Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Statistical analysis was performed, according to the procedures described in previously published papers [9 (link),18 (link),19 (link),20 (link),30 (link),31 (link),32 (link),33 (link),34 (link),35 (link)]. However, the statistical analysis procedures are briefly described as follows: “The images of 2D PAGE gels obtained from the renal proteome fractionation experiments (Groups C-60 and Hg-60) were analyzed with ImageMaster 2D Platinum 7.0 software (GE Healthcare). The analyses with ImageMaster 2D Platinum 7.0 software allowed us to obtain correlations between the images of gels (matching), through equivalence analysis between the protein spots in each 2D PAGE run. This also allows a comparison analysis among the protein spots in terms of distribution, volume, relative intensity, isoelectric point and molecular mass. The results of mercury determinations were expressed as M ± SD, and subjected to Student’s t test and F test to identify any significant differences, using SAS software (version 8). The significance level was set at 5%, that is, p < 0.05”. For protein expression data, statistical analysis was performed using the Protein Lynx Global Server software (version 2.5) (PLGS) of the nanoAcquity UPLC Xevo QTof MS equipment, as described in the previous section.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Salivary gland protein samples were immobilized on IPG strips (17 cm) of pH 3–10 (Linear, Bio-Rad) using a Protean IEF Cell (Bio-Rad) and kept for isoelectric focusing with a default cell temperature of 20°C and a maximum current of 50 mA/strip. Briefly, 300 μl sample in rehydration buffer were thawed and each of them were pipetted as a line along the edge of a channel. IPG strips were gently placed (gel side up) on to the sample and finally layered with 2–3 ml of mineral oil. The sample supernatants were rehydrated on IPG strips at 20°C overnight after which IEF was run in three steps: 1. 250V for 20 min Linear; 2. 10000V for 2.5 hrs Linear; 3. 10000V for 5–7 hrs and 40000 V-hrs in Rapid mode. After IEF run the strips were equilibrated in equilibration buffer I (6M urea, 0.375M Tris-HCl, pH 8.8, 2% SDS, 20% glycerol and 2% DTT) and equilibration buffer II (6M urea, 0.375M Tris-HCl, pH 8.8, 2% SDS, 20% glycerol and 2.5% iodoacetamide for 10 min. The second dimension was carried out on 12% SDS-PAGE on Mini Protean cell (Bio-Rad). The 2D gels were silver stained with FOCUS-FAST silverTM stain (G-Biosciences) after the run to visualize the spots. Stained gels of both the susceptible and resistant strains were scanned and analyzed using ImageMaster 2D Platinum 7.0 software (GE Healthcare Life Sciences).

MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells were plated in 70 mm Petri dishes in complete medium. Cells were starved for overnight with serum free medium. Cells were transiently transfected with 5 μg of pcDNA-Akt and empty vector with 7.5 μl of FuGENE® HD transfection reagent in 100 μl of Opti-MEM®I reduced serum media according to manufacturer’s protocol. After 24 h of transfection, the cells were treated with Iturin A for 24 h in serum free medium. siRNA-Akt was used to silence Akt expression. Briefly, cells were seeded in 70 mm Petri plates. After 70% confluency, cells were transfected with 14 mM siRNA-Akt in 6 μl DharmaFECT 4 Transfection Reagent (Thermo scientific) and 1 ml Opti-MEM®I reduced serum media according to manufacturer’s protocol. After 24 h of transfection, cells were treated with Iturin A for 24 h in serum free medium. After Iturin A treatment, both pcDNA-Akt and siRNA-Akt transfected cells were lysed with NP-40 lysis buffer and the protein expression profiles were checked by immunoblotting as discussed before. ImageMaster 2D Platinum 7.0 Software (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, NJ, USA) was used to plot comparative densitometric graph of blots. Iturin A treated transfected as well as control cells were also analyzed by flow cytometry for detection of apoptosis as per above described method35 (link).

Protein Extraction and 2D Electrophoresis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Proteins were extracted using the method described by Hurkman and Tanaka (1986) (link) with certain modifications. The sample preparation procedure as well as 2D electrophoresis conditions used for separation are shown in Supplementary Table S1, and were also described in details previously (Chmielewska et al., 2016 (link)). Plant material was extracted from two biological replications and two technical repetitions were prepared from each biological sample. Image Master 2D Platinum 7.0 software (IMP7, GE Healthcare, USA) was used for quantitative gel analysis. Protein spots’ relative volume (%vol.) was quantified. This parameter is relatively independent of sample loading and staining variation. In the case of roots, we could not proceed with 11 RILs due to insufficient material. For each genotype and tissue, four gels in control and four in drought conditions were analysed. The images of 2D electrophoretic gels were deposited in the Dryad Digital Repository (https://doi.org/10.5061/dryad.6st3v7r; Rodziewicz et al., 2019 (link)).
