (25 mM HEPES, 150 mM sucrose, 20 mM potassium glutamate, 3 mM MgCl2, 0.5% NP40, 150 mM KCl, 0.5 mM DTT, and SIGMAFAST Protease Inhibitor Cocktail, EDTA-free [Sigma-Aldrich]), incubated on ice for 20 min, and centrifuged at full speed for 10 min/4°C. Eighteen microliters of the supernatant was added to 6.25 μL of 4× Native PAGE buffer and 1 μL of G-250 Coomassie sample buffer. The samples were electrophoresed through precast 4%–16% NativePAGE Novex Bis-Tris gels following the manufacturer specifications (Life Technologies). The NativeMark Unstained Protein standard (Life Technologies) was used to estimate complex sizes. Proteins were transferred to Immun-Blot PVDF 0.2 μm membranes (BioRad). Membranes were fixed in 8% acetic acid for 15 min, rinsed with water, and incubated with primary or secondary antibody. The size marker lane was removed prior to antibody incubation, air-dried, equilibrated with methanol, and stained with Coomassie dye for visualization.

Expression plasmids encoding WT SpCas9, SpG, and SpRY each with a -P2A-EGFP signal (RTW3027, RTW4177 and RTW4830, respectively) were used to generate human cell lysates containing SpCas9 proteins. Approximately 20-24 hours prior to transfection, 1.5x105 HEK 293T cells were seeded in 24-well plates. Transfections containing 500 ng of human codon optimized nuclease expression plasmid and 1.5 μL TransIT-X2 were mixed in a total volume of 50 μL of Opti-MEM, incubated at room temperature for 15 minutes, and added to the cells. The lysate was harvested after 48 hours by discarding the media and resuspending the cells in 100 μL of gentle lysis buffer (containing 1X SIGMAFAST Protease Inhibitor Cocktail, EDTA-Free (Sigma), 20 mM Hepes pH 7.5, 100 mM KCl, 5 mM MgCl2, 5% glycerol, 1 mM DTT, and 0.1% Triton X-100). The amount of SpCas9 protein was approximated from the whole-cell lysate based on EGFP fluorescence. SpCas9 lysates were normalized to 180 nM fluorescien (Sigma) based on a standard curve. Fluorescence was measured in 384-well plates on a DTX 880 Multimode Plate Reader (Beckman Coulter) with λex = 485 nm and λem= 535 nm.

Where described, whole cell lysates and mouse liver tissue samples were prepared using RIPA buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 1% NP40, 1% sodium deoxycholate, 0.1% SDS, 0.5 mM sodium orthovanadate, 1X SIGMAFAST EDTA free protease inhibitor cocktail [Sigma Aldrich, Saint Louis, MO]) with concentrations determined using the Pierce BCA Protein Assay (Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL). Independent of the experiments performed, all samples were size-fractionated on 10% SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions and electro-transferred to immuno-blot polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane (BioRad). Membranes were incubated with polyclonal anti-FETUB or fibrinogen γ antibodies (SantaCruz, Hercules, CA) and visualized with the appropriate horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody (Santa Cruz). Total protein in all experiments was assessed by Ponceau S staining and used for normalization (Sigma). Immunoreactive proteins were detected using enhanced chemiluminescence (Thermo Scientific, Pierce Biotechnology, Rockford, IL) with image capture performed using either a ChemiDoc Imager or ChemiDoc Touch Imaging System (BioRad). Results were quantified using QuantityOne or Image Lab Version 5.2.1 software, where the values are presented as arbitrary units (AU).

Protein samples were prepared by homogenising frozen tissue samples in RIPA buffer (Thermo Fisher®) supplemented with SIGMA FAST® EDTA‐free protease inhibitor cocktail (Sigma®). Protein concentrations were determined via the Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher®), and 20 μg of each sample was run on a 4%‐ to 20%‐gradient polyacrylamide gel (BioRad®). Standard western blotting protocols were followed utilising nitrocellulose membrane (BioRad®). Primary antibodies were obtained from Invitrogen® (Anti‐FGF21; MA 5–35418) and Cell Signaling® (Anti‐Beta Actin; 4970). The anti‐rabbit IgG DyLight™ 800 (Cell Signaling®; 5151) was used as the secondary antibody, and blots were scanned with the LiCor Odyssey® infrared scanner. The Odyssey software was utilised for detection and band intensity calculations. Signal intensities of FGF21 were determined relative to those of beta actin.

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.
