Auxin-Induced Lifespan Modulation in C. elegans

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Auxin plates were prepared by adding auxin indole‐3‐acetic acid (Sigma‐Aldrich) from a 400 mM stock solution in ethanol into NGM at the final concentration of 1 mM (Zhang et al., 2015 (link)). For control ethanol plates, the same volume of ethanol was added to NGM. Animals were transferred on auxin or ethanol plates at the L4 stage except for dauer tests for which eggs were laid and grown on auxin or ethanol plates.
For all aging cohorts, 20 μM 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU, Sigma‐Aldrich) was added to prevent progeny growth. Animals were transferred weekly to fresh plates, without 5‐FU after 2 weeks. The day of transition to L4 is counted as day 0 of adulthood for the cohort.

Bacterial Co-Inoculation Effects on Soybean

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Bacterial cell preparation was carried out as described in Section 2.1. Leonard’s jar experiments were performed as described in Section 2.2. The experiment was conducted to evaluate the co-inoculation effects of USDA110 with S141 or plant growth hormone on soybean. The seedlings were inoculated separately with 1 mL of 106 CFU mL−1 of S141 or USDA110 for the single inoculation and mixed in a ratio of 1:1 for co-inoculation treatment. The cell suspension was replaced by sterilized distilled water in the control treatment. The plants were watered regularly with N-free nutrient solution during the experiment [30 (link)]. When necessary, the N-free nutrient solution was supplemented with appropriate plant growth hormones: 1 μg mL−1 cytokinin (6-Benzylaminopurine (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) [32 ] and 10 μg mL−1 auxin (Indole-3-Acetic Acid (Sigma-Aldrich) [33 (link),34 (link)]. Plant growth conditions in the laboratory were as described in Section 2.2.

Tissue-specific protein degradation dynamics

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Auxin plates were prepared by adding auxin indole-3-acetic acid (Sigma-Aldrich) from a 400-mM stock solution in ethanol into NGM at the final concentration of 1 mM (Zhang et al., 2015 (link)). Tissue-specific degradation efficiency was monitored on an animal expressing GFP fused to the AID under the ubiquitous promoter Peft-3 and Prab-3::TIR1-TagBFP, Peft-3::TIR1-TagBFP, Pdpy-7::TIR1-TagBFP, or Pmyo-3::TIR1-TagBFP. Animals were grown on regular or auxin plates for 3, 36, 96, and 120 h, respectively. SDN-1-AID-mNG fluorescence was scored after tissue-specific degradation on young adult animals that had hatched on regular or auxin plates.

Detailed Protocols for Cell Culture Treatments

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Treatments were generally carried out in log-phase cultures at OD ~0.4–0.6, depending on the length of treatment, such that cultures remained in log growth during the course of the experiment. For drugs dissolved in DMSO, vehicle-only controls contained the same final volume of DMSO. Auxin (indole-3-acetic acid, Sigma-Aldrich) was prepared fresh daily at 100 mM in ethanol and added at a final concentration of 100 µM. Diazaborine (DZA, Calbiochem) was prepared at 15 mg/ml in DMSO (stored at −20°C, protected from light) and used at the indicated concentration. Cycloheximide (Sigma-Aldrich) was purchased as a 100 mg/ml DMSO stock and added at a final concentration of 100 µg/ml (for sucrose gradients) or 200 µg/ml (for stress experiments). AZC (L-azetidine-2-carboxylic acid, Sigma-Aldrich) was prepared at 1 M in water and used at the indicated concentration. Diamide (Sigma-Aldrich) was prepared at 1 M in water and added at a final concentration of 1.5 mM. Rapamycin (LC Laboratories) was prepared fresh daily in ethanol and used at a final concentration of 200 ng/ml (to inhibit r-protein synthesis) or 1 µg/ml (for anchor-away, in a Rapamycin-resistant tor1-1 background). Beta-estradiol (Sigma-Aldrich) was prepared as a 1000X stock for each experiment in ethanol and added to the indicated final concentration.

Antibodies used for immunoblotting and indirect immunofluorescence analysis were: rabbit anti-SMC2 (1:500) (Saitoh et al., 1994 (link)), guinea pig anti-GgTopo 2α (1:1000) (Earnshaw et al., 1985 (link)), rabbit anti-GgCENP-T (1:1000) (Hori et al., 2008b (link)), and rabbit anti-MAD2 (1:100, gift of Tatsuo Fukagawa, Graduate School of Frontier Biosciences, Osaka University, Japan), rabbit-anti GgcyclinB2 (gift of Eric Nigg, retired from Biozentrum, University of Basel, Switzerland), mouse anti-α-tubulin DM1A (1:1000, lot no. 066M4870V, Sigma-Aldrich), mouse anti-Cdk1 monoclonal A17 (1:200–1:500, lot no. GR133813-4, Abcam), and rabbit anti- phospho-histone H3 (Ser 10) (D2C8) (1:1600, lot no. 3, Cell Signaling Technology).
Nocodazole dissolved in DMSO was added to a final concentration of 0.5 µg/ml (Sigma-Aldrich). Doxycycline dissolved in water was added to a final concentration of 0.5 µg/ml (BD) unless stated otherwise. 1NMPP1 dissolved in DMSO was added to a final concentration of 2 µM. Indole-3-acetic acid (auxin) dissolved in ethanol was added to a final concentration of 125 µM unless stated otherwise (Fluka, Sigma-Aldrich).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HCT-116 cells were cultured in McCoy’s 5A medium supplemented with 10% FBS, 2 mM L-glutamine, 100 U/ml penicillin, and 100 μg/ml streptomycin at 37°C with 5% CO2. The following siRNAs (Dharmacon) were used: Non-targeting control, NIPBL, WAPL, CTCF. siRNA sequences can be found in Supplementary Table 2. Duplex siRNA were incubated for 20 minutes at room temperature with RNAiMAX transfection reagent (Thermo Fisher) in Opti-MEM reduced serum medium (Thermo Fisher) and seeded into wells. HCT-116 were trypsinized and resuspended in antibiotic-free medium, then plated with medium containing siRNA for a final siRNA concentration of 50 nM (non-targeting control, NIPBL, or WAPL) or 150 nM (CTCF). For CTCF knockdowns, cells were retreated with 150nM CTCF siRNAs 24 hours after initial treatment. After 72 h (NIPBL, WAPL, non-targeting control) or 96 h from the initial RNAi treatment (CTCF), cells were harvested for experiments. For the CTCF and RAD21 double-knockdown experiments, cells were grown in medium supplemented with 500 μM indole-3-acetic acid (auxin; Sigma-Aldrich I5148) for 6 hours following RNAi treatments, and then harvested for experiments.

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.
