Purified GP fractions were mixed with NuPAGE LDS sample buffer (Thermofisher, Waltham, MA), boiled for 10 minutes and separated on NuPAGE™ 4-12% Bis-Tris Protein Gels (Thermofisher, Waltham, MA). Subsequently, gels were washed in deionized water three times for 5 minutes, stained with SimplyBlue™ SafeStain (Thermofisher, Waltham, MA) for one hour and destained overnight with distilled water. For western blotting, resolved protein from an unstained gel was transferred to nitrocellulose membranes by Bolt Mini Blot Module (Thermofisher, Waltham, MA). The membranes were blocked with TBS containing 4% non-fat milk powder for 1 hour at RT and subsequently probed with a panel of characterized anti-LASV GP human monoclonal antibodies (48 (link)) (provided by the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research) at a 1:1,000 dilution in Tris-buffered saline with 0.2% Tween-20 (v/v) (TBST) (pH 7.2) containing 4% non-fat milk powder overnight at 4°C with gentle agitation. After three 5-minute washes with TBST, the membranes were incubated with IRDye® 800CW goat anti-human IgG secondary antibody (Li-Cor, Lincoln, NE) at a 1:10,000 dilution for another hour. The membranes were washed three times with TBST and imaged using an Odyssey® CLx Imaging System and processed using Image Studio™ (Li-Cor, Lincoln, NE).

The protein samples were separated on precast gradient polyacrylamide gels (Bolt™ 4–12% Bis‐Tris Plus Gels, Thermo Fisher Scientific) and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (GE Healthcare Life Science, Marlborough, MA, USA) by using Bolt Mini Blot Module and Mini Gel Tank (Thermo Fisher Scientific), according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The membrane was blocked in 5% BSA. The blocked membrane was probed with a primary antibody and HRP‐conjugated secondary antibody. Following a repeat of the wash step, the membrane was kept in enhanced chemiluminescence detection reagents (Thermo Fisher Scientific) for 1 min. Signal intensity was measured with an image analyser (ChemiDoc™ XRS+ system, Bio‐Rad Laboratories). The primary antibodies used were anti‐IL‐1β (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA, USA), anti‐http://www.guidetopharmacology.org/GRAC/LigandDisplayForward?ligandId=4998 (Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), anti‐IFN‐γ (Abcam), anti‐GAPDH, anti‐ JAK2, anti‐phospho‐JAK2, anti‐STAT 1 and 3, anti‐phospho‐STAT1 and 3, anti‐IKKα, anti‐phospho‐IKKα, anti‐IκBα, anti‐phospho‐IκBα, anti‐NF‐κB and anti‐phospho‐NF‐κB p65 were purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (Beverly, MA, USA). In addition, anti‐Lamin B from Invitrogen was used.

The supernatant of an S2 cell culture collected one week postinduction was mixed with NuPAGE lithium dodecyl sulfate sample buffer (Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA), boiled for 10 min, and run on NuPAGE 4 to 12% bis-Tris protein gels (Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA). Protein was transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane with a Bolt miniblot module (Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA) and blocked with 1% nonfat dry milk (Nestlé United States Inc., Solon, OH) in PBST, pH 7.4, with 0.01% sodium azide for 1 h at room temperature or overnight at 4°C. Membranes were probed with a 1:3,000 dilution of flavivirus E-specific 4G2 antibody (1.6 mg/ml) or convalescent-phase PRVABC59 ZIKV-infected mouse or NHP serum at a dilution of 1:1,000 for 1 h at room temperature. After being washed with PBST, membranes were incubated with alkaline phosphatase-conjugated, goat anti-mouse or anti-human IgG antibody (Southern Biotech, Birmingham, AL) for another hour. The membranes were washed three times with PBST and developed with a nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT)-BCIP (5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolylphosphate) (Promega, Madison, WI) solid-phase alkaline phosphatase substrate solution.

MEFs were plated at different densities to reach full confluency at 24, 48, 72 or 96 h post OHT treatment (with the exception of Figure 5E). Lysates were separated at 80 V on 10% acrylamide gel for 2 h. Transfer was carried out at 20 V for 1.5 h using Bolt Mini Blot Modules (Life Technologies) to Immobilon-FL (Millipore) membranes. After blocking in Odyssey blocking buffer (LI-COR) for 30 min, the membranes were incubated overnight with 1:1000 mouse monoclonal anti-Viperin (MaP.VIP | #MABF106) (Millipore), rabbit anti-mouse p56 (gift from Ganes Sen, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH, USA), mouse monoclonal anti-β-tubulin (TU-06 | ab7792) (Abcam) or monoclonal rabbit anti-STING (D2P2F | #13647) (Cell Signaling). Conjugated secondary with Alexa Fluor® 680 dye (Life Technologies) or IRdye800 (Rockland) was subsequently used to image the proteins at 700 or 800 nm with an Odyssey scanner (LI-COR).

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.
