Intoxication of CaCo-2 Cells by CDTa and CDTb

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The plasmid pEGFP-N1/LSR was used for the ectopic expression of LSR-EGFP in CaCo-2 cells and is described elsewhere [27 (link)].
CDTa and the precursor form of CDTb (pCDTb) were purified as recombinant proteins from the expression host Bacillus megaterium as described earlier [28 (link)]. CDTb was obtained by proteolytic activation of pCDTb [29 (link), 30 (link)]. Intoxication experiments with CaCo-2 cells were performed by adding 4 nM CDTa together with 5 nM CDTb directly to the cell culture medium.
Recombinant production and DyLight488-labeling of the receptor-binding domain (RBD) are described elsewhere [27 (link)]. Cholera toxin from Vibrio cholerae was obtained from Sigma-Aldrich (C8052).

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.
