Sulfo nhs lc biotinylation kit

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in Canada

The Sulfo-NHS-LC-Biotinylation Kit is a laboratory product that facilitates the biotinylation of proteins. It contains the reagent Sulfo-NHS-LC-Biotin, which is used to covalently attach a biotin label to primary amines on proteins. This allows for the detection and analysis of proteins through biotin-avidin interactions.

Multicolor Flow Cytometry for Malaria Antigen Detection

PfPfMSP1, PfPfAMA1 and TT were biotinylated with the Sulfo-NHS-LC-Biotinylation Kit (ThermoFisher) at a ratio of 1:1 according to the manufacturer’s instructions. For detection of PfCSP-specific cells biotinylated (NANP)9 peptide was sourced from Biomatik (Ontario, Canada). Biotinylated Ags were incubated with premium-grade SA-PE and SA-APC (Molecular Probes) at a molar ratio of 4:1, added four times with 15 min incubation at room temperature.
PBMCs, processed and cryopreserved at 5 × 106 [31 (link)], were thawed and washed in PBS with 2% heat inactivated FBS. Approximately 2.5 × 106 cells were incubated with 1 μL of both SA-PE and SA-APC tetramers for 20 min at room temperature. Cells were further incubated for an additional 30 min with human B-cell surface molecules using the antibodies listed in Supporting Information Table 2. One million events were acquired on a BD Fortessa flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA) and the data analysed using FlowJo software (Tree Star, Inc, Ashland, OR).

Quantifying VAR2CSA-CSPG Binding Affinity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The binding affinity of the VAR2CSA recombinant proteins to CSPG was measured using a Biacore T200 system (GE Healthcare). Briefly, decorin (Sigma) was biotinylated non-specifically at lysine residues in the protein core using Sulfo-NHS-LC-Biotinylation Kit (Thermo). NeutrAvidin protein (Thermo Scientific) was covalently immobilized on a Series S sensor chip CM5 (GE Healthcare) using N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) amine coupling chemistry, in flow cell 4 (Fc-4), while a biotin-labeled Pfs25 recombinant was similarly immobilized in the reference Fc-3. Protein binding affinity to the immobilized CSPG was obtained by subtracting the response on reference Fc-3 from that on Fc-4, after injection of a serial dilution of the full-length VAR2CSA recombinants. The affinity analysis was performed in Biacore T200 evaluation software (version 3.2) and the steady-state model was used to calculate the dissociation constant KD.

Induction and Detection of Malaria Immunity

For induction of GC reactions, each mouse was intravenously injected with 200 μl of the SRBC suspension containing 2 × 108 SRBCs, and spleens were analyzed at day 10. Alternatively, Plasmodium berghei parasites engineered to express Plasmodium falciparum CSP (PfCSP) in place of the endogenous P. berghei CSP molecule (Pb-PfSPZ) (51 (link)) were used. Parasites were maintained by serial passage through Anopheles stephensi mosquitoes. Mice were immunized intravenously with 5 × 104 irradiated (15 kRad) Pb-PfSPZ dissected by hand from the salivary glands of A. stephensi mosquitoes as described previously.
For the detection of PfCSP-specific cells, a nine-times repeat of asparagine-alanine-asparagine-proline (NANP)9 peptide was sourced from Biomatik (Ontario, Canada) and was biotinylated with the Sulfo-NHS-LC Biotinylation Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) at a ratio of 1:1 according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Biotinylated antigens were incubated with premium-grade streptavidin-phycoerythrin and streptavidin-allophycocyanine (Molecular Probes) at a molar ratio of 4:1 and added four times with 15-min incubation at room temperature.

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.
