Infection of Macrophages with Fluorescent M. tuberculosis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
M. tuberculosis was grown to log phase in 7H9 liquid media (BD 271310) supplemented with Middlebrook OADC (Sigma M0678), 0.5% glycerol, 0.05% Tween-80 in roller bottles at 37°C. M. tuberculosis Erdman strain expressing eGFP under control of the MOP promoter was a gift from Dr. Sarah Stanley’s laboratory. Macrophages were infected with fluorescent M. tuberculosis using a modified version of the spinfection protocol as previously described (Watson et al., 2015 (link)). Mycobacteria were washed in PBS three times and directly inoculated into the macrophage tissue culture wells at an MOI of 10. Following centrifugation, infected cells were incubated at 37°C for one day post-infection. The wells were washed with PBS and fixed with 4% PFA before staining for microscopy.

Detailed Cultivation and Infection Protocol for Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All Mtb experiments were performed with Mtb Erdman strain or strains derived from Mtb Erdman strain. Low passage frozen stocks of Mtb were grown to log phase in 7H9 (BD) liquid media supplemented with 10% Middlebrook OADC (Sigma), 0.05% Tween-80 and 0.5% glycerol in roller bottles at 37°C. Mtb-LUX expressing luciferase from the luxCDABE operon has been described previously and was cultured as described above [36 (link)]. WT or ΔeccC Mtb expressing eGFP under control of the MOP promoter was a gift from Dr. Sarah Stanley’s laboratory [63 (link)], and was cultured as described above. For BMM infections, log phase bacteria were washed twice with PBS and sonicated three times at 90% amplitude for 30 seconds each then diluted into BMM media (DMEM with 10% FBS, 2 mM L-glutamine, 10% MCSF, 11 mg/mL sodium pyruvate) prior to infection. For THP-1 and RAW 264.7 infections, 10 mL of the Mtb culture was washed twice in PBS with 10% heat-inactivated horse serum. After washing, Mtb was resuspended in 5 mL PBS with 10% heat-inactivated horse serum and sonicated twice at 50% amplitude for 15 seconds. Mtb was diluted into DMEM with 10% heat-inactivated horse serum, and this inoculum was added to THP-1 cells prior to spinfection.

M. tuberculosis (Erdman) was used for macrophage infections. M. tuberculosis was grown to log phase in 7H9 liquid media (BD) supplemented with 10% Middlebrook OADC (Sigma), 0.5% glycerol, 0.05% Tween80 in roller bottles at 37°C.

Characterization of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Mutants

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All Mtb strains were cultured in 7H9 liquid media (BD) supplemented with 10% Middlebrook OADC (Sigma), 0.5% glycerol, 0.05% Tween80 in roller bottles at 37°C. Transposon mutants were obtained from ATCC and carry Himar1 transposon insertions with the Kanamycin resistance gene in the indicated locus. Transposon insertion sites were validated by PCR and Sanger sequencing (Lamichhane et al., 2003 (link)). For genetic complementation studies, the predicted promoter region and open reading frame were cloned into the SacI site of the integrating vector pBU (Vultos et al., 2006 (link)) which had been modified to confer Zeocin resistance, and strains were selected with 25μg/ml Zeocin. Control strains carried pBU with a ~100 nucleotide fragment of GFP as unique sequence tag (see Key Resources Table). For luminescent growth assays, strains carried the containing a codon-optimized luxBCADE operon expressed from a MOPS promoter carried on the pmv306-Hyg integrating vector (Craney et al., 2007 (link)). The ΔeccC strain was made by homologous recombination using the pMSG361 vector (Rosenberg et al., 2015 (link)).

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.
