Fluorescent Labeling of Shiga Toxin 2B

We have previously described the GFP-SNX1 and GFP-Rab5 plasmids used in this study [16 (link)]. Monoclonal anti-GM130 (#610822) was from BD Biosciences (San Jose, CA, USA). Tamoxifen (TAM) was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA). Derivative compounds were synthesized at the Center for Innovative Drug Discovery (University of Texas at San Antonio, San Antonio, TX, USA; see Supplementary Materials). All compounds were dissolved in DMSO and used at 10 µM final concentration unless specified otherwise.
STx2 holotoxin and STx2B were obtained from BEI Resources (Manassas, VA, USA). For transport assays, STx2B was labeled using Alexa Fluor™ 555 Microscale Protein Labeling Kit using manufacturer’s instructions (ThermoFischer, Waltham, MA, USA).

Cytotoxicity Assay for Shiga Toxins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
TAM, TOR, RAL, BAZ, 4HOT, END, OSP, BFA1, and CLQ were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. TAM was used at 10 μM unless specified otherwise. TOR, RAL, BAZ, 4HOT, END, and OSP were all used at 10 μM. BFA1 was used at 100 nM, and CLQ was used at 50 μM. DMSO was added at 0.1% when used as a vehicle control. Leupeptin and pepstatin were used at final concentrations of 100 and 50 μg/ml, respectively, as described by us previously (8 (link), 9 (link)). Compounds were present in the media during transport assays performed using STx1B or STx2B and during exposure to STx1 or STx2 holotoxins, which were obtained from BEI Resources. Cell viability was assessed using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide reagent, as described by us recently (9 (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.
