The immunofluorescence analysis was performed in the following way. Round colonies of EOS-selected, YAP-treated cells were placed on 30-mm glass bottom dishes (MATSUNAMI, Tokyo, Japan, D11530H) and grown for 24 hours in YAP medium. On the day of immunostaining, the colonies were washed with PBS, fixed with 4% PFA (Wako, Tokyo, Japan,163-20145) for 15 min at room temperature, and permeabilized with 0.5% Triton (Sigma-Aldrich, X100-5ML, Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) in PBS with 10% FBS addition for 30 min. The following antibodies were applied: primary anti-SUSD2 (Sigma, HPA004117-100UL, Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) and anti-KLF17 (Sigma, HPA024629-100UL, Merck, Darmstadt, Germany), in PBS with 10% FBS addition, for 1 hour at room temperature. After 1 hour, the cells were washed with PBS twice and incubated with secondary antibodies: goat anti-rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) (Abcam, Tokyo, Japan, ab150080, 1/500 dilution) in PBS with 10% FBS addition, for 1 hour at room temperature. Then, the cells were washed 4 times with PBS, and 2 mL of PBS per dish was added for imaging. Imaging was performed using a KEYENCE BZ-9000 BIOREVO fluorescent microscope.

The cells were cultivated for 72 h, with subsequent fixation with 4% paraformaldehyde in chamber slides (Falcon® Culture Slides; Corning, NY, USA and Sarstedt, Nümbrecht, Germany). The cells were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton-X and sequentially treated with goat serum, primary monoclonal mouse anti-human CK 7 antibody (DAKO Corporation, Clone OV-TL 12/30, 1:200 dilution), primary monoclonal rabbit anti-human E-cadherin antibody (Cell Signaling Technology, Frankfurt/Main, Germany, #3195, 1:200 dilution), primary monoclonal mouse anti-human vimentin antibody (Abcam, Cambridge, UK, V1-RE/1, ab3974,1:200 dilution), anti-Mouse Alexa Fluor® 594 secondary antibody (Abcam, #150116, 1:500 dilution), and anti-Rabbit Alexa Fluor® 488 secondary antibody (Abcam, #150077, 1:500 dilution). Appropriate negative controls were performed. Coverslips were mounted with Fluoromount-G medium including DAPI (Southern Biotech, Huntsville, AL, USA). The cells were visualized using a BZ-9000 (BIOREVO) fluorescent microscope (Keyence, Osaka, Japan) with a 20× PlanFluor EL NA 0.45 Ph1 objective lens under 0.285 s of exposure time for CK7 and 0.2 s of exposure time for E-cadherin and vimentin.

Cell staining was performed as previously described51 (link). Briefly, cells were cultured on glass coverslips, fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde in phosphate-buffered (PBS, pH 7.4) for 15 min at room temperature, and then incubated with anti- PAX6 polyclonal antibodies (1:100, Biolegend, San Diego, CA, USA) overnight at 4 °C. Then, the cells were incubated with Alexa 555-conjugated secondary antibodies (1:200, Thermo Fisher Scientific) for 1 h at room temperature. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (Nacalai Tesque). Fluorescence images were obtained using a BIOREVO BZ-9000 fluorescent microscope (Keyence, Osaka, Japan). PAX6 positive nuclei were counted using the ImageJ software (NIH, Bethesda, MD, USA).

Subcellular Localization of OsCCD4b-GFP

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the construction of OsCCD4b-GFP, the ORF of OsCCD4b (Os12g24800) without the stop codon was amplified by PCR and subcloned into the corresponding site on the pE7133-GFP vector [55 (link)], fusing GFP in-frame to the C-terminus of OsCCD4b. The OsCCD4b-GFP fusion protein was introduced into rice protoplast cells using polyethylene glycol 3350, according to Bart et al. [56 (link)]. Localization analysis of OsCCD4b was performed as previously described by Kiryu et al. [23 (link)]. GFP fluorescence was observed using a BIOREVO BZ-9000 fluorescent microscope (Keyence, Osaka, Japan) equipped with a GFP-specific filter unit.

Nuclei of C2C12 myotubes were fixed and stained using propidium iodide. Each well was photographed in six randomly selected regions at × 20 magnifications at day 3 or day 5 post-differentiation induction using a BIOREVO BZ-9000 fluorescent microscope (Keyence, Osaka, Japan). The number of nuclei incorporated in myotubes and the total number of nuclei were scored. Fusion index was calculated as the percentage of total nuclei incorporated in myotubes. Diameter of myotubes was measured using BIOREVO BZ-9000 software (Keyence).

On the next day, the sections were incubated with Alexa Fluor®488 or 594-conjugated donkey anti-mouse (1:500; from Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). Control slides were incubated without primary antibodies to further confirm the specificity of the IR. The slides were examined with a BIOREVO BZ-9000 fluorescent microscope (Keyence, Itasca, IL, USA)

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.
