Stored blood was washed 5–7 times with PBS at 30,000 ×g for 25 min to remove hemoglobin. The pellets were resuspended in lysis buffer (50 mM Tris [pH 8.0], 5 mM EDTA, 1% Nonidet P-40) and sonicated for 2 min in 30-s intervals. The samples were boiled in SDS-PAGE buffer for 5 min. Isolation of proteins from ISE6 cells infected with the St. Maries strain and uninfected ISE6 cells was done as previously described (Ramabu et al., 2010 (link)). Protein samples were electrophoresed on precast 12.5% Criterion Tris-HCL Gels (Bio-Rad) at 100 V for 3 h. After transfer to nitrocellulose and overnight blocking in I-Block reagent (Applied Biosystems) with 0.5% Tween 20, proteins were detected using the previously described monoclonal antibodies ANAF16C1 at 0.02 μg/ml for Msp5 and ANAO24D1 at 3 μg/ml for Aaap proteins (Eriks et al., 1994 (link)). Msp5, a constitutively expressed protein, was detected as a control to demonstrate equal loading in each lane. Antigen binding was detected with a 1:7000 dilution of alkaline phosphatase-conjugated goat anti-mouse secondary antibody from Western-Star chemiluminescent immunoblot detection systems (Applied Biosystems) according to manufacturer's specifications.

HepG2-C8 cells were collected and harvested in RIPA lysis buffer with protease inhibitors. Protein levels were measured by BCA assay and equal amounts of protein (20 μg) were mixed with Laemmli SDS sample buffer (Boston Bioproducts, Ashland, MA) and denatured at 95°C for 5 min. Protein from each sample were loaded and separated on 4–15% Criterion Tris-HCl gels (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA) and transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane (Millipore, Bedford, MA). Membranes were blocked with 5% BSA in Tris-buffered saline 0.1% Tween 20 (TBST) then incubated with primary antibodies recognizing HO-1 and GCLC overnight at 4°C. Primary antibodies were diluted at 1:500 for β-actin, 1:1000 for HO-1, and 1:250 for GCLC. After primary antibody incubation, the membrane was washed three times with TBST then incubated with secondary antibodies conjugated with horseradish peroxidase for 1 h at room temperature. Membranes were washed an additional three times and bands were visualized using SuperSignal enhanced chemoluminescence (ECL) reagents detected with a Bio-Rad Gel Documentation 2000 system.

Cell lysates and conditioned media were subjected to protein dosage and immunoblot analyses as described above, using 4–20% Criterion Tris-HCl gels (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA). Immunoblots were probed with a rabbit polyclonal antibody raised against the C-terminus of PGRN (anti-PGRNC-term, 1: 500 dilution; formerly Zymed; Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA). An antibody against β-tubulin (dilution 1:2000; Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA) was used as a loading control. Quantification of PGRN in cell media was performed by measuring the band intensity of PGRN in each lane using a Syngene Imaging system (Syngene, Frederick, MD, USA). An empty well served as a background. The mean and standard deviation (SD) were calculated. Student's t-test was performed.

Example 5

Aspergillus oryzae JaL355 (WO 2002/40694) protoplasts were prepared according to the method of Christensen et al., 1988, Bio/Technology 6: 1419-1422, which were transformed with approximately 2 μg of pSMai207. The transformation yielded about 30 transformants. Ten transformants were isolated to individual Minimal Medium plates.

Confluent Minimal Medium plates of each of the transformants were washed with 5 ml of 0.01% TWEEN® 20 and inoculated separately into 25 ml of M410 medium in 125 ml glass shake flasks and incubated at 34° C., 250 rpm. After 5 days incubation, 5 μl of supernatant from each culture were analyzed on CRITERION® Tris-HCl gels (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, Calif., USA) with a CRITERION® Cell (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, Calif., USA), according to the manufacturer's instructions. The resulting gels were stained with BIO-SAFE™ Coomassie Stain (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, Calif., USA). SDS-PAGE profiles of the cultures showed that the majority of the transformants had an expected 24 KDa band size. A confluent plate of transformant 3 was washed with 10 ml of 0.01% TWEEN® 80 and inoculated into a 2 liter Fernbach containing 500 ml of M410 medium to generate broth for characterization of the enzyme. The culture was harvested on day 5 and filtered using a 0.22 μm EXPRESS™ PLUS Membrane (Millipore, Billerica, Mass., USA).

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.
