Peracetylated 2-Acetamido-1,3,6-tri-O-acetyl-4-deoxy-4-fluoro-D-glucopyranose (4F-GlcNAc) and 2-Acetamido-1,3,6-tri-O-acetyl-4-deoxy-4-fluoro-D-galactopyranose (4F-GalNAc) were from previous studies 20 (link), 27 (link). Peracetylated 1-(Naphthalen-2-ylmethanol) 2-Acetamido-3,4,6-tri-O-Acetyl-2-Deoxy-1-Thio-β-D-Glucopyranoside, GlcNAc-β-S-NAP (abbreviated SNAP), and corresponding peracetylated O-glycoside GlcNAc-β-O-NAP (abbreviated ONAP) were recently described 21 (link). Azido-derivatized carbohydrates ManNAz (N-azido acetyl-mannosamine tetraacylated), GalNAz (N-azido acetyl-galactosamine tetraacylated) and GlcNAz (N-azido acetyl-glucosamine tetraacylated) were purchased from ThermoFisher. Nucleotide-sugars and nucleotides were obtained from either Carbosynth (Compton, UK) or Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO). All other chemicals were from either ThermoFisher or Sigma unless otherwise mentioned.

Visualizing Mucin Glycosylation in Mice

A total volume of 0.5 mL per mouse of the Click-iT reagent N-azidoacetylgalactosamine (GalNAz) (C33365, Thermo Fischer Scientific) was prepared by dissolving 2.6 mg of GalNAz in 100 µL Dimethyl sulfoxide (A3672, AppliChem GmbH) and diluted in 1 mL in PBS (0.15 mol/L NaCl, 5 mmol/L sodium phosphate buffer, pH 7.4). The injections were given intraperitoneally. Mice were sacrificed 3 h after the GalNAz injection. Paraffin-embedded samples were dewaxed, hydrated, and washed in PBS. Membrane sections were incubated with 20 µL of the reaction mix from the tetramethylrhodamine (TAMRA) glycoprotein detection kit (C10410, Thermo Fischer Scientific) and incubated at room temperature for 2 h, followed by one wash in PBS. The sections were mounted with DAPI containing Prolong Gold anti-fade reagent (P36935, Thermo Fisher Scientific) to visualize DNA (nuclei). The intensity and localization of freshly produced mucins were evaluated in a blinded fashion at 40x magnification on an Eclipse 90i fluorescence microscope (Nikon). Due to that co-stain with antibody against Muc2 affected the TAMRA intensity; goblet cells were identified based on cellular morphology.

Metabolic Labeling and Imaging of Cells

Sugar ManNAz, GalNAz, GlcNAz and Alexa Fluor 488 DIBO Alkyne (DIBO488) were purchased from ThermoFisher. Live cells were treated with 50 μM sugars at either 2, 6, 24 and 48 hours. Afterwards, cells were washed and were labelled with 15 μM DIBO488 and 5 μM COA-1 for 1 h at 37 °C, followed by counterstaining with nuclear tracker, DRAQ5. Cells were imaged using the Operetta High-Content Imaging System (PerkinElmer) with a 40× objective lens.

ZY-312 was cultured for 65 h at 37 °C under anaerobic conditions (80% N2, 10% H2, 10% CO2) in an anaerobic glove box in basal peptone-yeast broth (OXOID, United Kingdom) with GalNAz (Thermofisher, United States) at a final concentration of 100 μM. Bacterium were spun down and washed three times in 1 × phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) supplemented with 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) when the OD600 value ranged from 0.7 to 1.4. The bacteria pellet was resuspended in 10 ml PBS supplemented with 1% BSA (Sigma, Germany) and 20 mM AF647-DIBO (100 μl per vial) and each vial of the bacterium suspension was kept separately. To determine the optimal incubation time, bacteria suspensions were incubated for 3 h, 5 h, 7 h, and overnight in dark on a shake flask. After incubation, bacteria were pelleted and washed five times with PBS supplemented with 3% BSA. Finally, the bacteria were resuspended either in PBS for in vivo tracing or in 90% glycerol for fluorescent microscope observation.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
CSF3R constructs (WT, T618I, T640N) were transfected into 293T17 cells in the presence of 50μM GalNAz (Thermo Scientific) and incubated for 48 hours (14 (link)). Cells were washed then incubated in 1ml PBS with 1% FBS and 30μM DBCO-sulfo-link-biotin conjugate (Click Chemistry Tools) for 1 hour. Cells were then lysed in cell lysis buffer (Cell Signaling Technologies) containing complete mini protease inhibitor tablets (Roche). Lysates were incubated overnight in the presence of streptavidin-agarose (Thermo Scientific) and the precipitated biotinylated proteins were subjected to immunoblot analysis for CSF3R (10 (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.
