ITC measurements were performed at 25 °C using a MicroCal auto-iTC200 calorimeter (Malvern Panalytical). Apo DnaK T175A and NBD T175A were purified as described, with a final dialysis step against 40 mM Tris-HCl (pH = 7.4), 50 mM KCl, 10 mM MgCl2 for 16 h at 4 °C. The concentration of the proteins after dialysis was measured using a DC protein assay. For the ITC assay, the dialyzed proteins were prediluted to 60 μM in the dialysis buffer, then diluted 1:1 with 2X buffer to a final concentration of 30 μM in a final buffer containing 40 mM Tris-HCl (pH = 7.4), 50 mM KCl, 10 mM MgCl2 supplemented with 1% DMSO and 0.01% tween-20. Then, 19 injections of 2 μL telaprevir or MECA (100 μM), dissolved in the aforementioned buffer, were injected into 0.2 mL of either DNAK175A or NBD in the chamber every 150 s. For one replicate, telaprevir was dissolved in 40 mM Tris-HCl (pH = 7.4), 50 mM KCl, 10 mM MgCl2 supplemented with 1.5% DMSO and 0.015% tween-20. Data for raw ITC and thermodynamic curves were downloaded for analysis using Affinimeter software and plotted using GraphPad Prism. Heat release from dilution of drug into buffer was subtracted from the thermodynamic data.

ITC was performed with a MicroCal Auto-ITC200 calorimeter (Malvern Instruments, UK) at 298K. Proteins were dialyzed overnight against the same reaction buffer (PBS pH 7.4, 1mM EDTA). Protein concentration was quantified by monitoring UV absorbance at 210nm using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). All titrations were made by 26 successive 3s injections of 1.5μL cytokines into 120μL of IL-17RA solution with a 180s interval between consecutive injections. An initial delay of 60s was applied before the first injection and a stirring speed of 750rpm was applied. For the wild-type receptor, the experiment was performed with 250μM IL-17A (syringe) and 35μM IL-17RA (cell). For the experiment with the A104E receptor variant, 149μM IL-17A and 22μM A104E IL-17RA were used. The binding isotherms were fitted to a single-site binding model under the MicroCal PEAQ-ITC analysis software (version 1.21, Malvern Instruments, UK).

ITC measurements were performed at 25 °C using a MicroCal auto-iTC200 calorimeter (MicroCal, LLC). Purified truncated mouse cGAS was dialyzed against 40 mM HEPES buffer (pH 7.5) and 300 mM NaCl for 24 h at 4 °C. Dialysis led to some precipitation, which were removed through centrifugation followed by collection of the supernatant. The concentration of the protein in supernatant was measured using Pierce® BCA protein assay. The protein was flash frozen in liquid N2 and stored at −80 °C. For the ITC assay, the dialyzed protein was prediluted to 20 µM in the dialysis buffer and diluted to a final concentration of 10 µM in a final buffer containing 40 mM HEPES, 1% DMSO, 150 mM NaCl, 0.01% Tween-20 and + /− dsDNA 10 µM and + /− ATP or GTP 1 mM. Then, 2 μl RU.365 100 µM, dissolved in the buffer aforementioned, were injected into 0.2 ml of protein in the chamber every 150 s. Data for raw ITC and thermodynamic curves, each from one experiment, were downloaded after analysis using Affinimeter software and plotted using GraphPad Prism (7.01). The software calculates error bars as an indication of the contribution of the raw data noise that is determined from the integral of the standard deviation of the baseline during the injection.

ITC measurements were performed at 15°C using a MicroCal auto-iTC200 calorimeter (MicroCal, LLC). Protein samples were extensively dialyzed against a buffer containing 20 mM Hepes, pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 0.5 mM TCEP, and 1% DMSO.

Thermodynamic Analysis of TTR Ligand Binding

The thermodynamic
parameters that characterize the binding of TTR ligands to WT-TTR
were determined using a MicroCal Auto-iTC200 Calorimeter (MicroCal,
Malvern-Panalytical), as detailed before.44 (link) A 100 μM solution of the compound (in a PBS buffer pH 7.0
containing 100 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA and 2.5% DMSO) was titrated into
an ITC cell containing a 5 μM solution of WT-TTR in the same
buffer at 25 °C. A stirring speed of 750 rpm and 2 μL injections
were programmed, with a 150 s equilibration period between each injection
to allow the calorimetric signal (thermal power) to return to baseline
and a 10 μcal/s reference power. Two independent titrations
were done for each TTR ligand. The experimental data were analyzed
with a general model for a protein with two ligand-binding sites93 (link),94 (link) implemented in Origin 7.0 (OriginLab) accounting for cooperative
and noncooperative binding. The best fit of the binding isotherm was
attained with a model considering two identical binding sites (i.e.,
no cooperativity) for tolcapone and its derivatives.

ITC measurements were performed using a MicroCal auto-iTC200 calorimeter (MicroCal, LLC). Briefly, purified katanin-p60 AAA domain construct was dialyzed against HEPES.Na 20 mM, NaCl 150 mM, MgCl2 5mM, (NH4)2SO4 10 mM, TCEP 1 mM (pH 7.5), for 6 or 9 h at 4 °C. DMSO solutions of compounds 1, 2, or 3 were diluted in dialysis buffer (200 μM, 2.5% DMSO final) and titrated into a solution of the dialyzed protein (20 μM in dialysis buffer plus 2.5% DMSO, ~200 μl) in the ITC chamber. ITC titrations were carried out at 25 °C, while stirring at 275 rpm. An initial injection of 0.4 μl was followed by 19 injections of 2.0 μl of compound, with a duration of 4 sec (per injection) and a spacing of 150 s. The heat of dilution was determined by independent titrations (buffer into protein) and was subtracted from the experimental data. The collected data were analyzed in the AFFINImeter software, and plotted using Prism (Version 6.0, GraphPad Software Inc). Dissociation constants from each titration were obtained employing a single-site equilibrium-binding model.

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.
