Linearized pGEMT-MT1DP was used as the template for MT1DP transcription, and MT1DP RNAs were then produced through in vitro transcription using Ambion mMESSAGE mMACHINE T7 Transcription Kit following the manufacturer’s instructions (Invitrogen). MT1DP RNAs were labeled with biotin, and proteins were pulled down from cell lysates using a RNA-Protein Pull-Down kit on the basis of manufacturer’s instructions (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA). RNA-pulled down proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE, and then differentially presented bands were analyzed by MS at Beijing Protein Institute.

Heterologous Expression of nAChR Subunits in Xenopus Oocytes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The plasmids containing different kinds of nAChR subunits were transferred into DH5α competent cells, then they were extracted and digested with the appropriate restriction enzymes. The linearized DNA templates were purified, and their concentration and purity were determined by the gel electrophoresis method. The Invitrogen™ Ambion™ mMESSAGE mMACHINE™ T7 Transcription Kit was used for transcription, and the transcribed RNA was purified to obtain the final cRNA. RNA concentration and purity were assessed using the gel electrophoresis method. The pre-prepared RNAs of different subunits were mixed and injected into Xenopus laevis oocytes as described previously [40 (link)]. After injection, oocytes were cultured in ND96 solution (96 mmol/L NaCl, 2 mmol/L KCl, 1.8 mmol/L CaCl2, 1 mmol/L MgCl2, 5 mmol/L HEPES, pH 7.1–7.7) containing 1% penicillin (10 μg/mL), 1% streptomycin (10 μg/mL), 1% gentamicin (100 μg/mL) at 17 °C for 2–5 days, then the currents were detected by the TEVC. In this experiment, the animal assay was in accordance with the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals and approved by the Ethics Committee of Hainan University.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To rescue s741 phenotypes using WT furinb mRNA, a full‐length furinb complementary DNA (cDNA) was amplified by PCR from WT total cDNA and inserted into the RNA synthesis plasmid pCS2+. Sense RNA was synthesized using the Ambion mMessage mMachine T7 transcription kit (Invitrogen). A total of 20–50 pg of capped furinb RNA was injected into the yolk of embryos from s741 heterozygotes incrosses at the 1–4 cell stage. The injected larvae were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde at 96 hpf and genotyped by PCR.
The Tg(Tp1:wt‐furinb‐EGFP), Tg(Tp1:s741‐furinb‐EGFP), Tg(fabp10a:wt‐furinb‐GFP), and Tg(fabp10a:s741‐furinb‐EGFP) transgenic constructs were generated using the multisite gateway‐based Tol2kit.[19]

To rescue s741 phenotypes using WT furinb mRNA, a full-length furinb cDNA was amplified by PCR from WT total cDNA and inserted into the RNA synthesis plasmid pCS2+. Sense RNA was synthesized from the XhoI-linearized plasmid using the Ambion mMessage mMachine T7 transcription kit (Invitrogen). 20-50 pg of capped furinb RNA was injected into the yolk of embryos from s741 heterozygotes incrosses at the 1-4 cell stage. The injected larvae were fixed in 4% PFA at 96 hpf and genotyped by PCR.
The Tg(Tp1:wt-furinb-EGFP) and Tg(Tp1:s741-furinb-EGFP) transgenic constructs were generated using the multisite gateway-based Tol2kit (Kwan et al., 2007) . The constructs were individually injected into the 10 WT Tg(Tp1:ras-mCherry) embryos at the one-cell stage and imaged live using confocal at 120 hpf.

Gene constructs were generated and used as described in ref. 23 (link); see supplementary information for sequence details. Standard site-directed mutagenesis was performed using PCR, and deletions were created using the Q5 site-directed mutagenesis kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The complementary DNA was linearized and transcribed into complementary RNA (cRNA) for oocyte microinjection using the Ambion mMESSAGE mMACHINE T7 Transcription Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific).
All chemicals were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich, Iris Biotech, Rapp polymere, Combi-Blocks and Chem-Impex unless specified otherwise.

Substances were dissolved in ND96 solution (see Two-Electrode Voltage Clamp Recordings section below for composition) and diluted to the specified concentrations, and the pH value was adjusted to 7.4. The prepared solutions were then stored at room temperature and used for no longer than 20 d.

Female Xenopus laevis were anesthetized using 0.1% Tricaine methanesulfonate (MS222, Sigma) dissolved in 0.1% NaHCO3 and maintained on ice. Defolliculated oocytes were harvested from ovaries by shaking incubation in Ca 2+ -free OR-2 solution (in mM: 85 NaCl, 1 MgCl2, 5 Hepes, pH 7.6, with KOH) containing 5 mg mL– 1 collagenase (type A, Roche).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A Xenopus oocyte expression vector, pNCB1 (GenBank accession number MF984401), was constructed based on pGEMHE [32 (link)], which contains a T7 promoter, β-globin 5′-UTR, multiple cloning sites, β-globin 3′-UTR, and a poly-A sequence. Native CM2 [Locus, YP_089658.1 (C/Ann Arbor/1/50)] and native and modified DM2 [Locus, AFJ19025 ((D/Swine/Oklahoma/1334/2011)] were synthesized by adding sequences corresponding to a restriction enzyme site immediately before and after the coding sequence and were cloned into pNCB1. BamHI and XbaI were used for 5′ and 3′ ends, except in the case of CM2 (SmaI was used at the 5′ end). DNA was prepared by GenScript (Piscataway, NJ, USA). Before mRNA preparation, pNCB plasmid clones were linearized by HindIII and recovered by ethanol precipitation using half volume of 5 M ammonium acetate and two volumes of 100% ethanol. Invitrogen Ambion mMESSAGE mMACHINE T7 Transcription Kit (Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA, USA) was used for mRNA synthesis. mRNA was recovered by LiCl precipitation and dissolved into PBS comprising 137 mM NaCl, 2.7 mM KCl, and 1.8 mM Na2HPO4. mRNA was stored in −20°C.

Protein expression in Xenopus oocytes was carried out as previously described [83, 84] . In brief, cDNA coding for human CAIX, rat MCT1, rat MCT2, rat MCT4, rat CD147-WT or a mutant of the protein, as well as rat GP70-WT or mutant, all cloned into the Xenopus expression vector pGEM-He-Juel, was transcribed in vitro using the Invitrogen™ Ambion™ mMESSAGE mMACHINE™ T7 Transcription Kit (Thermo Fisher).

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.
