Retroviral Overexpression of Trp53 Mutants

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mouse Trp53 transcript variant 1 (NM_011640.3) was cloned into the retroviral vector pMSCV-IRES-GFP II (Addgene plasmid #52107). Trp53 point mutations were introduced using site-directed mutagenesis with the Q5 Site-Directed Mutagenesis Kit (New England Biolabs E0552S). Retrovirus was produced by plasmid transfection into Platinum-E (Plat-E) cells. Lentivirus to express Cre recombinase was produced by transfecting NIH HEK293T cells with Cre-IRES-PuroR plasmid (Addgene plasmid #30205), Δ8.9 and VSV-G. All transfections were performed with FuGENE 6 transfection agent (Promega E2691) in Opti-MEM Reduced Serum Medium (Gibco 31985070) for 5 hours, and the media replaced with standard DMEM/F12, 10% FBS for viral production. Virus was collected 48, 72, and 96 hours post transfection and combined.

Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) reagents were obtained from BIO-RAD. Rosiglitazone, genistein, and daidzein were purchased from Sigma. The PPARγ -specific antagonist GlaxoWellcome9662 (GW9662) was a gift from GlaxoSmithKline Pharmaceuticals. AdipoRed assay reagent was bought from Lonza, and Hoechst 33342 from Sigma. Adipocyte differentiation kits (Adipogenesis Assay Kit item no. 10006908) were purchased from Cayman Chemical Company. Fugene 6 transfection agent and the Dual-Luciferase® Reporter (DLR™) assay system were purchased from Promega. qPCR oligos were obtained from Invitrogen.

Influenza A Luciferase Reporter Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
293 T cells in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM) minus phenol red, supplemented with 10% heat inactivated FBS, 1% sodium pyruvate and 1% L-glutamine (Cellgro, Manassas, VA) were transfected with pCAGGS expression vector encoding A/H3N2/Udorn/72 PB2, PB1, PA, NP and Influenza A Luciferase reporter plasmid with a 1:1:1:1:0.5 PB2:PB1:PA:NP with Fugene 6 transfection agent (Promega, Madison, WI) in OptiMEM (Gibco, Carlsbad, CA). Transfected cells were treated with compound 2 hours post-transfection, and plates were incubated for 48 hours at 37 C, 5%CO2. Compounds were prepared at 10 mM in 100% DMSO and added as a 1:3 8-point serial dilution with a 50 μM final concentration. Following incubation, cells were lysed and luciferase production quantified with the addition of Britelite Plus (Perkin-Elmer, Waltham, MA), with a 1:1 transfection mix:Britelite Plus ratio. CellTiter-Glo (Promega, Madison, WI) was added to cytotoxicity plates following manufacturer’s instructions to quantify cell survival.

Retroviral Transduction of JAK2 Variants

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Murine JAK2WT (WT) and murine JAK2V617F cDNA15 (link) were cloned into the retroviral vector pMCs-IRES-GFP (Cell Biolabs, San Diego, CA, USA). Transient transfection of Platinum-E retroviral packaging cells (Cell Biolabs) was performed by using the FuGENE6 transfection agent (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Retroviral supernatants were harvested after 48 h and used to transduce the murine interleukin (IL)-3 -dependent pro-B cell line Ba/F3 or bone marrow cells.

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.
