hPEX5 is carried out by forward primer (5’-CGGTCGACCATGGCAATGCGGGAG-3’) and reverse primer (5’-GTCGACTCACTGGGGCAGGCCAAAC-3’) which include SalI restriction sites, to get the full-length
hPex5 and ESTs clone as template (
Expressed-sequence tags, GE Healthcare).
hPEX5 PCR product cloned into pJET1.2/blunt cloning vector to amplify full-length
hPex5. hPex5 is cut out by SalI from pJET1.2/blunt cloning vector insert it into pCMV-Myc expression vector. A series of mutant constructs of PEX5 were generated by
QuikChange Lightning Multi Site-Directed mutagenesis Kit. The primers for different sites were designed as follow.
Flag-ATM-WT (#31985) and HA-p62 (#28027) plasmids were purchased from Addgene. Flag-ATM R3047Q mutant constructs was generated by
QuikChange Lightning Multi Site-Directed mutagenesis Kit (Agilent Technologies).
HA-Ub (#18712) and
HA-Ub-K0 (#17603) plasmids were purchased from Addgene. DsRed-PTS1 was provided by Dr. Michael Mancini (Baylor College of Medicine, USA). pAT-003 mRFP-EGFP-SKL was provided by Dr. Suresh Subramani (University of California, San Diego, USA). Specificity of mutagenesis was confirmed by direct sequencing using the Sequencing and Microarray Core at U.T. M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas.
