Production and Mutagenesis of EphB2 Protein

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mouse EphB2–ECD (residues 19–543) was cloned into a modified pAcGP67 baculovirus expression vector (BD Bioscience, Becton Dickinson Franklin Lakes Campus, NJ, USA), with GP67 secretion signal and human Fc fragment as C-terminal tag. Recombinant baculovirus was generated by co-transfecting the expression plasmid along with linearized BaculoGold DNA (BD Pharmingen Inc, San Diego, CA, USA) into SF9 cells. The human EphB2 full-length protein and the structure-based mutants were cloned into a pcDNA3.1 + hygromycin vector (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) for stable expression in a HEK293 cell line. Mutations were introduced by site-directed mutagenesis (Stratagene, San Diego, CA, USA) and were sequence-verified.

Recombinant Src-YEEI Kinase Production

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A human c-Src cDNA clone was modified on its C-terminal tail to encode the sequence Tyr-Glu-Glu-Ile-Pro (‘YEEI’) as described elsewhere (26 (link)). In addition, the N-terminal unique domain was replaced with a hexa-histidine tag. The resulting sequence was used to produce a recombinant baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells using BaculoGold DNA and the manufacturer’s protocol (BD Pharmingen) as previously described (27 (link)). Src-YEEI was co-expressed with the Yersinia pestis YopH phosphatase to promote dephosphorylation of the activation loop tyrosine and maintain the downregulated state (28 (link),29 (link)). Sf9 cells were grown in monolayer cultures and co-infected with the Src-YEEI and YopH baculoviruses. Cells were harvested 72 h after infection, and Src-YEEI was purified as previously described (27 (link)). Purified Src-YEEI protein was stored in 20 mM Tris–HCl, pH 8.3, containing 100 mM NaCl. Kinase protein used in the Z’Lyte in vitro kinase assays also contained 3 mM DTT. The molecular weight of purified Src-YEEI was confirmed by mass spectrometry and determined to be phosphorylated on the YEEI tail but not the activation loop (26 (link)), consistent with the structure of the downregulated conformation (6 (link)).

Heterologous Expression of CYP2J2 Mutants

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Wild-type CYP2J2 and the three R117 mutants in a modified pAUw51-CYPOR baculovirus expression vector were cotransfected with Baculogold DNA (BD Biosciences, Pharmingen, Rungis, France) into Spodopterafrugiperda Sf21 insect cells and amplified. These amplified stocks were used to infect Sf21 insect cells for the collection of microsomal fractions as previously described [63 (link)]. Cytochrome P450 amounts were determined as previously described [64 (link)] and the enzyme concentration was measured as the P450 fraction of the mutants (A450–A490 from the Fe(II)–CO difference spectra). The difference spectra of the Fe(II)–CO complexes did not significantly change as a function of time.

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.
