B cells were eluted from PBMCs using a MACS Human B Cell isolation kit (Miltenyi Biotec). B cells were stained with rGP38 (IbAr10200) that had been tetramerized at 25 nM using Streptactin-PE (IBA Lifesciences) and Streptactin-APC (IBA Lifesciences). B cells were simultaneously stained with rGP38-Streptactin-PE and rGP38-Streptactin-APC tetramers for 1 hour on ice. Cells were washed twice in buffer (PBS, FBS, EDTA). Next, B cells were stained with a panel of antibodies. Donor 1 PBMCs were stained with a cocktail of anti-human CD3 PerCP-Cy5.5 (Biolegend), CD8 PerCP-Cy5.5 (Biolegend), CD14 PerCP-Cy5.5 (Invitrogen), CD16 PerCP-Cy5.5 (Biolegend), propidium iodide (PI) (Invitrogen), CD19 PE-Cy7 (Biolegend), CD27 BV510 (BD Biosciences), IgM BV711 (BD Biosciences), IgD BV421 (Biolegend), IgG BV605 (BD Biosciences), and IgA AF488 (Abcam). Donor 5 and 6 PBMCs were stained with a cocktail of anti-human CD3 PerCP-Cy5.5 (Biolegend), CD8 PerCP-Cy5.5 (Biolegend), CD14 PerCP-Cy5.5 (Invitrogen), CD16 PerCP-Cy5.5 (Biolegend), PI (Invitrogen), CD19 PE-Cy7 (Biolegend), CD20 PE-Cy7 (Biolegend), CD27 BV510 (BD Biosciences), IgM AF488 (Biolegend), and IgD BV421 (Biolegend). B cells were washed twice in buffer and run on a FACS Aria Fusion Cytometer (BD Biosciences). B cells were sorted into Super Script III reaction buffer (ThermoFisher Scientific) in 96-well Costar plates and frozen at −80 °C.

Transfected cells were sorted for HDR + by staining for StrepTactin-APC 1:100 (IBA lifesciences, Cat: 6-5010-001) and anti-hIgG : AF488 1:100 (Jackson ImmunoResearch, Cat: 109-545-003). Enriched cells were then selected for antigen binding by incubating with SARS-CoV-2 S1-mFc 1:75 (Sinobiological, Cat: 40591-V05H1), S2-mFc 1:75 (Sinobiological, Cat: 40,590-V05B) on ice for 20 min, followed by a single wash and a secondary staining with anti-mFc IgG1: PE and/or APC [clone RMG1-1] at 1:100 (Biolegend, Cat: 406,608/406,610). After enrichment for S1, cells were also tested for binding to SARS-CoV-2 RBD-mFc 1:375 (Sinobiological, Cat: 40,592-V05H), and the same secondary staining. FACS was analyzed using FlowJo X software. At least 20′000 live events were acquired per sample to ensure sufficient statistical sampling.

Generation of MHC Streptamers for Cell Staining

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Generation of MHC Streptamers was performed as previously described [19 (link), 26 (link)]. In brief, inclusion body-derived recombinant MHC heavy chain was urea-denatured and refolded in the presence of peptide and β2 microglobulin. Complexes were purified by fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC). Multimerization was performed with Strep-Tactin® PE (cell staining; IBA Lifesciences, Goettingen, Germany), Strep-Tactin® APC (cell staining; IBA Lifesciences) or Strep-Tactin® magnetic beads (cell isolation; IBA Lifesciences). The following MHC Streptamers were used: HLA-B*07:02/pp65417-427 (TPRVTGGGAM), HLA-C*07:02/IE-1309−317 (CRVLCCYVL) and HLA-C*07:02/MAGE-A12170-178 (VRIGHLYIL).

Competitive Binding Analysis of hMPV Antibodies

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Competitive binning experiments were performed by evaluating IgG binding to hMPV F in the presence and absence of pre-complexed competitor Fab, as previously described (Fels et al., 2021) (link). Briefly, hMPV preF A1 (25 nM) was complexed with competitor Fab (0.5 mM) for 30 min on ice. The antigen-Fab complex was then incubated for 5 min with yeast expressing anti-hMPV IgG. After washing with PBSF to remove unbound antigen, the bound antigen was detected using Strep-Tactin APC (IBA Lifesciences, catalog no. 6-5010-001) and antibody light chain was detected using Goat F(ab')2 anti-human kappa FITC (SouthernBiotech, catalog no. 2062-02) and Goat F(ab')2 anti-human lambda FITC (SouthernBiotech, catalog no. 2072-02) . The samples were analyzed by flow cytometry using a FACSCanto II (BD Biosciences). For mAbs that displayed detectable binding to hMPV preF A1 in the absence of a competitor Fab, competitive binding was evaluated based on the fold reduction in antigen binding observed in the presence of the competitor Fabs. Fold-reductions greater than 4-fold were classified as competitive binding.

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.
