Proteins were separated by NuPAGE 4–12% Bis-Tris gels (ThermoFisher Scientific) and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (Amersham Protran Premium, 0.45 μm). The membranes were blocked with 5% nonfat dry milk (Sema5ATSR3-4 proteins with biotinylated Avitag) or 3% Bovine Serum Albumin (His-tagged Sema5Asema-TSR1-7 proteins) in PBS for 1 h at room temperature. For His6 tag detection, the membranes were incubated with primary antibody (6xHis Monoclonal Antibody, TaKaRa, cat. no. 631212 dilution 1:3000) for 1 h at room temperature. Blots were then washed six times for 5 min with PBS-0.1% Tween-20 and incubated for 1 h at room temperature with secondary antibody conjugated to horseradish peroxidase (Anti-mouse IgG peroxidase polyclonal goat antibody, Sigma, cat. no. A0168, dilution 1:10,000). For biotinylated Avitag detection, the blot was incubated with Streptactin HRP (BioRad) antibody at 1:25,000 dilution for 1 h at room temperature. This was followed by washing of blots six times for 5 min with PBS-0.1% Tween-20, and signal detection using ECL (BioRad).

Streptavidin type II (1 μg/mL in 100 μL PBS, Fujifilm-Wako, Osaka, Japan) was immobilized in transparent microplate wells (Greiner 655061, Tokyo, Japan) at 4°C overnight. The wells were blocked with 20% Immunoblock (DS Pharma, Osaka, Japan) and washed three times with PBST (PBS containing 0.1% Tween 20). HLA-DRB1∗11:01, HLA-DRB1∗15:01, or HLA-DRB1∗09:01 complexed with biotinylated HLA-DRA∗01:01 and CLIP (4 μg/mL; ProImmune, Oxford, UK) in 100 μL PBS was added and incubated for 1 h at 25°C. The wells were then washed three times with PBST and incubated with purified C-terminally StreptagII-fused MVR-scFv (1 μg/mL in 100 μL PBS) or PBS for 1 h at 25°C. After washing with PBST, 5,000-fold diluted Streptactin:HRP (BioRad, Hercules, CA, USA) was applied and incubated for 30 min at 25°C. The wells were washed with PBST and measured for HRP activity using a substrate (100 μg/mL 3,3′5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine and 0.02% H2O2 in 100 mM sodium acetate, pH 6.0).

Sections of unfixed cardiac biopsies, both untreated and decellularised, were analysed by immunoblotting. Blotted-dry tissue was ultrasonicated in the presence of Laemmli buffer (~ 10 μg tissue/μl). After heating at 95 °C for 5 min and centrifugation for 10 min at 10,600g, reduced denatured supernatants (3 μl) were subjected to SDS-PAGE in precast 15% gradient polyacrylamide gels (Excel, GE Healthcare, Little Chalfont, UK) and then blotted onto an activated PVDF membrane. Polyclonal rabbit anti-κ light chain (4 μg/ml, Dako, Glostrup, Denmark) or sheep anti-human TTR (3 μg/ml, The Binding Site, Birmingham, UK) antibodies were used to identify their cognate antigens and were detected respectively by peroxidase-conjugated polyclonal sheep anti-rabbit (25 × 10− 3 μg/ml, Dako, Glostrup, Denmark) or anti-sheep (13 × 10− 3 μg/ml) immunoglobulins, followed by 1:10,000 StrepTactin-HRP (Biorad, Hercules, CA, USA) for identification of the molecular weight standards (Precision Plus Protein WesternC, Biorad, Hercules, CA, USA). Peroxidase activity was visualized using a chemiluminescent substrate (Immobilon Western, Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) and a FluorChem M system (Proteinsimple, San Jose, CA, USA).

Biotinylation and Flow Cytometry of Sema5A

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Sema5ATSR3-4 constructs containing a C-terminally fused 3C-Avi-His6 tag were produced in HEK 293T cells, purified from the secreted medium by Ni-NTA, and site-specifically biotinylated at the AviTag conjugated to their C-terminus in vitro, using a BirA biotin-protein ligase standard reaction kit Avidity LLC (CO, USA, avidity.com). Successful biotinylation was confirmed by Western blot incubated with Streptactin HRP (BioRad) antibody at 1:25,000 dilution (Supplementary Fig. 1j). For each assay sample, 1 × 105 of genetically engineered CHO GS-/- cells33 (link),34 (link) were harvested and washed in PBS before being resuspended in 50 µg/mL of biotinylated WT, R747E/R749E or K734E/R747E/R749E Sema5ATSR3-4 diluted in PBS with added 1% FBS (assay buffer), gently shaking for 1 h at 4 °C. The cells were then washed with assay buffer before incubation with Alexa Flour 488-streptavidin (1:2000, #S32354, Invitrogen) diluted in assay buffer while gently shaking for 30 min at 4 °C. After wash in assay buffer, the cells were resuspended in assay buffer and subjected to flow cytometry on a SA3800 spectral cell analyzer (SONY), where mean fluorescent intensity for each sample was measured. All experiments were performed a minimum of 3 times using triplicate samples, and mean fluorescent intensity was normalized to CHO WT for all samples.

Cells were seeded and grown to 60% confluency and differentiated in T25 culture flask (Greiner, Germany). Cells were then lysed [4× Laemmli buffer (8% SDS, 240 mM Tris-Cl, pH 6.8), 100 mM DTT] for 15 minutes at room temperature, scraped and transferred to Eppendorf tubes. Lysates were sonicated, boiled for 5 minutes and centrifuged for 2 minutes at 12000 rcf (IEC MicroMAX tabletop centrifuge). Cleared lysates were separated on a SDS-PAGE gel (12%) and blotted onto methanol activated PVDF membrane (Millipore, USA). For improved α-S detection, membranes were first fixed in a 0.4% PFA in PBS solution, then blocked in non-fat-dried-milk (5% ELK, Campina) in TBS and Tween-20 (0.3%) and incubated overnight at 4 °C with primary antibody against α-S or GAPDH. Primary antibodies were detected by goat-anti-mouse-HRP conjugated antibodies [1:8000 in TBS + tween-20 (0.3%)]. Protein Marker bands were visualized by Strep-Tactin-HRP [1:5000 in TBS + tween-20 (0.3%)] (Bio-Rad, USA). HRP-conjugated protein bands were detected by Clarity Western ECL Substrate (BioRAD, USA) and imaged on a FluorChem M imager (Protein Simple, USA).

Adherent cells were washed in ice-cold Dulbecco’s Phosphate Buffered Saline (DPBS) and lysed in gel-loading buffer (2% SDS, 60 mM Tris–HCl pH 6.8, 100 mM DTT, 10% glycerol, and 0.005% bromophenol blue), scraped off the plate, boiled at 95°C for 5 minutes, and subjected to SDS-PAGE. Proteins were then transferred to a PROTRAN 0.2 μm nitrocellulose membrane (Cytiva) and stained with Ponceau S (Sigma-Aldrich). Membranes were incubated in 5% (w/v) non-fat dry milk in TBST (20 mM Tris, 150 mM NaCl, 0.2% Tween-20, pH 7.6) at room temperature for at least 1 h. Blocked membranes were incubated with various primary antibodies, or with a Streptactin-HRP (BioRad), diluted in TBST supplemented with 5% non-fat dry milk overnight at 4°C with gentle shaking. Membranes were washed 3 times with TBST at room temperature and incubated with appropriate secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature with gentle shaking. Blots were washed 3 times with TBST and imaged using an Odyssey Infrared Imaging System (LI-COR Biosciences) for IRDye-conjugated secondary antibodies or on a Chemidoc (Bio-Rad) using an Amersham ECL Western Blotting Detection kit (GE Healthcare) for Streptactin-HRP. See Table S1 for a list and working conditions of the antibodies used in this study.

A serial dilution of sgRNA probes and positive control were dropped onto the nylon membrane, which was UVcross-linked twice using the Auto-crosslink mode in a Stratalinker 2400 UV Crosslinker. The membrane was then blocked in blocking buffer (1× phosphate-buffered saline [PBS] pH 7.4, 1% [w/v] sodium dodecyl sulfate [SDS]) for 30 min, and incubated with StrepTactin-HRP (1:5,000; Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA; Cat: #1610381) diluted in blocking buffer for 30 min. After washing the membrane once in 0.1× blocking buffer and twice in 1× PBST buffer (1× PBS pH 7.4 with 0.05% [v/v] Tween-20), ECL substrate was added for chemiluminescent detection.

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.
