Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The tobacco BY-2 evacuolated protoplast lysate (BYL) was prepared as previously described (Komoda et al. 2004 (link); Ishibashi et al. 2006 ) and the membrane fraction was preserved. DRB7.1, DRB4, DRB2, RTL1, and RTL2 coding sequences were amplified by PCR and cloned into pSP64-poly(A) vector (Promega). HA/Flag epitopes were added during PCR using primers with overhangs encoding tag sequences. Primers are listed in Supplemental Table T1. Plasmids were linearized and mRNAs were in vitro transcribed using AmpliCap SP6 High Yield Message Maker Kit (Cellscript). In vitro translation was carried out as previously described (Ishibashi et al. 2006 ). Briefly, mRNAs (0.05 µg/µL or 120 nM) were mixed in BYL with 10× translation substrate buffer (7.5 mM ATP, 1 mM GTP, 250 mM creatine phosphate, 0.8 mM spermine, Amino Acid Mixture [Promega]), RiboLock RNase inhibitor (Thermo Scientific), creatine kinase 10mg/mL (Roche) and Translation Reaction (TR) buffer (30 mM HEPES-KOH, 80 mM KOAc, 1.8 mM Mg(OAc)2, 2 mM DTT, pH 7.4). Mixtures were incubated 1–2 h at room temperature. One species of mRNA was translated per reaction.

Myc-nedd8 Expression in Zebrafish

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Myc-nedd8 and GFP were subcloned into Psp64 poly (A) vector (Promega). AmpliCap SP6 High Yield message maker kit (Epicenter) was used for capped mRNA synthesis. Myc-nedd8 and GFP mRNA were synthesized and injected into zebrafish embryos at one-cell stage (400 pg/per embryo). To confirm expression of injected mRNAs, the embryos injected with Myc-nedd8 mRNA for 3 days were harvested and the expression of Myc-nedd8 was confirmed by Western blot using anti-Myc antibody (9E10, Santa Cruz).

Quantitative Assay for Autoantibodies

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Recombinant GAD65 and IA-2 were labeled with 35S-methionine (PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA, USA) by in vitro coupled transcription and translation using the TNT SP6 coupled reticulocyte lysate system (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) as described [14 (link)]. Full length cDNA coding for human GAD65 in the pTNT vector (Promega) (pThGAD65) or the intracellular domain (amino acids 606-979) of IA-2 in the pSP64 Poly(A) vector (Promega) (IA-2ic) were used as templates [15 (link)]. GADA and IA-2A were analyzed in a radioligand binding assay (RBA) [14 (link)]. Duplicate samples were incubated with radio-labeled antigen. The samples were transferred to filtration plates (Millipore, Solna, Sweden) and IgG antibodies precipitated with Protein A Sepharose (Zymed Laboratories Inc, San Francisco, CA, USA). After washing to remove all unbound antigen supermix scintillation cocktail (Perkin Elmer) was added and the radioactivity counted in a Wallac Microbeta Trilux system (Perkin Elmer). GADA and IA2A levels were expressed as units per mL (U/mL) derived from the WHO standard 97/550. GADA levels >34 U/mL and IA-2A levels >5 U/ml were considered positive.

Radioactive GFP Fragment Synthesis

A partial GFP fragment amplified by PCR using TI429 and TI431 (Supplemental Table S1) was cloned between SalI and BamHI sites in pSP64-poly(A) vector (Promega). Plasmid linearized by EcoRI was used as template for in vitro transcription with the SP6-scribe standard RNA IVT kit (Cellscript) in the presence of [α-32P]-CTP. The transcripts were capped with the ScriptCap m7G Capping System (Cellscript). The products were purified as described in “Preparation of double-stranded RNA.”

Synthesis of GFP RNA Transcripts

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The pSP64 polyA vector was purchased from Promega (USA). The GFP ORF was cloned from the vector pEGFP-N1 and inserted into the pSP64 polyA vector by HindIII to obtain the SP64-GFP plasmid. The primers used to clone GFP were as follows: antisense: 5′-GATCCACCGGTCGCCACCA-3′; sense: 5′-GTACAGCTCGTCCATGCCGAGAGT-3′. The plasmid SP64-GFP was separately digested with SacI or EcoRI to generate two different types of linear transcriptional templates. Two types of GFP RNA, without or with a 30-nt poly (A) tail, were obtained in a cell-free in vitro transcription system containing NTP mix, RNase inhibitor (Transgene, China), and SP64 RNA polymerase (NEB, USA). DNA templates were digested by RNase-free DNase, and then RNA transcripts were purified using phenol chloroform.

Fragments of TBSV P19 (GenBank: AJ288942.1) and the derivative (R75G R78G), TCV P38 (GenBank: HQ589261.1) and a derivative (W26A W274A), CMV 2b (strain Y, GenBank: D12538.1) or 2b (strain Q, GenBank: Z21863.1), PVY Hc-Pro (GenBank: AFR11765.1), and CVYV P1b (GenBank: DQ496114.1) were amplified by PCR. Fragments of Cardamine chlorotic fleck virus (CCFV) P38 (NC_001600.1), Pelargonium flower break virus (PFBV) P38 (GenBank: DQ443018.1) were synthesized by GeneArt Strings (Thermo Fisher Scientific). DNA fragments encoding HYL1, DRB4, RDR1, RDR2, or RDR6 were amplified by PCR using cDNA prepared from RNA of A. thaliana Col-0. All the fragments were cloned into pSP64-poly(A) vector (Promega) using appropriate restriction sites. Substitution of nucleotides or addition of epitope sequences on genes was performed by PCR using plasmid clones as templates and primers containing relevant sequences. Oligonucleotides are listed in Supplemental Table S1. Each messenger RNA was prepared from the linearized plasmids using AmpliCap SP6 High Yield Message Maker Kit (Cellscript).

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.
