Arabidopsis I + III2 supercomplex purified by sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation was tested for activity, using an established protocol59 (link). The assay was carried out in 25 mM potassium phosphate (pH 7.2), 5 mM magnesium chloride, 260 µM NADH, 67 µM decylubiquinone (Sigma-Aldrich), 0.1 mM horse cytochrome c (Sigma-Aldrich) and 3,000 U ml−1 superoxide dismutase to ensure that cytochrome c remained oxidized25 (link). The assay volume was 170 µl. Four different conditions with or without cytochrome c and decylubiquinone were tested (Supplementary Fig. 5). For each condition, measurements of two blanks (0 µg I + III2 supercomplex) as well as two measurements each of 2 µg and 4 µg I + III2 supercomplex were performed. Activity measurements were carried out with a plate reader (Multiscan Sky, Thermo Fisher Scientific) at 340 nm (NADH absorbance; extinction coefficient of NADH: 6.22 mM−1 cm−1).

Protein Fractionation Using Sephadex G-75

Blood serum samples (2 ml) or cytosolic fractions (2 ml containing about 40 mg total protein) were fractionated on the column with Sephadex G-75 in phosphate saline buffer, pH 7.4 or buffer A, respectively. The void volume of the column was estimated using blue dextran. Horse cytochrome C was used as a molecular weight marker (Sigma, USA). The fractions following the void volume (~1.5 ml per fraction) were collected and specified by D280 and D254.

Yeast Proteome Fractionation and Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Bovine Ubiquitin (UniProt Accession P0CG53), horse Cytochrome C (UniProt Accession L7MRG1), and horse myoglobin (UniProt Accession P68082) were purchased as standards from Sigma. Each sample was dissolved to yield solutions of ~10 pmol/μL in 49.9:49.9:0.2 acetonitrile/water/formic acid for infusion studies.
Yeast cells (Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain Y1788) were grown to log phase (OD600 = 0.7) at which time they were washed, pelleted, snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored at −80 °C until use. Yeast cells were lysed by heat and proteins were precipitated in acetone. The proteins were then dissolved in 1% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and separated by molecular weight (MW) using a GELFrEE system (Expedeon).7 (link),26 (link) Approximately 400 μg of protein were collected into 11 fractions. Two of the fractions were selected for top-down analyses. Prior to mass spectrometric analyses, sodium dodecyl sulfate was removed from the fractions via methanol–chloroform precipitation and proteins were reconstituted with 5% acetonitrile (ACN) and 0.2% formic acid in water.

Quaternary structure of BpsγCA was investigated by
SEC as previously described [49] (link). In particular, column
calibration curve was performed on a Superdex 75 10/300 column (GE
Healthcare) connected to an ÄKTA™ System (Cytiva) at room temperature.
Running buffer was prepared with 20 mM Tris, 100 mM NaCl, pH 8.0.
Calibration was carried out using the following standards (Sigma Aldrich,
St. Louis, MO, USA): horse Cytochrome C (Cyt C,
12.4 kDa), Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA, 66.4 kDa) and Carbonic Anhydrase from
bovine erythrocytes (CA 29.0 kDa). Blue dextran (2,000,000 Da) was used to
calculate the column void volume (Vo). The molecular weight of BpsγCA was
determined by plotting Kav, calculated from the measured
elution volume (Eq. (3)) against the logarithm of the molecular weights of
the standard proteins. Prism - GraphPad software was used to generate the
graph [50] . Kav=Ve-V0/Vt-V0

Human hemoglobin, cytoglobin and myoglobin and horse cytochrome C were obtained from a commercial source (Sigma-Aldrich). Polyclonal rabbit antisera for detection of PqqL, SurA, BamA and YtfP were generated at the Monash Animal Research Platform, from proteins purified in-house. Rabbits were serially injected with purified proteins in combination with complete (first injection) or incomplete (subsequent injections) Freund's adjuvant, over a period of 1–3 months, with rabbit serum periodically tested for reactivity to the target protein. Once acceptable levels of reactivity were achieved rabbits were sacrificed and serum was collected and stored in aliquots at -80°C.

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.
