Quantifying MX2 Protein Localization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HeLa cells were transduced with puromycinR constructs bearing Flag-tagged wild-type or mutant MX2 cDNAs. Forty-eight h after transduction, stably expressing cells were selected with 1 μg/mL puromycin for 72 h and seeded onto coverslips at ~50,000 cells per well in 24-well plates; 24 h later, cells were washed with 1× phosphate buffer saline and fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde (EM Sciences) for 15 min. Cell membrane permeabilization was achieved by incubation with 0.2% Triton X-100 for 15 min. Then, the coverslips were blocked with NGB buffer (50 mM NH4Cl, 2% goat serum, 2% bovine serum albumin) for 1 h. MX2-Flag proteins were detected using anti-Flag monoclonal M2 and secondary antibody conjugated to Alexa 594 (Invitrogen, A21203). Endogenous NUP358 was detected using rabbit anti-NUP358 antibody (Abcam, ab64276) and secondary antibody conjugated to Alexa 488 (Invitrogen, A21206). The nuclei were labeled using DAPI (4’,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole) staining (0.1 mg/mL for 5 min). Cells were visualized using a Nikon A1 point-scanning laser confocal microscope (Nikon Instruments). Quantification of the nuclear envelope accumulation of wild-type or mutant MX2 proteins was calculated as the percentage of total protein colocalizing with NUP358, using Manders’ coefficient.

Immunoblotting Assay for TRIM5 and Capsid Detection

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Dunni cells stably expressing HA-tagged TRIM5 variants were lysed in 100 mM NaCl, 50 mM Tris (pH 7.5) and 1% Triton X-100 containing protease inhibitors (Sigma-Aldrich). Proteins were separated on a 10% acrylamide gel, transferred onto PVDF membrane and probed with a rat anti-HA antibody (3F10, Roche Applied Science). A peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-rat (SouthernBiotech) was used as secondary antibody. Loading was controlled by probing with a β-actin antibody. For CA detection, conditioned cell-free supernatants of transfected HEK-293T cells were pelleted through a 20% sucrose layer in TEN buffer (10 mM Tris.HCl pH7.5; 100 mM NaCl; 1 mM EDTA) at 25000 rpm for 2h30 at 4 °C in a SW 40 Ti rotor. Pelleted viruses were probed for CA content using sera from HIV-2 infected patients and anti-human-IgG-HRP IgG (Sigma-Aldrich) as primary and secondary antibodies, respectively.
Protein depletion by shRNA in Jurkat cells was monitored by immunoblotting using a rabbit polyclonal antibody against Nup358/RanBP2 (ab64276, Abcam) and mouse Nup153 antibodies (ab24700, Abcam) with a peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-rabbit and anti-mouse as secondary antibodies, respectively (Sigma-Aldrich). Lamin-B was used as a loading control.

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.
