Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Xenopus histone was acetylated with 3H-acetyl CoA (PerkinElmer) using a recombinant p300 as previously described (25 (link)). Unincorporated 3H-acetyl CoA was removed from p300-acetylated histones by dialysis using Slide-A-Lyzer Midi Dialysis Units (3500 MWCO, MilliporeSigma) before being used for histone deacetylation assay. Histone deacetylation assays were carried out at 30 °C for 60 min using 100 ng of WT (wildtype) or mutant HDAC3 proteins, 200 nM DAD, and 1 μM IP4 unless otherwise noted. For the gel-based assay, the product was detected by autoradiography following polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). For the liquid-based assay, ethyl acetate (MilliporeSigma) was used to extract the released 3H-acetic acid, which was quantified by liquid scintillation.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
GST-Tip60 was purified by glutathione-agarose beads using a standard protocol7 (link). Custom purification of His-ATF3 or His-ΔATF3 through a two-step protocol (IMAC affinity chromatography followed by SEC FPLC) was carried out by ProteinOne. The Tip60 HAT activity was assayed by incubating 0.5 μg of GST-Tip60 with 5 μl of [3H]-acetyl CoA (PerkinElmer) and 0.5 μg of recombinant histone H4 (Biolabs) with or without purified ATF3 in a buffer containing 50 mM Tri-HCl (pH 8.0), 1 mM DTT, 0.1 mM EDTA, and 10% glycerol for 1h at 30°C. Reaction mixtures were spotted onto P81 cellulose papers (Millipore) and the papers were washed for 6 times with 50 ml of 50 mM sodium phosphate (pH 9.0). After the final wash, the cellulose papers were air-dried and radioactivity was measured using a scintillation counter (Beckman). To measure Tip60 auto-acetylation, reaction mixtures were resolved by SDS-PAGE, and the [3H]-acetyl labeled Tip60 was visualized by autography.

HAT reactions contained, as indicated in individual figures, chromatin or free octamer (150 ng), activator (20 ng), p300 (10 ng), NAP1 (0.05 μM) where indicated, and either unlabeled acetyl-CoA (10 uM) or 3H-acetyl-CoA (Perkin Elmer) in HEGK100 buffer (10 mM HEPES pH7.6, 1 mM EDTA, 10% glycerol, 10 mM KCl, 100 mM NaCl). After 1 hr incubation at 30 °C, polyethyleneimine was added to a final concentration of 0.8% and the chromatin was precipitated and washed in BC100 buffer (10 mM HEPES-KOH, pH 7.9, 10% glycerol, and 100 mM KCl). The precipitate was suspended in SDS-PAGE sample buffer, boiled, and separated by SDS-PAGE. Acetylated histones were detected either by autoradiography or by immunoblotting with antibodies to specific acetylated histone marks (see KEY RESOURCES TABLE).

Quantitative Inhibition Assay for KAT8 Acetyltransferase

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
KAT8 inhibition assays were performed using the previously purified
KAT8 (173–458, 5 nM), radio-isotope-labeled [3H]Acetyl-CoA
(Perkin Elmer, 3 μM) as the acetyl donor, and biotinylated H4
peptide (Sigma-Aldrich, 2.5 μM) as a substrate in a 100 mM NaCl,
40 mM Tris·HCl (pH 7.5), and 1 mM DTT assay buffer. Purified
KAT8 was incubated with the relevant inhibitor (1% DMSO final) in
a 2-fold serial dilution starting at 200 μM for 20 min at rt.
Then, [3H]Ac-CoA and biotinylated peptide were added to
a total assay volume of 50 μL and the reaction mixture was incubated
at rt for 4 h. The reaction was stopped, and the mixture was transferred
to a 96-well streptavidin scintillant coated FlashPlate (Perkin Elmer)
and incubated for 60 min at rt. The FlashPlate was washed with 0.1%
Tween-20, and the liquid scintillation counting (MicroBeta Microplate
Counter, Perkin Elmer) was employed to measure the radioactive signal.
Experiments were performed in biological triplicates. Signal reduction
compared to control was plotted (as inhibition percentage) as a function
of compound concentration and fitted by nonlinear regression (GraphPad
Prism 8.0) finally yielding the IC50 values.

The reaction was incubated at 30°C for 30 min. The reaction product was spotted on a PVDF membrane for the liquid assay. After air drying, the membrane was washed three times with 50 mM carbonate buffer (0.5 M Na2CO3-NaHCO3, pH 9.2), followed by rinsing with acetone. The membrane was then placed in a scintillation vial, followed by the addition of a scintillation cocktail, and the radioactive signals were counted by a liquid scintillation analyzer (Tri-carb 2910TR, PerkinElmer).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HAT activity was determined using a filter-binding assay as previously described, with some modifications (Han et al., 2007a (link); Tanner et al., 1999 (link)). Samples were incubated at 30°C for 30 minutes in a 30 μl reaction mixture containing 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 5% glycerol, 0.1 mM EDTA, 50 mM KCl, 1 mM DTT, 10 mM sodium butyrate, 250 mM NaCl, 1 mM PMSF, 1.6 μM [3H]acetyl-CoA (8.6 Ci/mmol, PerkinElmer), and recombinant WT or mutant forms of AfRtt109, AfAsf1 and histones H3 and H4, as specified. 7.5 μl of each reaction were spotted onto P-81 phosphocellulose paper (Whatman), air dried, and washed five times with 50 ml of buffer containing 50 mM NaHCO3 at pH 9.0, and once with 50 ml of acetone. The amount of radioactivity of each air-dried filter paper was measured using a liquid scintillation counter. To visualize the amount of each protein and detect acetylated ones, each reaction mixture was resolved by 15% SDS-PAGE and the gels were either stained with SYPRO Ruby (BioRad) or dried and exposed to photo films after incubation with Amplify (Amersham) for 30 minutes. To detect H3K56 acetylation, HAT assays were performed as before but using unlabeled acetyl-CoA and analyzed by Western blot using antibodies recognizing acetylated H3K56.

Full-length cDNA of Br140 was cloned into vector pBacPAK8 or pBacPAK8 carrying an N-terminal His-Flag tag. Full-length cDNA of elg1 was cloned into vector pBacPAK8 carrying an N-terminal double HA tag. Purification of the recombinant Enok and Br140 from Sf21 cells was performed as described previously (Huang et al. 2014 (link)).
Short oligonucleosomes were purified from HeLa cells as described previously (Utley et al. 1997 (link)). Reconstitution of recombinant nucleosomes and in vitro HAT assay were carried out essentially as described in the previous study (Huang et al. 2014 (link)). Briefly, nucleosomes were incubated with or without recombinant Enok and/or Br140 in HAT buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl at pH 8.0, 50 mM KCl, 100 µM EDTA, 10 mM sodium butyrate, 5% glycerol, 1 mM DTT, 100 µg/mL BSA, 1 mM acetyl-CoA, 1 mM PMSF) for 2 h at 27°C. For autoradiography (Fig. 1C, bottom two panels), 0.4 µCi of 3H-acetyl-CoA (PerkinElmer) instead of 1 mM acetyl-CoA was used in 20-µL reactions, with a final concentration of 100 µM. The reactions were then adjusted using 2× SDS sample buffer to a final concentration of 1× (62.5 mM Tris-HCl at pH 6.8, 10% glycerol, 2% SDS, 0.01% bromophenol blue, 143 mM β-mercaptoethanol) and heated for 6 min at 98°C followed by Western blotting or autoradiography.

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.
