DSF was performed essentially as described60 (link), each 20 μl reaction containing 3 μg of glycerol-free purified recombinant fungal NAT protein, or protein with 0.4 mM acyl-CoA (acetyl-, n-propionyl-, malonyl- or succinyl-CoA). Reactions were performed in duplicate, with SyproOrange (Invitrogen) in 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 0.5% v/v dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO). Fluorescence was monitored on a 7500 real-time thermocycler (Applied Biosystems), and the generated sigmoid curves were fitted to the Boltzmann equation to accurately calculate Tm values. Tm peaks of proteins were determined via calculation of the derivative of generated thermal profiles for each set of conditions. Data analysis was performed using software OriginPro 8 SR0 (OriginLab).

For quantitative analysis of lung metastases, lungs dissected from mice bearing mammary tumors were snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen and pulverized into a fine powder. DNA was extracted using an NaCl-Tris-EDTA buffer (100 mM NaCl, 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 1 mM EDTA) containing 20 μg/ml proteinase K and purified by two phenol/chloroform (1:1 vol/vol) extractions followed by ethanol precipitation. The ratio of cancer cells to normal cells was quantified by measuring the neomycin resistance gene (neor) DNA levels versus the vimentin DNA loading control, as described previously [29 (link)]. TaqMan PCR was performed on an Applied Biosystems 7500 real-time thermocycler (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Foster City, CA, USA). Probe and primer sequences are listed in Additional file 1: Table S1. The cycling conditions were as follows: 50 °C for 5 minutes, 95 °C for 2 minutes, then 40 cycles of 95 °C for 1 minute and 60 °C for 45 seconds. Fluorescence was measured every cycle after the annealing step, and Ct values were calculated. The data were analyzed using the 2−ΔΔCt method [30 (link)].

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.
