Autoradiography film

Manufactured by MidSci
Sourced in United States

Autoradiography film is a type of photographic film used to detect and visualize radioactive signals in biological samples. It is designed to capture and record the radioactive emissions from labeled molecules, such as DNA, RNA, or proteins, allowing researchers to analyze the distribution and abundance of these molecules within a sample.

SDS-PAGE and Western Blotting Analysis

Samples were mixed with an equal volume of tricine sample buffer (BioRad, Hercules CA) and then electrophoresed on 12.5% sodium dodecyl sulfate-tris-tricine polyacrylamide gels under reducing conditions and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes via electroblotting as previously described [27 (link)]. Membranes were stained with reversible stain Fast Green FCF 0.1% (Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA) in 25% methanol-10% acetic acid for 1 min, destained with 25% methanol, and then transferred to distilled water to assess equal loading. Membranes were then washed in TBST and blocked for 1 h at room temperature with 5% nonfat dry milk in TBST. Blots were then incubated with PHF1 (1:500), 6E10/4G8 (1:2000), and actin (1:5000; Sigma) overnight at 4 °C. The next day, bound antibodies were detected after 1 h incubation with goat anti-mouse or anti-rabbit IgG HRP (1:3000; GE Healthcare, UK) and the chemiluminescent detection system (Pierce, Rockford, IL) on autoradiography films (MIDSCI, St. Louis, MO).

GPI anchor autoradiography was performed as previously described (17 (link), 57 (link), 59 (link)). Briefly, 33- to 39-h-old parasites that had been grown in ±aTc conditions were washed and resuspended in glucose-free media (RPMI R1383 + 20 mM D-fructose, 25 mM Hepes, 21 mM NaHCO3, 0.37 mM hypoxanthine, 11 mM glutathione, 5 g/l Albumax I, and 10 μg/ml gentamicin). One hundred fifty microcurie of 40 Ci/mmol [3H]GlcN (American Radiochemicals) was added to each 10 ml culture and incubated for 3 h. Parasites were saponin lysed, and glycolipids were extracted with chloroform:methanol:water (10:10:3), nitrogen evaporation, and n-butanol partitioning (60 ). The resultant glycolipids were run on TLC Silica gel 60 F254 plates (Millipore Sigma) using chloroform:methanol:water (10:10:3) as a solvent. The TLC plates were exposed to autoradiography films (MidSci), which were developed after 1 week of exposure. Films were imaged on a BIO-RAD ChemiDoc MP imaging system, and the signal was quantified by the ImageLab software from Bio-Rad.

Immunoblotting and Co-immunoprecipitation Protocols

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunoblotting was performed as described earlier (Siddiqi et al., 2006b (link)). In brief, protein samples containing equal amount of protein were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred on to a nitrocellulose membrane (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA) and the membrane was blocked with 10% (w/v) non-fat dried skimmed milk in PBS-T. The membrane was incubated with a specific primary (as indicated in figures) and secondary antibodies conjugated with HRP. Protein detection was performed with ECL reagents using autoradiography film (MIDSCI, St. Louis, MO).
For co-immunoprecipitation analysis, protein samples (250 μg prot) were solubilized in 2% triton X-100 in PBS followed by incubation with indicated primary antibodies for 4 hours at 4°C. Post-incubation, secondary antibodies attached to agarose beads were added and incubated for 12–14 hours at 4°C. The resulting protein complexes attached to agarose beads were washed thoroughly and co-immunoprecipitated proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE as described previously (Siddiqi et al., 2010a (link); Tiwari et al., 2013 (link)).

DNA Shift Assays of LdtR Mutants

DNA shift assays of LdtR, as well as its mutated versions, was carried out as described previously [9 (link)]. Fragments of the selected promoters were generated by PCR using biotinylated primers (Table 2). The reaction mix for EMSA contained 1 ng of 5’biotin-labelled DNA probe, 50 nM Tris-HCl pH 7.2, 150 mM KCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01% Triton X100, 12.5 ng/μl both Poly(dI-dC) and Poly(dA-dT) nonspecific competitor DNAs, and purified LdtR (0–1000 nM) as indicated. The mix was incubated for 20 min at 37°C and the electrophoresis was conducted at 4°C on 6% acrylamide/bisacrylamide non-denaturing gels in 0.5X Tris-borate EDTA buffer (TBE) pH 8.3. The DNA was transferred to a Hybond-N+ membrane (GE Healthcare, Pittsburgh, PA, USA) by electroblotting at 250 mA for 45 min in a Semi Dry Electroblotting System (Fisher Scientific). The detection of the DNA bands was carried out with the Phototope-Star Detection Kit (New England Biolabs, Ipswich, MA, USA). The membranes were exposed to Autoradiography Film (Mid-Sci, St. Louis, MI, USA).

Signaling Assays and Co-Immunoprecipitation Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For signaling assays, NCI-H1299 and NCI-H1792 cells were seeded at confluence and serum starved overnight. Cells were lysed in RIPA buffer (Sigma) and the lysates Western blotted on a 4-15% Tris-glycine gel and transferred to a 0.2μm nitrocellulose using a Mini-PROTEAN electrophoresis system (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA). For co-immunoprecipitation, HEK 293T cells were transfected as above and lysed in modified RIPA buffer (150mM NaCl, 50mM Tris, pH 7.5, 1% NP-40). Precleared lysates were immunoprecipitated with GFP-Trap agarose beads (Allele Biotech, San Diego CA) or primary antibody as appropriate and washed with lysis buffer. Western blots were developed using a Pierce ECL detection system (Thermo Scientific, Rockford IL) and autoradiography film (MidSci, St. Louis, MO).

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.
