The ability of the newly synthesised compound RM37 to dissociate the native MDM2–p53 complex was assessed by a quantitative immuno-enzymatic assay, as previously reported [19 (link)]. Briefly, lysate samples of GBM cells were incubated for 10 min at room temperature with the solvent DMSO (control) (Sigma-Aldrich, Milan, Italy) or with increasing concentrations of the compound RM37 (from 1 nM to 50 µM) before being transferred to the wells coated with the antibody anti-MDM2 (sc-965, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, 1550 in 0.05% poly-L-ornithine) (Sigma-Aldrich, Milan, Italy). Following washings to remove unbound MDM2 and BSA treatment to block nonspecific sites, each sample was incubated for 90 min with the anti-p53 antibody (sc-6243, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, 15250 in 5% milk). The levels of the MDM2–p53 complex were quantified using an HRP-conjugated antibody and the TMB substrate.

Co-IP experiment was performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions of Pierce Co-IP kit (Thermo Scientific, #26149). NPCs were harvested and homogenized in ice-cold lysis buffer (25 mM Tris, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1% NP-40 and 5% glycerol; pH 7.4) with 2× complete protease inhibitor cocktails (Roche).

The resulting supernatant was pre-cleared for 1 h with Pierce Control Agarose Resin. A monoclonal antibody against HDAC1 (BioVersion, 3601-30) or MDM2 (Santa Cruz, sc-965) was incubated with AminoLink Plus coupling Resin for 2 h and washed 3 times with coupling buffer (10 mM sodium phosphate, 150 Mm NaCl; pH 7.2). Meanwhile, a monoclonal antibody against IgG (Cell signaling, #5415s) was utilized as a negative control. The pre-cleared lysates (1 mg of proteins) were immunoprecipitated with antibody-coated Resin at 4 °C for 2 h. After three washes with lysis buffer, the precipitates were then separated on an SDS-PAGE for protein analysis and probed with anti-MDM2 or anti-HDAC1 antibody, respectively.

Cells were harvested with Trypsin EDTA (Lonza) and lysed with IPH buffer with protease inhibitor, debris were removed, and proteins were denatured by boiling in SDS buffer and loaded on 12% SDS-PAG (Bio Rad) with PS11 protein ladder (GeneOn). Separated proteins were transferred onto 0.2-μM nitrocellulose membranes by turbo blotting for 7 minutes, 2.5A, and 25 V using the Bio Rad system. Unspecific protein binding was blocked by incubation in 5% nonfat milk in TBS-Tween0.05% for 1 hour at room temperature or overnight at 4°C. Membranes were subsequently incubated in MDM2 specific antibody Sc-813 (Santa Cruz) recognizing exon 3. Potentially expressed proteins from MDM2-Δ5 were investigated using different antibodies having their epitope in exon 3 (Sc 813, Santa Cruz), exon 8 (Sc-965, Santa Cruz), and exon 12 (OP 146, Merck Millipore), respectively. GAPDH (SantaCruz) was used as loading control. Following washing of membranes in TBS-Tween0.05%, proteins bound by the primary antibody were detected by HRP-conjugated secondary antibody (Sigma). Signals were detected using SuperSignal West Femto Chemiluminescent Substrate (Thermo Scientific) and the LAS 4000 imager (GE Healthcare).

Lysates were co-immunoprecipitated using the Co-Immunoprecipitation Kit (26149, Thermo Scientific). MDM2 (SMP14) primary Ab (sc-965, Santa Cruz) cross-linking to beads and co-IP of lysates were performed according to manufacturer’s protocol. Briefly, 5 μg of the MDM2 (SMP14) antibody was incubated with 20 μL AminoLink Plus coupling resin for covalent coupling to immobilize antibody. The antibody-coupled resin was washed, and then incubated with protein lysate at 4°C overnight. After washing the resin, antigen complexes were eluted using elution buffer. Samples were analyzed by western blotting as described above. A negative control antibody only lane was run to ensure antibody was properly crosslinked so that no heavy or light chains interfered during western blotting.

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.
