Capsid thermal stability assays were performed as described before [37 (link)]. Briefly, per reaction 1x1010 viral capsids of a vector preparation were diluted in PBS, incubated at indicated temperatures for 15 min and then further diluted in PBS. The temperature gradient (65 to 85°C) was generated by a LightCycler® 96 System (Roche Life Science) with the following program: 2 cycles (10 sec at 37°C; 900 sec at temperature gradient; 10 sec at 37°C), 1 cycle (30 sec at 37°C). Samples were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane using a vacuum blotter, blocked (5% milk in TBS-T) and incubated with hybridoma cell supernatant containing anti-AAV2 specific antibody A20 (recognizing intact capsids) (PROGEN, 1:5 dilution). Anti-mouse IgG HRP-conjugated antibody was used as secondary antibody (Cayman Chemical—Biomol, Hamburg, Germany; 1:2,000 dilution) and signals were detected using SuperSignal West Pico Chemiluminescent Substrate or SuperSignal West Femto Maximum Sensitivity (ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA) in combination with a Fusion FX Vilber Lourmat system (Peqlab).

Total protein (40 μg) was resolved by SDS-PAGE and transferred to nitrocellulose membrane (Bio-Rad). The membrane was blocked in 5% skim milk for 45 min at room temperature followed by probing with 1:1000 diluted primary antibodies (1:250 for ORP5) overnight at 4 °C. After three washes with TBST (50 mM Tris-Cl, 150 mM NaCl, and 0.1% Tween 20; pH7.6), membrane was incubated with respective HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies (1:1000) for 2 h at room temperature and washed three times.

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.
