We added 20 µl of bait mixture, containing 50 µM thalidomide and 0.5 µl of biotinylated HsCRBN in AlphaScreen buffer, to 384‐well AlphaPlates using a FlexDrop Precision Reagent Dispenser (PerkinElmer). We next added 0.8 µl of FLAG‐GST‐transcription factor proteins to 384‐well AlphaPlates using a NanoHead (PerkinElmer) and a Janus Workstation (PerkinElmer). After the 384‐well AlphaPlates were incubated at 26°C for 1 h, 5 µl of detection mixture containing 0.2 µg/ml anti‐DYKDDDDK mouse mAb (FUJIFILM Wako Pure Chemical), 0.08 µl of streptavidin‐coated donor beads and 0.08 µl of protein A‐coated acceptor beads (PerkinElmer) in AlphaScreen buffer were added to each well using a FlexDrop Precision Reagent Dispenser. After incubation at 26°C for 1 h, luminescent signals were detected using an EnVision plate reader (PerkinElmer).

High-Throughput Protein Interaction Screening

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All AlphaScreen reactions were conducted in AlphaPlate 384 titer plates (PerkinElmer). 20 ml of solution containing 0.5 μl of a biotin-tagged bait protein and 19.5 μl of the AlphaScreen buffer was dispensed into reaction plate by using automated multichannel pipet Viaflo and Viaflo Assist system (Integra). Next, 1 μl of each FLAG-GST tagged protein array protein was transferred from 384-well stock plate to the reaction plate using Janus automated dispensing workstation (PerkinElmer) and Nanohead, a 384-well micro syringe head (PerkinElmer). Then 9 μl of detection mixture containing 0.02 μl of anti-DYKDDDDK tag monoclonal antibody (Wako), 0.06 μl of streptavidin-conjugated AlphaScreen donor beads and 0.06 μl of protein A–conjugated AlphaScreen acceptor beads (PerkinElmer) in the AlphaScreen buffer were added to the reaction plates using FlexDrop dropper. After incubation at 25°C for 1 h in a dark incubator, AlphaScreen signal was detected by Envision multilabel reader (PerkinElmer).

High-throughput drug screening in cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
High throughput drug screening was performed by the high throughput screening facility at the Columbia Genome Center. Briefly, we seeded cells into 384 well microplates at a concentration of 4000 cells per well in 50 μL of RPMI media supplemented with 10% FBS. The next day, we delivered compounds using an automated liquid handling station (Cell::Explorer, Perkin Elmer). We transferred compounds in triplicate (1 μM, DMSO) to assay plates using nano-head (Perkin Elmer). After 72 hours, we performed a cell viability assay using Cell Titer Glo reagent (Promega #G7573).
For data normalization, we used Pipeline Pilot Lab Analytics 17.1.0 and Chemistry 17.1.0 Collections. We used the Percent of Positive Control (PPC) normalization component where each well is expressed as a percentage of the average of the DMSO-only wells in the same plate.

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.
