Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The Exosc3 open reading frame encoding the mouse EXOSC3 protein was cloned into pGEX-6P-2 plasmid (GE Healthcare Life Sciences [now Cytiva]) to create an N terminally GST-tagged EXOSC3 construct. Recombinant GST-EXOSC3 was expressed in Escherichia coli Rosetta 2 (DE3). The GST fusion protein was purified by affinity chromatography on GSH-Sepharose (GE Healthcare Life Sciences [now Cytiva]) in 300 mM NaCl, 50 mM Hepes/NaOH (pH 7.5), 5% glycerol and 2 mM beta-mercapto-ethanol. The fusion protein was eluted by addition of 30 mM reduced GSH. The GST tag was removed using PreScission protease (GE Healthcare Life Sciences [now Cytiva]), and the EXOSC3 protein was further purified by collecting the flowthrough of a second affinity chromatography on GSH-Sepharose resin. The untagged protein was further purified on a Superdex200 size-exclusion chromatography column equilibrated in 150 mM NaCl, 30 mM Hepes/NaOH (pH 7.5), 5% glycerol. Expression and purification of both recombinant GST-EXOSC3 and untagged EXOSC3 were confirmed by SDS-PAGE, followed by Coomassie staining. The purified untagged protein was used as an immunogen to raise rabbit polyclonal antibodies by Josman, LLC. Sera containing anti-EXOSC3 antibodies was collected 21 days after immunization and used directly for immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation, and immunofluorescence.

Recombinant SntA Protein Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The constructs bearing the sequences coding for the SntA core and its mutants contain the cloned coding sequences in frame with those of the PreScission protease cut sequence and the glutathione S-transferase (GST) label. The recombinant proteins can be expressed from the isopropyl ß-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside-inducible tac promoter of the pGEX-6P-3 vector as GST fusions that can be cut with PreScission protease (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, available from VWR International Eurolab SLU, Llinars del Vallès, Spain) to yield the desired SntA protein with a GPLGS N-terminal extension. The expression and purification of the recombinant proteins were performed as described (López-Villamizar et al., 2016 (link)). In brief: each expression construct was used to transform BL-21 cells; ampicillin-resistant colonies were selected, cultured in suspension, induced by isopropyl ß-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside, and collected by centrifugation. The cells were resuspended in the presence of a protease inhibitor cocktail, lysed by sonication, and the lysis supernatant was taken for purification of the recombinant proteins. Purification was accomplished by affinity chromatography on GSH-Sepharose (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, available from VWR International Eurolab SLU, Llinars del Vallès, Spain), followed by separation from the GST label by specific proteolysis with PreScission.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Recombinant proteins with His or GST tag were expressed in Rosetta (DE3) pLys Escherichia coli (Novagen, Bilerica, MA). Cultures were grown until linear phase (0.6 OD) and expression of proteins were induced by 250 μM IPTG at 18 °C for 20 h. As iron is essential for TH activity, to maintain TH activity 2% glucose and 1 mM FeSO4 together were added when inducing the expression of recombinant TH as reported29 (link). The culture was then harvested and recombinant proteins were purified by Ni2+-nitrilotriacetic acid resin (Qiagen) or GSH-Sepharose (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ) according to the manufacturer’s protocol, respectively. The obtained proteins were then dialyzed in PBS.
For the generation of anti-TH antibody, purified his-tagged TH recombinant protein in PBS was mixed with equal volume of Freund’s adjuvant forming an emulsion. The mixture was then used to immunize a New Zealand white rabbit and the Anti-TH antibody was purified from serum with GST-tagged TH conjugated to CNBr activated Sepharose affinity purification (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ). The specificity of the antibodies was verified by Western blot analysis.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Recombinant proteins containing a hexahistidine (His6) or glutathione S-transferase (GST) tag were expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) and then isolated using Ni2+-nitrilotriacetic acid resin (Qiagen, Valencia, CA) or GSH-Sepharose (GE Healthcare, Chalfont St. Giles, Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom), respectively. After elution, the proteins were dialyzed in 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM ethylene glycol tetraacetic acid (EGTA), and 10% glycerol and then stored at −80°C.
Two anti-NME7 antisera were generated by immunizing rabbits with NME7 1–140 and full-length NME7 prepared as His6-tagged proteins. The sera obtained were named sera 651 and 673, respectively. Both antibodies were purified using respective antigens in fusion with GST and immobilized on polyvinylidene fluoride membranes. The two antibodies gave similar results in experiments, and most of the data presented here were collected using antibody 651. The production of the following antibodies has been described previously: rabbit anti-CDK5RAP2, anti-GCP2, anti-GCP3, anti-GCP4, anti-GCP5, and anti-GCP6 (Fong et al., 2008 (link); Choi et al., 2010 (link)). These mouse monoclonal antibodies were purchased from Sigma (St. Louis, MO): anti-FLAG (M2), anti–γ-tubulin (GTU-88), anti–α-tubulin (DM1A), and anti–β-actin (AC-15).
