SILAC-based Proteomics of Endometrial Cancer

For SILAC experiments, human endometrial cancer cells Ishikawa were cultured in DMEM/F12 media deficient in L-arginine and L-lysine and supplemented with 10% dialyzed fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Sigma-Aldrich), penicillin, streptomycin, and L-glutamine (Invitrogen) and either L-arginine (Arg-0) and L-lysine (Lys-0), L-arginine [13C6]HCl (Arg-6) and L-lysine-4,4,5,5-d4 (Lys-4), or [13C6, 15N4]HCl (Arg-10) and L-lysine [13C6,15N2]HCl (Lys-8) (Sigma-Aldrich) for 14 days (10 doublings). All media were supplemented with L-proline to prevent the conversion of arginine to proline38 (link). Specifically, isogenic cell lines expressing either vector control (C), wild type SPOP (SPOP-WT) or mutants (MTs) were isotopically labeled with SILAC media and grouped into four experiments (Supplementary Fig. 1d). Each experiment included a cell line with over-expression of SPOP-WT for cell line comparison within and across experiments. The labeling for this cell line was switched to rule out labeling artifacts in the first three experiments. Approximately 100 million cells per condition were washed twice with PBS, harvested, and snap frozen.

SILAC Proteomic Analysis of HeLa Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HeLa cells were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM) already including 1% glutamine and supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Life Technologies), penicillin (100 U/ml), and streptomycin (100 mg/ml). Cells were cultured at 37°C in a 5% CO2 humidified atmosphere. The cells were tested free of mycoplasma contamination. MS023 was purchased from Cayman chemicals; GSK591 was purchased from Sigma Aldrich. Both MS023 (10 µM) and GSK591 (5 µM) were used for 48 h treatment, together with DMSO as control. For triple SILAC, HeLa were grown in ‘‘Light’’, ‘‘Medium’’ and ‘‘Heavy’’ SILAC DMEM (Thermo Fisher Scientific), supplemented with either L-Arginine, L-Lysine or their medium (Arg6: Sigma-Aldrich; Lys4: Sigma-Aldrich) or heavy (Arg10: Sigma-Aldrich; Lys8: Sigma-Aldrich) isotope-counterparts. Arginine and Lysine were added at a concentration of 84 mg/L and 146 mg/L, respectively. SILAC media were supplemented with 10% dialyzed FBS (GIBCO, Life Technologies), 100 U/ml Penicillin and 100 mg/ml Streptomycin. HeLa cells were grown in the respective heavy-isotopes containing media for at least 9 replication cycles, to ensure full incorporation of isotope-encoded amino acids, with a careful monitoring of growth rate, viability and overall morphology, to guarantee that normal cell physiology was preserved.

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.
