Protein a sepharose

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States

Protein A-Sepharose is a chromatography medium used for the purification of antibodies and immunoglobulins. It is composed of Protein A, a bacterial cell wall protein, covalently coupled to Sepharose beads. Protein A has a high affinity for the Fc region of immunoglobulins, allowing for the selective capture and purification of antibodies from complex mixtures.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A radioligand binding assay (RBA) were used to assess the changes in IgA-tTG and IgG-tTG levels (U/mL) separately, as previously described [31 (link)]. In short, human tissue transglutaminase (tTG) was synthesized by in vitro transcription and translation of cDNA using the TNT SP6 Coupled Reticulocyte Lysate System (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) in the presence of 35S-methionine (Perkin Elmer, Boston, MA, USA). Both IgG-tTG and IgA-tTG were analyzed. For the IgG-tTG analysis, 35S-tTG was diluted and added to human serum and incubated overnight at 4 °C. Protein A sepharose (PAS) (Invitrogen, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Carlsbad, CA, USA) was used to separate free and antibody-bound 35S-tTG by binding IgG in the serum. The IgA-tTG analysis was performed similarly, except goat anti-human IgA-agarose (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA) was used instead of the PAS. The levels of tTG autoantibodies were calculated from standard curves containing approximately 2 U/mL, 4 U/mL, 8 U/mL, 16 U/mL, 31 U/mL, 63 U/mL, 125 U/mL, 250 U/mL, 500 U/mL and 1000 U/mL of respective IgA-tTG and IgG-tTG.

For the coimmunoprecipitation experiments, cells were harvested in lysis buffer (40 mm HEPES, pH 7.5, 120 mm NaCl, 1 mm EDTA, 0.3% CHAPS, and protease and phosphatase inhibitors). The lysed cells were incubated on ice for 20 min and centrifuged for 10 min at 14,000 × g at 4°C to remove cellular debris. Supernatants that contained 1.5 mg total protein were then incubated with rabbit anti-mTOR antibody (Cell Signaling Technology, catalogue no. 2972) at 4°C overnight, and then Protein A Sepharose (Thermo Fisher Scientific, catalogue no. 101041) was added. As a negative control, normal rabbit immunoglobulin G (IgG; Sigma, catalogue no. 12-370) was used. After incubation for 2 h at 4°C, the resins were washed four times with lysis wash buffer and boiled in SDS–PAGE sample buffer. The samples were analyzed by Western blot.

Ubiquitination assay was performed as described elsewhere [23 (link)]. In brief, HEK293 cells were transfected with plasmids expressing HA-Ub, V5-Nrf2, and FLAG-Keap1 for 48 h. Prior to lysis, cells were treated with 10 μM of MG132 for 3 h. V5-Nrf2 was precipitated by anti-V5 antibody, captured by protein A-sepharose (Thermo Scientific), and analyzed by immunoblotting for HA-Ubiquitin to reveal the ubiquitinated Nrf2.

Ubiquitination Assay for Nrf2 Regulation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Ubiquitination assay was performed as described elsewhere [20 (link)]. In brief, HEK293 cells (ATCC) were transfected with plasmids expressing HA-tagged Ub, V5-tagged Nrf2, and FLAG-tagged Keap1 [21 (link)] for 48 h and then treated with MGS for 16 h. Prior to lysis, cells were treated with 10 μM of MG132 (Sigma-Aldrich) for 3 h to block ubiquitin-dependent protein degradation. The total cell lysate was prepared by Pierce™ IP lysis buffer per the manufacturer’s protocols (Thermo Scientific). For precipitating V5-tagged Nrf2, 1 μg of anti-V5 antibody (R960–25, Thermo Scientific) was added to the cytosolic fraction. Immune complexes captured by protein A-sepharose (Thermo Scientific) were analyzed by immunoblotting for HA (H3663, Sigma) to reveal the ubiquitinated Nrf2.

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.
