To validate the relevance of the Ras family of small GTPases, human RAP2A cDNA was modified to generate a CA (RAP2A-V12) and DN (RAP2A-N17) isoforms using site-directed mutagenesis (Thermo Fischer). The RAP2A isoforms were then inserted into the lentiviral vector pLenti-PGK Neo or Puro DEST by Gateway LR Clonase II (Thermo Fischer). For RAP1B, CA (bovine Flag-RAP1B-V12, Addgene #118323) and DN (bovine Flag-Rap1B-N17, Addgene #118322) were inserted into the same lentiviral vectors as described above for RAP2A. The resulting vectors were used to transduce WT, PB2 KO, and PB2 OE hESCs.

pcDNA3 plasmids containing Flag-Cebpa (66978), Flag-Trib1 (131156), Flag-Rap1b N17 (118322), and Flag-Rap1b V12 (118323) were purchased from Addgene. Plasmids containing Rap2a (55666) and Rap2b (55667) were also purchased from Addgene. Plasmids containing Rap2a and Rap2b genes were transferred to the pcDNA3 vector and mutated to dominant=negative N17 and constitutively active V12 using the In-fusion HD EcoDRy Cloning Kit from Takara (639690) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Furthermore, Rap2a mutants, Cebpa, and Trib1 were cloned into pLVX for lentiviral production. Lentivirus particles were produced in HEK293T LentiX cells (ATCC) as previously described (81 (link)) and used to treat 3T3L1 and PPDIVs.

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.
