The pellets were resuspended with lysis buffer (0.1 M Tris-HCl, pH 7.6, 3 mM MgCl2, 0.5 mM EDTA free protease inhibitor cocktail (Merck), and 0.1% β-mercaptoethanol). The cells were sonicated on ice with 10 short pulses (10 s) followed by pauses (30 s). The suspension was centrifuged at 15,000 rpm using an Eppendorf Benchtop 5424 Microcentrifuge with an FA-45-11 rotor for 15 min at 4°C. Supernatants were collected as soluble protein. Protein concentration was determined using a Pierce bicinchoninic acid protein assay kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) with bovine serum albumin as the protein standard, before sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and western blotting. All G6PD proteins expressed were C-terminally tagged with histidine (His-Tag).

SPANXA was PCR-amplified from pcDNA3-SPANXA-FLAG generated as described above, and subcloned into pGex-4T2 vector (Addgene). One liter of cultured BL21(DE3)pLysS competent cells (Promega) previously transformed by electroporation was induced with isopropyl β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) at 0.4 mM for 4 h at RT.

Cells were lysed in 20 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl, 20 mM β-mercaptoethanol and 1X EDTA-free protease inhibitor cocktail (Merck), sonicated and centrifuged 20 min at 14,000 g at 4° C. The supernatant was incubated with 5 mL of gluthatione sepharose beads (GE Healthcare Life Sciences), pre-washed twice with lysis buffer overnight at 4° C. Beads were then washed 5 times with Hepes 25 mM pH 7.6. Elution of SPANXA was performed by on-beads digestion at RT for 9 h with 100 units of thrombin. Samples were resolved by SDS-PAGE and stained with Coomassie blue (Biorad) according to the manufacturer’s intructions. The band corresponding to SPANXA was cut from the gel and used as antigen to immunize rabbits (ProSci Inc, CA). Bleeds obtained after 3–4 immunizations were used for Westerns and IP as noted.

Rat GLUT4 with N‐terminal poly‐histidine tag and human AQP7 (Aquaporin 7, as a control in far dot western blot) with C‐terminal His‐tag were cloned into the double‐deletion strain Pichia pastoris GS115 aqy1Δ::HIS4 agp1Δ::NatMX with no endogenous aquaporins and aquaglyceroporins present [21 (link)]. The yeast cells with GLUT4 and AQP7 construct were cultured as previously described [22 (link)]. Harvested cells were lysed with high‐pressure homogenization apparatus (Biox AB, Onsala, Sweden), subsequently, membranes were isolated by ultra‐centrifugation at 145 000 x g for 90 min at 4 °C and solubilized in 20 mM sodium phosphate pH 8.0, 300 mM NaCl, 10% glycerol, 1 mM DTT, EDTA‐free protease inhibitor cocktail (Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) and 1% decyl β‐D‐maltopyranoside (DM, Anatrace, Maumee, OH, USA) for 1 h at 4 °C. Homogenate was clarified by centrifugation at 145 000 x g for 30 min, and subjected to western blot analysis. In brief, the PVDF membrane was blocked in 2% fish gelatin before incubating with GLUT4 antibody [18 (link)] and corresponding HRP conjugated secondary antibody (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) to identify GLUT4 protein in the lysate. Finally, the signal was recorded with Odyssey Fc gel‐scanning system (LI‐COR, Lincoln, NE, USA).

PAM-Tang cells were cultured in 12-well plates at a density of 1 × 106 cells/well in RPMI 1640 supplemented with 10% FBS. Thirty minutes prior to infection, the medium was replaced with RPMI 1640 with 3% FBS. Cells were then infected with S. suis 700794 or S. suis W7119 (MOI = 1) for 0, 9, or 16 h, and subsequently incubated on ice with cell lysis buffer containing PMSF (Solarbio, Beijing, China) and EDTA-free protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche, Merck KGaA, Mannheim, Germany) for 5 min. Protein concentrations were determined using Bicinchoninic Acid Protein Assay kit (Beyotime, Beijing, China). Equal amounts of protein were separated on a 12% SDS-PAGE gel and transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes (MerckMillipore, Darmstadt, Germany) for 1 h. After blocking with 5% dry milk dissolved in PBS at 4 °C overnight, membranes were incubated for 1 h at room temperature with different antibodies: anti-caspase-3, anti-apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) (1:1000, ABclonal), and anti-β-actin (1:200,000; ABclonal). After washing, the membranes were incubated with the appropriate secondary antibodies for 1 h, and visualized on the near-infrared fluorescence scanning imaging system (Odyssey CLx, Licor, Lincoln, NE, USA) to detect the target bands.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were lysed in RIPA buffer (Sigma-Aldrich) supplemented with 2× complete Mini, EDTA free protease inhibitor cocktail (Merck), and 2% SDS (ThermoFisher) and homogenized by sonication. After centrifugation at 17,000 × g at 16 °C for 20 min, the protein content of the supernatants was determined as described in the Supplementary Methods. The samples were adjusted to the same concentration (0.6–1.0 mg/mL) and MSD immunoassay was performed in singleplex using 96-well SECTOR plates (MSD) to quantify Poly(GA)/(GP) expression, as described previously20 (link). In brief, plates were coated with unlabeled anti-poly(GP) or anti-poly(GA) antibodies. After blocking, samples were loaded at 45 µg of protein per well for the poly(GP) immunoassay and at 27 µg of protein for poly(GA). Biotinylated anti-poly(GP) and anti-poly(GA) antibodies were used as detectors, followed by sulfo-tagged streptavidin (Meso Scale Discovery, R32AD). Plates were read with the MSD reading buffer (Meso Scale Discovery, R92TC) using the MSD Sector Imager 2400. Signals correspond to intensity of emitted light upon electrochemical stimulation of the assay plate. Prior to analysis, the average reading from a calibrator containing no peptide was subtracted from each reading. Negative signals were set to ‘0’.

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.
