Quantitative Ligand Binding Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Based on the calibration function (established for each binding experiment), the concentrations of NO711 resulting from the corresponding binding samples were calculated using Analyst v.1.6.3 (Sciex, Darmstadt, Germany) as described previously (Zepperitz et al., 2006 (link)). Remaining bound reporter ligand was calculated as the percentage of the specifically bound reporter ligand in presence of a sublibrary compared to specifically bound reporter ligand in the absence of a sublibrary. All binding experiments were performed in triplicates and results are given as means ± SD. For hit identification, all chromatographic parameters and normalized peak areas (area sublibrary component/area internal standard) of each individual sublibrary component in the corresponding MRM chromatograms of samples representing total and non-specific binding were calculated via Analyst v.1.6.3 (Sciex, Darmstadt, Germany). Consequently, all library components showing significant specific binding as difference of the normalized areas of total and non-specific binding (one site student t-test, n = 3, CL = 97.5%) were classified as hits.

Lipids were separated on a reverse-phase liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-MS/MS) platform using a Prominence chromatographic system (Shimadzu Corporation, OR, USA). Instrument control and data processing were done with Analyst v1.6 and Multi-Quant v2.1 software (AB Sciex, MA, USA). The separation was achieved on a Zorbax C18, 1.8 μm, 50 × 2.1 mm column (Agilent Technologies, Mississauga, ON). The flow rate was set to 300 μL/min using a linear gradient of mobile phase A and mobile phase B. Mobile phase A and B consisted of tetrahydrofuran, methanol, and water in the ratio 20:20:60 (v/v/v) and 75:20:5 (v/v/v), respectively. Both A and B contained 10 mM ammonium formate. The elution program was as follows: start with 0% solvent B; increase to 100% B at 8.00 min; maintained at 100% B for 2.5 min; and back to 0% B over 0.5 min. The column was finally re-equilibrated to the starting conditions (0% mobile phase B) for 3 min before the next sample injection. Diacylglycerol (DG) and triacylglycerol (TG) species were separated in an isocratic fashion (100 μL/min) by employing 85% mobile phase B over 8 min. The analytical column and autosampler were maintained at 50°C and 25°C, respectively, during the analysis. The injection volume was 5 μL.

Analyst v.1.6 (AB Sciex, Framingham, MA, USA) was used for data acquisition and quantitative analysis. Percent relative error (
%RE=[(Ce-Ct)Ct]×100% where Ce is experimental concentration and Ct is the theoretical concentration) and percent relative standard deviation (
%RSD=[SDCavg]×100% where SD is the standard deviation, and Cavg is the average concentration calculated) were calculated to determine method precision and accuracy. This method was characterized using CDC Multi-Rule Quality Control System (MRQCS) with no more than two curves per day by four analysts over four weeks (Caudill et al., 2008 ).

The spectrometric data were acquired using a TripleTOF 5600 System (SCIEX, Framingham, MA, USA) fit to a Nano-Spray III source (SCIEX, Framingham, MA, USA) and a pulled quartz tip-type emitter (New Objectives, Woburn, MA, USA), which was controlled with the franchise software Analyst v1.6 (AB-SCIEX, Concord, ON, Canada). The MS data procurements were undertaken as per the following conditions: the ion spray voltage was set to 2300 V, the curtain gas was set to 30, the nebulizer gas was set to 15, and the interface heater temperature was 150 °C. High sensitivity mode was used for the whole data acquisition process. The MS1 accumulation time was set to 250 ms, while 350–1500 Da was the allowed mass range. At least 30 product ion scans were collected based on the MS1 survey intensity, exceeding a threshold of 120 counts/s and a 2+ to 5+ charge-state. A value of ½ peak width was set for the dynamic exclusion. The collision energy was adjusted to all precursor ions for the collision-induced dissociation for the iTRAQ data acquisition, and the Q2 transmission window for 100 Da was at 100%. Three independent biological replicates were included for each sample in the experiment.

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.
