PP7-based mRNP purification was performed as previously described (Hogg and Goff 2010 (link)). For SDS-PAGE, complexes were eluted with RNase A/T1 Cocktail (AM2286; Ambion), diluted 1:50 in HLB150, as previously described (Hogg and Goff 2010 (link)). For mass spectrometry, samples were eluted in HLB supplemented with 1 M NaCl. For isolation of protein-stripped mRNAs, PP7-based mRNP purifications were performed and mRNA phenol-extracted using TRIzol (15596026; Invitrogen). Capped and polyadenylated in vitro transcribed NLuc RNA was prepared using ApaI-linearized NLuc template DNA and the mMessage mMachine T7 Transcription (AM1344; Ambion) and Poly(A) Tailing (AM1350; Ambion) kits according to manufacturer instructions. NLucβwtβTP and NLucβwtSMG5TP IVT mRNAs were prepared using PCR-amplified cDNA as a template for the in vitro transcription reactions (PCR primers: 5′ Forward: TAA TAC GAC TCA CTA TAG GGA GAC; 3′ Reverse: AGG AAA GGA CAG TGG GAG TG).

Briefly, capsid protein expression plasmids containing synthetic codon-modified VP1, VP2, and VP3 genes were co-transfected with a reporter plasmid encoding Gaussia luciferase (phGluc) into 293TT cells. Forty eight hours after transfection, the cells were suspended at >100 million cells/mL in Dulbecco’s phosphate buffered saline (DPBS) followed by a 15 min incubation at 37°C with neuraminidase V (Sigma). Cells were then lysed by addition of 0.5% Triton X-100, and RNase A/T1 cocktail (Ambion). The lysate was buffered by addition of 25 mM ammonium sulfate pH 9 and incubated at 37°C overnight to allow capsid maturation, then clarified by spinning twice for 10 min at 5,000 × g, with gentle mixing of the supernatant between spins. Reporter vector particles were purified out of the clarified supernatant by ultracentrifugation through a 27–33–39% iodixanol (Optiprep, Sigma) step gradient prepared in DPBS with a total of 0.8 M NaCl.

CoIPs were performed essentially as described in the previous section with the following modifications: 50 ODs of cells were grown at 30°C in EMM 0.5X and harvested by centrifugation. Cell pellets were resuspended in 2 ml lysis buffer to make ‘pop-corn’. 1 mg of pre-washed rabbit IgG-conjugated M-270 Epoxy Dynabeads (Invitrogen, #14311D) was used for immunoprecpitation in the presence or the absence of RNaseA/T1 cocktail (Ambion, #AM2286). Following washes, precipitates and input fractions were boiled at 95°C for 10 min in the presence of sample loading buffer and analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting using 1:3000 peroxydase-conjugated antiperoxydase (PAP) (Sigma, #P1291, RRID:AB_1079562), 1:3000 monoclonal anti-FLAG antibody (Sigma, #F3165, RRID:AB_259529), 1:3000 monoclonal anti-GFP antibody (Roche, #11814460001, RRID:AB_390913) and 1:4000 goat anti-mouse IgG-HRP (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, #sc-2005, RRID:AB_631736). Detection was performed using SuperSignal West Pico Chemiluminescent Substrate (ThermoFischer Scientific, #34080), ECL Select reagent (GE Healthcare, #RPN2235) and a Fujifilm LAS-4000 imager.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Genomic DNA was extracted using DNeasy Blood and Tissue kit (Qiagen) following manufacturer's protocol or standard phenol chloroform precipitation and eluted in water. DNA was treated with RNase A/T1 Cocktail (Ambion) overnight at 37°C followed by ethanol precipitation. Quantitation of 5mC in genomic DNA was done by isocratic high performance reverse phase liquid chromatography (HPLC) as previously described (28 (link)) with the following alterations. A Dionex UM 3000 HPLC system was used complete with a column chiller, C18 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm 5 μM APEX ODS, Grace Discovery Sciences), and column guard (Phomenex). The mobile phase was 50 mM ammomium phosphate (monobasic) pH4.1. The column was chilled to 8°C to improve peak separation. Deoxyribonucleotides (dNMPs) were detected at their extinction maxima using a Dionex 3000 multiple wavelength detector: dCMP, 276 nm; 5mdCMP, 282 nm. Quantifications were calculated from the area under each peak using the respective extinction coefficients (dCMP, 8.86 × 103; 5mdCMP 9.0 × 103).

Cells were stimulated with rapamycin for 24 h and extracts prepared in lysis buffer as described above. Oligo dT cellulose (Ambion) was resuspended in lysis buffer twice before incubating it in the presence of cell extracts on a rotating wheel at 4°C during 2 h. Cellulose-bound extracts were washed five times. RNAse treatment was done using 1/100 RNAse A/T1 cocktail (Ambion) at 37°C during 13 min shaking. Extracts were washed once more and cellulose was pelleted and resuspended in lysis buffer, boiled and loaded onto bis/acrylamide gels for CBP80/eIF4E blotting.

RNase A/T1 cocktail (500 U/mL RNase A and 20,000 U/mL RNase T1) (ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) was used for enriching RNA duplexes. For optimization, 1 μg of annealed oligos were digested in 150 μL of digestion buffer (300 mM NaCl, 10 mM Tris–Cl, 5 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), pH 7.4) with different concentrations of RNase A/T1 (1:100, 1:200, and 1:500) at 37 °C for 30 min. For optimizing the RNase A/T1 condition in the context of cellular RNA, 1 × 106 cells were lysed on ice with 50 μL of radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) buffer (25 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.6, 150 mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 1% sodium deoxycholate, 0.1% SDS) (ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). After adding different annealed RNA oligos as spike-in, cell lysates were digested in an additional 100 μL of digestion buffer with RNase A/T1 (1:200) at 37 °C for 30 min. RNA was separated on 15% acrylamide Tris/borate/EDTA (TBE) (K-D Medical, Columbia, MD, USA) native gels and stained with SYBR gold (ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA).

Drosophila S2R+ cells were plated in 6-well plates at a density of 5.106 cells/well and incubated for 24 hr at 25°C. Cells were then transfected with 600 ng of plasmids using Effecten transfection reagents (Qiagen, 301425) and supplemented after 12 hr with Schneider’s Insect Medium containing fetal bovine serum (10%) and penicillin/streptomycin (1%). After 3 days of expression at 25°C, cells transfected with either pAGW + pAFlag-CamkII or pAGFP-Imp + pAFlag-CamkII plasmids were harvested and lysed in DXB buffer (HEPES pH 6.8, 2.5 mM; KCl, 50 mM; MgCl2, 1 mM; DTT, 1 mM; sucrose, 250 mM; NP-40, 0.05%) supplemented with Halt Protease Inhibitor Cocktail 1:100 (Thermofisher, #78429). This initial lysate was used as input material and then split into two halves, one treated (+ RNase) with 10 mg/µL RNase A/T1 Cocktail (ThermoFisher scientific, #EN0551) and the other not (− RNase). Both cell lysates were subsequently incubated with ChromoTek GFP-Trap beads (ChromoTek, gt-10, #70112001A) for 2 hr at 4°C. Three washes were then performed with DBX supplemented with Halt Protease Inhibitor Cocktail 1:100, and bound fractions eluted in SDS 2× buffer by incubating the beads at 95°C for 5 min.

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.
