NS1 and control plasmids were isolated using Qiagen Midiprep plasmid isolation kit. Bacterial culture grown overnight was harvested by centrifuging at 1900g for 20 min at 4 °C. The supernatant was discarded and the bacterial pellet was dissolved in 4 mL of buffer P1 and mixed properly. To this, 4 mL of buffer P2 was mixed thoroughly by vigorously inverting the tube four to six times and incubated at room temperature for 5 min. Finally, 4 mL of buffer P3 was mixed thoroughly by vigorously inverting the tube four to six times and incubated on ice for 15 min. The tube was centrifuged at 1900g for 30 min at 4 °C. The Qiagen midi column was equilibrated with 4 mL of buffer QBT and bacterial supernatant was loaded onto the column, and the column was allowed to empty by gravity flow. The plasmid was eluted from the column by using QF buffer. Isopropanol was used to precipitate the plasmid. Finally, plasmid was dissolved in autoclaved water. Purity and quantification of plasmid was checked using Nanodrop by measuring the absorbance ratio at 260/280 nm.

A stable knockout of ADD1 or ADD3 in H1573 and 16HBE14o cells was carried out using a CRISPR-Cas9 technology. The guide oligonucleotide sequences used for knocking out ADD1 and ADD3 are shown in the Supplemental Table 1. The guide oligonucleotides were phosphorylated, annealed and cloned into the BsmBI site of a lentiCRISPR v2 vector (Addgene, 52961) according to a published protocol [43 (link), 44 (link)], Obtained constructs were verified with sequencing. Transfer plasmids possessing annealed guide oligonucleotides were transformed into recombination-deficient Stbl3 bacteria and amplified plasmids were isolated from the bacteria using Qiagen midi prep plasmid isolation kit. Lentiviruses were produced by transfecting HEK-293T cells with the transfer lentiCRISPR v2 plasmids and packaging plasmids pLTR-G (Addgene, 17532) and pCD/NL-BH*DDD (Addgene, 17531). Viral supernatants were collected 48 and 72 h after transfection and used to infect H1573 and 16HBE14o cells. After 24 h of the infection, the lentivirus-containing medium were replaced with fresh cell culture medium containing puromycin (2 μg/ml for H1573 cells and 10 μg/ml forl6HBE14o cells) and puromycin-resistant cells were collected after 7 day selection.

Antibody Library Sequencing Protocol

Bacterial pools from panning output of AgSC and TBC libraries against antigen D were used to amplify the VH genes for NGS. The glycerol stocks of bacteria infected with the panning outputs from AgSC, and TBC libraries (1.5 ml each) were used to extract the phagemids with a midi-prep plasmid isolation kit (Qiagen, catalog no. 12943). VH genes were amplified with primers specific for the signal peptide and CH1 regions. Briefly, in a 50 µl reaction volume, 1 µl of phagemid was mixed with 1 µl 10 mM dNTPs (Invitrogen, catalog no. 18427088), 1 µl each of 10 µM forward and reverse primers, 0.5 µl of Q5 hot-start polymerase (NEB, catalog no. M0493L), 10 µl Q5 reaction buffer and 35.5 µl nuclease-free water; PCR was performed at 98 °C for 30 sec (initial denaturation) followed by 25 cycles of 98 °C for 10 sec (cycle denaturation), 72 °C for 30 sec (primer annealing), 72 °C for 30 sec (primer extension), and final extension at 72 °C for 5 min. The amplified VH gene fragments were separated on a 1% agarose gel followed by gel purification (Macherey–Nagel, catalog no. 740609). The purified VH gene fragments were sequenced by the Amplicon-EZ service (Genewiz), which provides a sequencing depth of 50,000 paired reads with 2 × 250 bp length through an Illumina Mi-Seq sequencer.

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.
