Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Activity was determined by coupling the KDPG formation to the oxidation of NADH via KD(P)G aldolase (KD(P)GA) from Sulfolobus acidocaldarius (Saci_0225) and L-lactate dehydrogenase (rabbit muscle, Sigma-Aldrich). The KD(P)GA was obtained by PCR amplification of the encoding gene (saci_0225) from genomic DNA of S. acidocaldarius DSM639 using the primers: fd_NdeI: 5′-AAACATATGATGGAAATAATTTCACCTATCATTACA, rv_ BamHI: 5′-AAAGGATCCTTAATGTACCAGTTCTTGAATCTT TCT. The restricted PCR product was cloned into pET11c (Novagen). For protein expression and purification conditions refer to Wolterink-van Loo et al. (2007) (link). The KD(P)GA after heat treatment was used as auxiliary enzyme for the characterization of CcEDD. The assay mixtures (0.5 ml) contained 100 mM HEPES buffer pH 8.0, 0.2 mM NADH, 0.675 μg purified CcEDD, 3 U L-lactate dehydrogenase (rabbit muscle, Sigma-Aldrich) and 50 μg Saci KD(P)GA-aldolase. After 2 min preincubation at 37°C 6PG was added to start the reaction and the oxidation of NADH to NAD+ was followed in a Specord 210 Photometer at 340 nm (Analytik Jena, ε(NADH) = 6.22 mM–1cm–1). All measurements were performed in triplicates.

Kinetic Analysis of Actin-Activated ATPase

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The actin-activated ATPase activity of all PfMyoA constructs was determined at 30 °C in 10 mM imidazole pH 7.5, 5 mM KCl, 1 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 1 mM DTT, and 1 mM NaN3 as a function of skeletal actin concentration. The salt concentration was kept low (5 mM) to minimize Km values and reach Vmax with actin concentrations that are compatible with this assay. Actin-activated ATPase activity was determined using a linked assay, which couples the regeneration of hydrolyzed ATP to the oxidation of NADH to NAD+. Pyruvate kinase (Sigma), in the presence of phophoenolpyruvate (Sigma) and low ADP concentrations, regenerates ATP. In a subsequent reaction, pyruvate is converted to lactate by L-lactate dehydrogenase (Sigma) which oxidizes NADH (Sigma) to NAD+. The decrease in optical density at 340 nm as a function of time was measured on a Lambda 25 UV/VIS spectrophotometer (Perkin Elmer), with a 300 s data monitoring window sampled every 2 s. Data were fit to the Michaelis–Menten equation.

The ATPase assay was performed using the two enzyme coupling method as follows. The two enzymes, pyruvate kinase and l-lactate dehydrogenase (from Sigma) were added to the 200 μl reaction buffer system with final concentration as 100 units/ml and 200 units/ml respectively. Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP, from SIGMA) and NADH were also added as co-factors for enzyme coupling. 20 nM Nsp13 was incubated with a ssDNA in a buffer containing 50 mM MOPS pH 7.0, 10 mM MgCl2 and 50 mM NaCl for 5 min. Varying concentrations of ATP were then added to initiate the reaction and the OD340 nm value of NADH was measured using the Perkin-Elmer Envision. The Km value was calculated using GraphPad Prism.

The rate was determined in three replicates as the change in absorbance at 340 nm using a Cary 100 spectrophotometer with Peltier temperature control at 25°C. MgATP concentration was determined by the Maxchelator program MgATP calculator v1.3 using constants from NIST database #46 v8 (UC Davis Health).

Kinase activity was estimated by a linked spectrophotometric assay that uses pyruvate kinase and L-lactate dehydrogenase as auxiliary enzymes to monitor the conversion of ATP to ADP with an observable decrease in the absorption of NADH at 340 nm36 (link). 100 μL of the reaction mixture contained 2 μg MtbMaK, 10 mM MgCl2, 1.5 mM ATP, and 5 mM maltose suspended in a buffer made up of 20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl. 3 U of pyruvate kinase, 3 U of L-lactate dehydrogenase, 0.3 mM NADH and 2.5 mM phosphoenolpyruvate (all from Sigma-Aldrich), were added and the mixture incubated at 37°C for 30 min. The change in A340nm value was measured using a VarioshanFlash spectrophotometer (Thermo Scientific) over the course of the incubation period. The velocity of formation of the product ADP was calculated. The Km value of MtbMaK for maltose was determined from the Lineweaver-Burk plot constructed by measuring enzyme activity using different concentrations of the substrate.

Measuring Lactate Secretion in Cancer Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The amount of lactate the cancer cells secreted into the culture medium was measured using an enzymatic assay using L-lactate dehydrogenase (Sigma). In this assay, the lactate secreted into the culture medium sample is reduced to pyruvate and NADH in the presence of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (Sigma) and excess NAD. The amount of NADH formed in the reaction, measured by the change in absorbance at 340 nm, is proportional to the concentration of lactate present in the sample. To avoid interference with the LDH that may already be present in the serum used to supplement the culture medium, the samples were subjected to deproteinization with 8% trichloroacetic acid (TCA) to render them protein-free prior to the assay.

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.
