Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A chimeric recombinant hemagglutinin (cHA) protein, composed of an H6 head and an H1 stalk (cH6/1) was produced as previously described (33 (link)). For use as a positive control in all the Fc assays, plasma was pooled from 5 healthy donors with high HA stalk IgG titers. From this pooled plasma IgG was isolated using Protein G (Pierce Biotechnology), according to the manufacturer’s instructions and confirmed by IgG enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). A cross-reactive HA stalk antibody CR9114 that mediates potent Fc effector function was expressed as a positive control (34 (link)). For antibody expression, plasmids encoding heavy or light chain genes were co-transfected into HEK293F cells with PEI-MAX 40,000 (Polysciences) head-to-head. Cells were cultured for six days in 293F Freestyle media at 37°C, 10% CO2, then harvested supernatants were filtered and purified using Protein G (Thermo Scientific). Antibody concentration was quantified by nanodrop using sequence-specific extinction coefficients as determined by ProtParam (ExPASy) and confirmed by ELISA.

Total glycoproteins in 15 μl plasma were fractionated into three groups using affinity columns: 1.) immunoglobulins (IgG), 2.) transferrin and 3.) the remaining glycoproteins depleted of IgG, transferrin and albumin using a protein G (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA), followed with an IgG plus albumin duo depletion spin column (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and an anti-transferrin affinity spin column as described previously.14 (link) Purified IgG was eluted from the initial protein G column and purified transferrin was eluted from anti-transferrin affinity column. The remaining glycoprotein fraction was collected after passing plasma through a protein G column, IgG plus albumin duo depletion column and an anti-transferrin affinity column sequentially. The purity of intact proteins in each fraction was evaluated by Ultra High-Pressure Liquid Chromatography Electrospray ionization-Quadrupole Time of Flight (UPLC-ESI-QTOF) Mass Spectrometry analysis using a SYNAPT G2-Si system from Waters Corporation (Plymouth Meeting, PA, USA). No cross contamination of glycoproteins in each fraction was detected. Each fraction is lyophilized and resuspended in 30 μl water. N-glycan from 50–60 μg of IgG, 15–20 μg transferrin and 50–60 μg remaining glycoproteins were used for N-glycan analysis respectively.

For adhesion of neutrophils to immobilized E-selectin in combine with ICAM-1 under flow, a laminar flow chamber slide (μ-Slide I0.8 Luer, ibidi, Martinsried, Germany) was filled with protein G (25 μg/mL; Invitrogen, USA) overnight. After washing with phosphate-buffered saline, the slide was filled with E-selectin (5 μg/mL; R&D system, USA) and ICAM-1 (5 μg/mL; R&D system, USA) for 2 hours and blocked with 1% bovine serum albumin (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) for 1 hour. Freshly isolated human neutrophils (5x105 cells) were preincubated without or with IND02 at RT for 1 hour, followed by perfusion at a constant flow rate of 1 dynes/cm2. The number of adherent cells (stationary over 5 seconds) was determined after 3 minutes of perfusion. The shear flow was generated by using the perfusion loop system and an air pressure pump (ibidi, Martinsried, Germany), and the images were captured by the microscope. The number of adherent cells was calculated in 10–15 random fields in a single experiment and the statistical test was calculated from 3 experiments.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The ChIP procedure was performed as described with minor modifications. One gram of closed buds from tdf1 gTDF1pro:TDF1-GFP complemented plants frozen in liquid nitrogen was crosslinked in 0.4 M sucrose-1% (v/v) formaldehyde buffer. Nuclei were isolated with extraction buffer and lysed with lysis buffer. The chromatin was sheared with sonication, resulting in most DNA fragments having a size between 200 and 800 bp. After pre-absorption using pre-immune serum with sheared salmon sperm DNA/protein A agarose mix (Millipore, USA) for 1 h, the DNA–protein complex was immunoprecipitated at 4 °C overnight using an anti-GFP monoclonal antibody (Millipore, USA) (1:100 dilution). Seventy microliters of magnetic beads coupled with protein G (Invitrogen, USA) were added to precipitate the antibody–protein/DNA complexes. After washing, the samples were incubated at 65 °C overnight to reverse the crosslinking. The co-precipitated DNA was purified and analyzed by qPCR as described above. Under the same conditions, the ΔCt values (Ct of each sample—Ct of the No antibody control) were calculated and reported 2−ΔCt as the fold enrichment. Primer sequences are listed in Supplemental Data Set S1.

ChIP-seq is a method used to analyze protein interactions with DNA. ChIP-seq combines with massively parallel DNA sequencing to identify the binding sites of DNA-associated proteins. 106 differentiated cells from Day 26, Day 39, and Day 55 stages were cross-linked using 1% formaldehyde. The lysate with sodium dodecyl sulfate-based reagents and chromatin was sonicated for 18 cycles (60 s On, 60 s Off) using Bioruptor. The sonicated samples were immunoprecipitated using magnetic beads 25 μL protein A (Invitrogen cat.10002D) and 25 μL protein G (Invitrogen cat.10004D). The samples were reverse crosslinked using Proteinase K overnight at 650°C. The sonicated fragments were 300-500bp in size. The DNA fragments were purified using the phenol-chloroform protocol. ChIP was performed using antibodies against H3K27ac (Abcam Ab4729) and H3K27me3 (Abcam Ab4729). Prepared libraries from ChIP and input DNA were sequenced using the HiSeq instrument (Illumina, United States). The ChIP libraries were analyzed and mapped to hg19 using BWA (Li and Durbin, 2009 (link)) and peaks were called using MACS (Zhang et al., 2008 (link)).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To determine the interaction between nHtt or mHtt with Hsp90, lysates from differentiated SH-SY5Y cells were transiently transfected with expression vectors of green fluorescent proteins (GFPs), GFP-480-68Q or GFP-480-17Q (control) for 15 h. Cells were prepared in lysis buffer and subjected to immunoprecipitation (IP) with anti-Hsp90α antibody (Abcam, AB133491) or anti-HA antibody (Sigma, H9658) as a control; then, the membrane was blotted with Htt antibody. To determine whether Hsp90α is associated with REST, differentiated SH-SY5Y cells were prepared in a lysis buffer containing HEPES (20 mM, pH 7.6), NaCl (150 mM), glycerol (2.5%), Nonidet P-40 (1%), EDTA (13.4 mM), EGTA (2 mM), NaF (50 mM), Na3VO4 (1mM), phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (1 mM), and a protease inhibitor cocktail. Lysates were subjected to immunoprecipitation with 2.5 μg of anti-REST, anti-Hsp90α, or nonimmune anti-HA antibody for 20 h at 4°C. Cells were then added with protein G (Invitrogen, 15920–010), incubated for 4 h, washed twice with lysis buffer without Nonidet P-40, and eluted with SDS-PAGE sample loading buffer. Immunoprecipitates were subjected to SDS-PAGE analysis followed by Western blot analysis with anti-Htt, anti-REST, or anti-Hsp90.
