pcDNA3.1 constructs with Flag tag were translated
in vitro by using the TNT-coupled transcription and translation system (Promega, Madison, USA) following the manufacturer’s instruction. GST constructs were transformed into
Escherichia coli BL21 cells and the protein expression was induced by IPTG (up to 1 mM) at 37°C for 4 h. The GST or GST fusion proteins were extracted and immobilized onto Glutathione Sepharose 4B beads (Amersham Biosciences, Piscataway, USA) at 4°C for 4 h. Equal amounts of GST and GST-fusion proteins were incubated with
in vitro translated protein at 4°C overnight. After centrifugation and three times wash with lysis buffer, the beads were eluted with 30 μL of 1×SDS loading buffer and then boiled for 10 min, followed by western blot analysis using anti-Flag-tag M2 antibody (1:5000) as the primary antibody. Ponceau stain indicated the loading of GST or GST-fusion proteins.

The TNT coupled transcription and translation system (Promega) was used to transcribe and translate HA-Alox5 protein in vitro. Prokaryotically expressed GST-Runx2 in HEK 293T was purified with glutathione Sepharose 4B (GE Healthcare). HA-Alox5 protein and GST-Runx2 were co-incubated and rotated in 1% NP-40 buffer at 4 °C for 3 h. Subsequently, the protein complex was washed three times, eluted with 30 μl of 2 × SDS loading buffer and analyzed with Western Blotting assay.

In Vitro Protein Interaction Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In vitro transcription and translation of goal, proteins were performed by using the TNT-coupled transcription and translation system (Promega Biotech Co., Ltd). Using a T7-TNT kit, we translated 1μg of pcDNA3.1 vector in the presents of methionine or 35 S-methionine in a reaction volume of 50μl. An aliquot of 10~20μl was used for each GST pull-down assay. Translation protein size was verified by subjecting 1~5μl reaction mixture to SDS-PAGE and western blot or autoradiography. The GST-pull down assay was performed by incubating equal amounts of GST, GST-fusion proteins immobilized by GST sepharose beads (Amersham Biosciences) with in vitro translated protein. Bound proteins were isolated by incubating the mixture for 2 h at 4℃, washing 3 times with binding buffer (20mM Tris, pH7.5, 50mM NaCl, 10% Glycerol, 1% NP-40). Proteins were eluted by 2×SDS loading buffer and separated by SDS-PAGE. Ponceau or Coomassie brilliant blue stain indicated the loading amounts of the GST-fusion proteins. The bound proteins were then visualized by western blot or autoradiography.

CED-3 protease assays were done as described previously40 (link). Briefly, proteins of interest were synthesized and labeled with 35S-Methionine using TNT Transcription and Translation coupled system (Promega) and incubated with or without 5 ng of purified CED-3 at 30°C for 1 hour. The reactions were then resolved by 15% SDS-PAGE gel and subjected to autoradiography.

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.
