Lenti-X cells were transfected in Gibco opti-MEM Glutamax reduced serum media (Thermo Fisher Scientific) with the pCDH-EF1-HA-FGFR2b-T2A-mApple or pCDH-EF1-HA-FGFR2b-APEX2-T2A-mApple viral vectors, alongside VSV-G envelope expressing plasmid pMD2.G and lentiviral packaging plasmids pMDLg/pRRE and pRSV-Rev (all generously gifted from Dr. Hurlstone), using FuGENE® HD Transfection Reagent (Promega), following manufacturer instructions. After 48 h, the lentivirus-containing media was sterile filtered using a 0.22 μm syringe filter and stored at −80 °C. The lentiviral media was added to HeLa or T47D_FGFR2bKO in Gibco opti-MEM Glutamax reduced serum media (Thermo Fisher Scientific) containing 10 ng/mL Polybrene Infection/Transfection Reagent (gifted from Dr. Hurlstone). Colonies were selected and protein expression was then confirmed by Western blot. These cell lines are referred to as HeLa_FGFR2bST, HeLa_FGFR2b-APEX2ST and T47D_FGFR2bKO_FGFR2b-APEX2ST.

RNA Interference and Transfection Protocols

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All transfections were carried out in Gibco opti‐MEM glutamax reduced serum media (Thermo Fisher Scientific). For RNA interference, all cells were transfected using Lipofectamine RNAiMax (Thermo Fisher Scientific), according to manufacturer instructions. Validated double‐stranded stealth siRNA oligonucleotides were used for RNA interference. siRNA Universal Negative Control #2 (Sigma‐Aldrich) was used as a control in all RNA interference experiments. BT549 and BT20 cells were transfected using Lipofectamine 3000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific) according to the manufacturer’s instructions, 24 h after RNA interference transfection where indicated. T47D cells were transfected using Escort IV according to manufacturer instructions, same as above. Assays were performed 36 h after transfection, as previously described (Francavilla et␣al,2016 (link)). Where assays were performed more than 36 h after transfection, RNAi and expression were assessed at time of assay to confirm expression.

All transfections were carried out in Gibco opti-MEM glutamax reduced serum media (Thermo Fisher Scientific). HeLa cells were transfected using Lipofectamine 2000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific) according to the manufacturer’s instructions, 24 h after RNA interference transfection where indicated. T47D and BT20 cells were transfected using Escort IV according to manufacturer instructions, same as above. Assays were performed 36 h after transfection. A mock control was used if unspecified.
HeLa cells stably expressing HA-FGFR2b or HA-FGFR2b-APEX2 are referred to as follows: HeLa_FGFR2bST, HeLa_FGFR2b-APEX2ST. Cells were transiently transfected with the following constructs: eGFP (GFP in text), dynamin_K44A-eGFP (DnDNM2 in text), eGFP-RAB11_S25N (DnRAB11 in text), eGFP-RAB11 (wtRAB11 in text), eGFP-RAB11-APEX2 (RAB11-APEX2 in text) and eGFP-APEX2 (GFP-APEX2 in text).

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.
