Cells were maintained at 37°C with 5% CO2 and passage every 2–3 days. The average doubling time of J1 mESCs in presence of 4sU as determined by cell counting was 14.8 hours.
For labeling experiments, 4sU (Alfa Aesar, J60679) were dissolved in DMSO to make 1 M stock. WT and Tet-TKO mESCs were seeded at a density of 3×105 cells/mL two days before the labeling experiments and cultured in feeder-free conditions (0.1% gelatin-coated plates). One timepoint 4sU labeling was performed by incubating mESCs in fresh medium supplemented with 4sU (at a final concentration of 100 μM). After 4 hours of labeling, mESCs were rinsed once with PBS and dissociated into single cell suspensions with TrypLE-Express (Gibco, 12605010) for 5 min at 37°C.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HEK293T landing pad cells (37 (link), 38 (link)) were used to display the NTD mutant library for deep mutational scanning. Landing pad cells were maintained using complete growth medium consisting of Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM; Corning), 10% (v/v) fetal bovine serum (FBS; VWR), penicillin-streptomycin (Gibco), nonessential amino acid (Gibco), and doxycycline (2 μg/ml). Plasmid (1.2 μg) was transfected into 6 × 105 landing pad cells. For the deep mutational scanning experiment, eight transfection reactions were carried out in parallel to minimize loss of mutant diversity at the transfection step. Transfected cells were then incubated at 37°C with 5% CO2. After 48 hours, 10 nM AP1903 was supplemented to carry out negative selection. At 72 hours after the negative selection, positive selection antibiotic [puromycin (1 μg/ml) for NTD cell lines or hygromycin (100 μg/ml) for hACE2 cell lines] was supplemented to the medium to carry out positive enrichment of cells with successful recombination. Constructed cell lines would remain in the complete growth medium supplemented with doxycycline and the positive selection antibiotics.

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.
