TUBE-based HDAC1 Interaction Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Commercially available kits (TUBE1 and TUBE2, LifeSensors, Malvern, PA, USA) were utilized according to the manufacturer's protocol with slight modification. For the TUBE assay, A10 cells were treated with Pi and MG132 and the cell lysates were used for the assay. Either GST or GST-TUBE2 was loaded on Sepharose 4B beads and the cell lysates were applied and assayed as in the conventional GST pull-down method. The precipitates were then separated on an SDS–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis gel and transferred to the polyvinylidene difluoride membrane. The membrane was blocked with 5% bovine serum albumin and probed with either anti-HDAC1 or anti-Flag antibody.

Isolation and Analysis of Ubiquitinated Proteins

3-day-old dark-grown seedlings were irradiated with saturating red light for 5 min and then transferred to darkness for another 5 min. Total proteins were extracted using MOPS buffer (100 mM MOPS, pH 7.4, 150mM NaCl, 0.1% Nonidet P-40, 1% Triton X-100) containing 1 mM PMSF, 1× protease inhibitor (Roche), 1×PhosStop (Roche), 50 µM MG132 and 20 µM PR-619 (LifeSensors) and then cleared by centrifugation (20000 g, 10 min) twice at 4 °C. 30 µL of tandem ubiquitin-binding entities 2 (TUBE2; Lifesensors) were added into the supernatant and incubated at 4 °C for 4 h. Then the pellet was washed 4 times with MOPS buffer and proteins were eluted by adding 20 µL 1×SDS loading buffer (diluted from 5×SDS loading buffer), boiled at 95 °C for 10 min and analyzed by western blots.

For polyubiquitinated protein isolation, we used agarose-coupled TUBE2 (LifeSensors). Immortalized B cells (4 × 106) and primary lymphocytes (1 × 107) were seeded and rested at least 1 h, and treated with PMA/ionomycin with or without z-VRPR-fmk for various times and then lysed in modified RIPA buffer supplemented with Halt protease and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (Thermo Scientific), and deubiquitinase inhibitors (5 mM O-phenanthroline and 50 μM PR619, LifeSensors). Cell lysates (550 μg) were mixed with 10 μl of pre-washed agarose-TUBE2 and incubated for 18 h at 4 °C. Agarose-TUBE2 was collected, washed and denatured in SDS–PAGE loading buffer. Samples were centrifuged and the supernatants were immunoblotted for total linear ubiquitin (LUB9 antibody, LifeSensors), NEMO (Santa Cruz Biotechnology; FL-419), RIP1 (Cell Signaling Technology; #4926) and K48-linked-polyubiquitin (Boston Biochem; #A-101). Scanned images of immunoblots were cropped in the final figures for clarity and conciseness. Full images of all blots are shown in Supplementary Fig. 8.

In vitro and in vivo ubiquitination assays

For in vitro ubiquitination assays, ubiquitination reactions were performed in a reaction mixture containing 50 mM Tris–HCl (pH 7.5), 20 mM MgCl2, 20 mM ATP (Sigma), 150 ng UBA1-His (E1), 250 ng UBC15-His (E2), 1 μg CUL3A-His (E3), 500 ng RBX1-GST, 250 ng LFH1-GST, 1 μg SVP-GFP-His, and 2 μg ubiquitin (Boston Biochem). The mixtures were incubated at 30°C for 3 h, and the reactions were terminated by adding SDS loading buffer. For in vivo ubiquitination assays, 7-day-old seedlings were treated with 150 μM MG132 and incubated for 12 h at 27°C. Frozen tissues were ground, and lysis buffer, which was recommended by the manufacturer of the precipitation resin (TUBE2; LifeSensors), was added to the homogenized powder. Cleared protein lysate was prepared by centrifugation (13 000 g, 10 min). Ten percent of the supernatant was retained to detect CUL3A or SVP in the input samples, and the remaining supernatant was incubated with TUBE2 resin at 4°C for 4 h or 6 h. For visualization, the precipitated proteins were separated by SDS–PAGE and immunoblotted with anti-ubiquitin (Santa Cruz, sc-9133), anti-Flag (Sigma-Aldrich, F1804), and anti-HA (Roche, 11867423001) antibodies.

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.
