9 μM purified PFKL was combined with 1 mM ATP, 2 mM F6P, and 50 μM NA-11 in 20 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 1 mM DTT, 500 μM ammonium sulfate, 5% glycerol, and 100 μM EDTA. The PFKL sample was applied to glow-discharged CFLAT 2/2 holey-carbon grids (Protochips) and blotted away 4 times successively, before being plunged into liquid ethane using a Vitrobot (ThermoFisher). Data collection was performed on a Titan Krios (ThermoFisher) equipped with a Quantum GIF energy filter (Gatan Inc.) operating in zero-loss mode with a 20 eV slit width. Movies were acquired on a K-2 Summit Direct Detect camera (Gatan Inc.), operating in super-resolution mode with a pixel size of 0.525 Å/pixel, with 50 frames and a total dose of 90 electrons/Å2. Images were collected at both 0° and 30° tilt. Data collection was automated using Leginon software (Suloway et al., 2005 (link)). Data collection and refinement statistics are listed in Table S2.

RBC-EV sample preparation was conducted based on a previously described protocol [65 (link)]. Briefly, RBC-EV samples were pre-incubated with antibodies against CD63 (556,019, BD Biosciences, USA) overnight at 4 °C, followed by incubation with 10-nm gold conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG antibody (abcam) for 60 min at room temperature. Then, samples were applied to glow-discharged holey grids, following with loading and blotting of 10 μl RBC-EV samples for 5 min (repeated 3 times). Grids with EV samples were plunged in liquid ethane using a Vitrobot (FEI) and maintained in liquid nitrogen until imaging. Images were acquired and collected on a FEI Tecnai G2 F20 (FEI Co, USA) at 200 kV Cryo-S/TEM equipped with a Gatan K-2 Summit Direct Detect camera. Leginon software was used to automate data collection [90 (link)].

To prepare samples for cryo-EM, CTPS was applied to glow-discharged CFLAT 2/2 holey-carbon grids (Protochips) and blotted away four times successively, before being plunged into liquid ethane using a Vitrobot (ThermoFisher). Sample conditions for CTP-bound CTPS2 were as described previously (10 (link)). Conditions for CTP-bound CTPS1 were 5 mM CTP and 10 mM MgCl2 in 20 mM Tris ⋅ HCl pH 7.9, 100 mM NaCl, and 0.5 mM DTT. Conditions for human and mouse CTPS bound to small molecule inhibitors were 5 μM CTPS, 2 mM UTP, 7.5 mM glutamine, 10 mM MgCl2, and 50 μM R80 or T35 in 20 mM Tris ⋅ HCl pH 7.9, 100 mM NaCl, and 0.5 mM DTT. Data for CTP-bound CTPS1 was collected on a Glacios (ThermoFisher). Data for all other structures was collected on a Titan Krios (ThermoFisher) equipped with a Quantum Gatan Imaging Filter energy filter (Gatan Inc.) operating in zero-loss mode with a 20-eV slit width. Both microscopes were equipped with a K-2 Summit Direct Detect camera (Gatan Inc.). On the Glacios, movies were collected in counted mode with a pixel size of 1.16 Å/pixel, with 50 frames and a total dose of 65 electrons/ Å2. On the Titan Krios, movies were collected in superresolution mode with a pixel size of 0.525 Å/pixel, with 50 frames and a total dose of 90 electrons/ Å2. Data collection was automated using Leginon (61 (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.
