Minicomplete protease inhibitors

Manufactured by Roche
Sourced in Switzerland

MiniComplete protease inhibitors are a set of reagents designed to inhibit the activity of proteases, which are enzymes that break down proteins. These inhibitors are commonly used in various laboratory applications, such as protein extraction and purification, to prevent proteolytic degradation and maintain the integrity of target proteins.

Cultured cortical neurons or HEK cells were rinsed with cold aCSF and collected in 200 μL lysis buffer [50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1% NP40, 1% Sodium deoxycholate (SDOC) and 1% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)] containing mini cOmplete protease inhibitors (Hoffmann-La Roche Grenzacherstrasse, Basel, Switzerland). The high SDS concentration was applied to avoid conventional protein–protein interaction. Lysates were further solubilized by sonication and 10 min incubation on ice followed by centrifugation for 10 min at 13 000 g. Supernatant was adjusted to 500 μL with lysis buffer and incubated 3 h on rotation at 4°C with 1μL antibodies against XIAP and protein A-Sepharose beads (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA, USA). Immunocomplexes were washed three times with ice-cold lysis buffer without SDS (50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1% NP40, 1% SDOC), resuspended in 2X Laemmli buffer and denatured at 95°C for 10 min.

DAz-2, synthesized as previously described [58 (link)] was prepared in DMSO at a final concentration of 250 mM and stored at −20 °C. p-Biotin was prepared in DMSO at a final concentration of 5 mM and stored at −80 °C. Prdx1+/+ and Prdx1−/− MEFs expressing WT FLAG-RAD51 or Prdx1+/+ MEFs expressing C137S, C312S, or C391D FLAG-RAD51 were grown to ∼85% confluency. The cells were washed with sterile PBS ( × 3) and incubated in DMEM with 5 mM DAz-2 or 1% (v/v) DMSO for 1.5 h at 37 °C. Afterwards, the cells were washed with cold PBS (×3), scraped into RIPA buffer (250 μl) containing 1x mini complete protease inhibitors (Roche) with a rubber policeman, and lysed by incubating on ice for 15 min with swirling. Lysates were cleared by centrifugation at 4 °C for 15 min (14,000×g) and the protein concentration was determined by BCA assay (Pierce).

Phospho-p38 MAPK Western Blotting

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were treated with vehicle (DMSO), Yoda1, or compound 2e at the appropriate times prior to lysing. Cells were harvested in lysis buffer containing 10 mm Tris (pH 7.5), 150 mm NaCl, 0.5 mm EDTA, 0.5% NP-40, MiniComplete protease inhibitors (Roche), and PhosSTOP phosphatase inhibitors (Roche). A protein quantification assay was then performed using the DC Protein Assay (Bio-Rad). 25 μg of protein was loaded on a 10% polyacrylamide gel. After resolution by electrophoresis, samples were transferred to PVDF membranes, and Western blotting was performed as described previously (38 (link)) using a primary antibody for phospho-p38 MAPK (9215, Cell Signaling Technology). Membranes were reprobed with p38α antibody (9228, Cell Signaling Technology) to confirm equal protein loading. Species-appropriate secondary antibodies (GE Healthcare) and ECL Prime Western blotting detection reagent (GE Healthcare) were used for visualization. Syngene G:BOX Chemi XT4 was used for imaging alongside GeneSys image acquisition software for densitometric analysis.

Phosphorylation Analysis Using Phos-tag Gel

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Shisa9/CKAMP44 phosphorylation was assessed using the Phos‐tag system (Wako, Neuss, Germany), which facilitates phosphorylation‐dependent retarded protein migration through a polyacrylamide gel, and subsequent WB. Phos‐tag gel electrophoresis (6–8% polyacrylamide supplemented with 50 μm Phos‐tag) was established using an optimised protocol with Zn2+ in a bis/tris‐buffered neutral pH gel system either as described previously 48 or according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Phos‐tag gels were generally blotted using a wet transfer blotting set‐up. As a control for phosphorylated proteins, the proteins were dephosphorylated using a thermosensitive alkaline phosphatase (FastAP; Thermo Fisher Scientific). The transfected cells were lysed in 1× FastAP buffer (Thermo Fisher Scientific) containing 1% Triton‐X and Mini Complete protease inhibitors without EDTA (Roche). The lysates were cleared by centrifugation and proteins were subsequently dephosphorylated for 2 h at 37 °C using FastAP.

Myc-USP46 and GFP-GluA1, with or without HA-ubiquitin (HA-Ubi), were transfected into HEK cells, respectively. Two days after transfection, Myc-USP46 and GFP-GluA1 were purified by immunoprecipitation with either Myc antibody or GluA1CT antibody in modified RIPA buffer (with 0.1% SDS). The in vitro deubiquitination assay was performed in deubiquitination buffer (100 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.4, 1 mM EDTA, 0.1 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, 1 mM dithiothreitol) containing mini cOmplete protease inhibitors (Roche). GFP-GluA1 (from cells co-transfected with HA-Ubi) was incubated with either boiled Myc-USP46 or native form of Myc-USP46 for 2 h at 37°C. 2 × Laemmli buffer was then added and samples were denatured at 95°C for 10 min prior to western analysis.

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.
