Scrambled aβ42

Manufactured by AnaSpec

Scrambled Aβ42 is a lab equipment product from AnaSpec that serves as a control peptide for amyloid-beta (Aβ) studies. It is a synthetic peptide that has the same amino acid composition as Aβ42, but with a randomized sequence, preventing it from forming the characteristic amyloid fibrils.

Soluble Aβ42 oligomers or soluble scrambled Aβ42 oligomers were prepared as described (32 (link), 104 (link)). One milligram of lyophilized human Aβ42 (Anaspec) or scrambled Aβ42 (Anaspec) was dissolved in 1 ml of 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol (Fisher Scientific) to prevent aggregation, portioned into 10-μg aliquots, air dried, and stored at −80 °C. For use in experiments, an aliquot was thawed at room temperature and then dissolved in 100% dimethyl sulfoxide, then diluted into PBS to make a 100 μM solution. The solution was incubated for 16 h at 4 °C and then diluted to a final concentration for use in experiments. The following agonists were used in this study: 1 μM PNU-120596 (Alomone Labs), 2 μM RJR-2403 Oxalate (Alomone labs), 1 μM NS-3861 (Tocris Bioscience), and 1 μM Carbamoylcholine chloride (carbachol) (Tocris Bioscience). Aβcore (YEVHHQ) and inactive Aβcore (SEVAAQ) peptides were prepared as described (43 (link)).

Soluble Aβ42 oligomers or soluble scrambled Aβ42 oligomers were prepared as previously described (32) . One mg of lyophilized human Ab42 (Anaspec) or scrambled Aβ42 (Anaspec) was dissolved in 1mL of 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP) (Fisher Scientific) to prevent aggregation, portioned into 10μg aliquots, air-dried and stored at -80°C. For use in experiments, an aliquot was thawed at room temperature, and then dissolved in 100% DMSO then diluted into PBS to make a 100μM solution. The solution was incubated for 16 hours at 4°C and then diluted to a final concentration for use in experiments. The following agonists were used in this study: 1μM PNU-120596 (Alomone labs), 2μM RJR-2403 Oxalate (Alomone labs), 1μM NS-3861 (Tocris Bioscience), and 1μM Carbamoylcholine chloride (carbachol) (Tocris Bioscience). Aβcore (YEVHHQ) and inactive Aβcore (SEVAAQ) peptides were prepared as described previously (43) .

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.
