Expifectamine transfection enhancers

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific

ExpiFectamine transfection enhancers are a family of cationic lipid-based transfection reagents designed to enhance the efficiency of transient protein expression in mammalian cells. These reagents are formulated to facilitate the delivery of DNA, RNA, or other macromolecules into the cells for various research applications.

TfR-sfGFP-myc tag-SpyCatcher variants were expressed in suspension Expi293 cells (Thermo Fisher) cultured in Expi293 Expression media (Thermo Fisher) supplemented with 50 U/mL penicillin/streptomycin (Thermo Fisher). Cells were grown in a humidified Multitron Cell incubator (Infors HT) at 37 °C with 7% CO2, rotating at 110 to 125 rpm. Cells at a density of 3.0 × 106 cells/mL were transfected with 2.7 μL ExpiFectamine 293 Reagent per 1 μg of plasmid DNA. ExpiFectamine transfection enhancers (Thermo Fisher) were added 16 to 22 h after transfection. Cells were grown for 48 h and then analyzed.

Three component expressions
were carried out with either (i) TfR-sfGFP-SnoopTag2 plus HA-MBP-SnoopLigase2
N775Q-KDEL plus RBD-DogTag2-SpyTag or (ii) TfR-sfGFP-SnoopTag2 plus
HA-MBP-SnoopLigase2 N775Q-KDEL plus RBD-DogTag2 NA-SpyTag in Expi293F
cells (Thermo Fisher) cultured in Expi293 expression media (Thermo
Fisher). Cells at a density of 3.0 × 106 cells/mL
that had previously been growing in a medium supplemented with 50
U/mL penicillin/streptomycin (Thermo Fisher) were transfected in Expi293
expression media with no antibiotics present. Plasmids were transiently
transfected with 2.7 μL of ExpiFectamine 293 Reagent per 1 μg
of plasmid DNA with equal amounts of each plasmid added in each of
the three component transfections. A mock transfection where the plasmid
DNA was omitted was also carried out in parallel. Cells were grown
in a humidified Multitron Cell incubator (Infors HT) at 37 °C
with 7% (v/v) CO2, rotating at 110–125 rpm. ExpiFectamine
transfection enhancers (Thermo Fisher) were added 16–22 h after
transfection. Cells were grown for 4 days and then analyzed.

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.
