Cloning and Expressing LMNA/C Variants

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The untagged human LMNA (lamin C) (NM_005572) clone (#SC321549) and the tagged human LMNA (lamin A) (NM_170707) Clone (#RC204970) were purchased from OriGene Technologies (Jiangsu, China). PCR products containing the LMNA/C cDNA or different mutations were purified, sequenced (Rui Bo Xing Ke Company, Beijing, China) and then cloned into the pCMV6-AC vector (PS100020, OriGene) or pCMV6-AC-GFP vector (PS100010, OriGene) to construct plasmids to express lamin A, lamin C and the different mutants. Two restriction endonucleases (BamHI and NotI) were used in the cloning process. The plasmids were extracted with the Endotoxin-Free Plasmid Medium Extraction Kit (CW2105s, CW Biotech, Jiangsu, China) and transfected into cells with Lipofectamine 3000 (Invitrogen, 2105082, Carlsbad, USA). Western blot analysis was used to verify expression. The primer sequences are listed in Supplemental Table S1.

Generating Isoform-Specific ADARB1 Constructs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The ORF for the human ADARB1 short isoform (without the Alu exon) in the pCMV6-AC vector was purchased from OriGene, Inc. (catalog no. SC321955; reference transcript NM_001112). Mutageneses using the QuikChange method (Stratagene) were carried out to convert the ORF to encode the ADARB1 reference protein sequence NP_001103. Six nucleotides in pCMV6-AC encoding two additional amino acids at the C-terminus were removed. A minor allele SNP (rs199697177) ‘C’ (allele frequency <1 %) was mutated back to the major allele ‘T’ in the ADARB1 ORF. Then the Alu exon was inserted using the same mutagenesis method. Final pCMV6-ADARB1-short (without the Alu exon) and pCMV6-ADARB1-long (with the Alu exon) constructs were confirmed by sequencing.

Genetic Manipulation of PAX5 Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For PAX5 knockout and knockdown, 3 × 106 cells were used per electroporation. Cells were washed, pelleted, and resuspended in a buffer from the Lonza SF kit V4XC-2024 (Lonza, Basel, Switzerland). The resuspended cells were combined with the ribonucleoprotein complex or small interering (siRNA). The ribonucleoprotein complex was generated by incubating TrueCut caspase 9 (Cas9) Protein V2 (5 μM final, Invitrogen, Waltham, MA), with PAX5 single guide RNA (10 μM final; target sequence ATCCTCTGGCGGACTACATC; Thermo Fisher) in kit buffer. Cells and the ribonucleoprotein complex were electroporated in 100 μL cuvettes using the preset program DN-100. For knockdown, 1 nmol PAX5 Silencer siRNA #s10064 or siRNA negative control #AM4611 (Invitrogen) was electroporated using the preset program DS-104.
For PAX5 overexpression, the PAX5 plasmid #SC304450 or the pCMV6-AC vector (OriGene, Rockville, MD) was transformed into DH5alpha Escherichia coli cells (OriGene), inoculated overnight, and streaked on lysogeny broth/ampicillin agar plates. Isolated clones were inoculated, followed by plasmid isolation using the Plasmid Midi Kit (Qiagen). Electroporation of 2×106 cells resuspended in buffer R and 25 μg plasmid DNA was performed with 3 pulses at 1400V for 10 milliseconds using a Neon Tip system (Thermo Fisher).

In Utero Electroporation of Nkx2.1 cDNA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The PCMV6-AC vector containing the human Nkx2.1 cDNA full length (transcript variant 1) was purchased from Origene (NM_001079668). Mouse Nkx2.1 cDNA full length containing vector was obtained from Stewart Anderson's lab (University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine). Briefly, 1 μl of plasmid mixtures of human-Nkx2.1 ormouse-Nkx2.1 cDNA and pCAGG-EGFP(3:1 ratio, 2 μg/μl total mixture concentration) was injected into the cerebral ventricles followed by IUE as described earlier (Dominguez et al., 2013 (link); Gal et al., 2006 (link)).

Necdin overexpression in ovarian cancer cells

Human necdin cDNA in a pCMV6-AC vector (OriGene, Rockville, MD) was transfected into SKOv3ip and HEY ovarian cancer cells using MegaTran 1.0 transfection reagent (OriGene). Twenty four hours post transfection, cells were reseeded in 6-well plates and selected with G418 media (1.2 mg/ml for SKOv3ip and 0.7 mg/ml for HEY). The cells were allowed to grow for 12 days until visible colonies were formed and then stained with 0.5% methylene blue. Colonies containing at least 50 cells were scored.

Human NGLY1 cDNA in pCMV6-AC vector (clone SC320763, OriGene) was used as template for site-directed mutagenesis to introduce the c.1205_1207del clinical mutation (Enns et al., 2014 (link)), which results in the generation of NGLY1-ΔR402. Wild-type and ΔR402 cDNAs were transferred from pCMV6-AC to pUAST-attB vector by EcoRI-XhoI double digestion and ligation, verified by sequencing, and integrated into the VK31 docking site by ΦC31-mediated transgenesis (Bischof et al., 2007 (link); Venken et al., 2006 (link)).

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.
