Culturing A549 and Plat-A Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A549 cells (Korean Cell Line Bank, Seoul, Korea; 10185) were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium (Welgene, Gyeongsan, Korea) with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS; Gibco, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (Gibco). Platinum-A (Plat-A) (Cell Biolabs, San Diego, CA; RV-102) cells were grown in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (Welgene) supplemented with 10% FBS (Gibco) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin and selected by 5 μg/ml puromycin (Sigma-Aldrich) and 10 μg/mL blasticidin (Sigma-Aldrich) prior to produce retroviruses. All cells were incubated at 37°C in with 5% CO2.

Stable Overexpression of XLOC_000647

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For stable overexpression of XLOC_000647, the full-length XLOC_000647 cDNA was synthesized by GENEWIZ (Suzhou, China) and cloned into pBABE retroviral vector (RTV-001-PURO, Cell Biolabs, CA, USA), named as XLOC_000647-pBABE, which were confirmed by sequencing (BioSune, Shanghai, China). After transfection of Plat-A (Cell Biolabs) cells for 48 h, the retrovirus supernatants were collected. Retroviral particles were concentrated by using Retro-Concentin Virus Precipitation Solution (ExCell Bio, Shanghai, China) according to the manufacturer’s guidelines. Then cancer cells were infected with virus and polybrene overnight. Positive clones were screened with puromycin for 2–3 weeks to establish XLOC_000647 stable expression cell lines and corresponding negative control for further study.

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.
