Alexa Fluor conjugated secondary antibodies were used for visualization of antigens by indirect immunofluorescence. Anti-core serum was used at a 1:250 dilution and all other antibodies were used at a 1:1000 dilution.

E13.5 dorsal telencephalon was microdissected, avoiding the lateral ganglionic eminence and structures ventral to it. The cortex was separated from the meninges, and cortices from samples of the same genotype were pooled and sliced into small, uniformly sized pieces. Tissues were digested with 2.5% Trypsin (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA), then dissociated into single cells by repeated pipetting. Cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA), incubated with primary antibodies, and then secondary antibodies. Each step was carried out in 4°C for 30 mins, with rotation. RNAsin (NEB, Ipswich, MA) was added to buffers to prevent RNA degradation (Hrvatin et al., 2014 (link)). Cells were sorted using FACS Aria IIU (BD).

Cells were lysed with RIPA buffer (Westnet, BP-115-500) supplemented with fresh protease inhibitors (Roche, 11873580001). Lysates were incubated on ice for 15 min and cleared through centrifugation (16000 g) for 15 min at 4°C. Supernatants were collected and protein concentration were determined using BCA assay kit (Thermo Scientific Pierce, 23227). Western Blotting analysis were performed as described23 (link). After blocking, blots were incubated with primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. Primary antibodies were used as follows: mouse anti-FUS (1:200, Santa Cruz, SC-373698; validated in Supplemental Figure 7); rabbit anti-Nup62 (1:1000, Bethyl Laboratories, A304-942A; validated in Supplemental Figure 7); mouse anti-Tuj1 (1:1000, BioLegend, 801201); mouse anti-maltose binding protein (Cell Signalling Technology, 2396; validated in Supplemental Figure 7). Followed by washes, blots were incubated with secondary antibodies as described23 (link) and visualized using Odyssey Infrared Imager (LiCor, 9120). Image J was used for densitometry measurements. Data collection and analysis were not performed blind to the conditions of the experiments.

Cells were mounted in vectashield hardset antifade mounting medium (Vector Labs). Images were obtained with either a high-resolution camera (Leica Microsystems LTd DFC340FX) using the microscope Leica DMRB or Leica confocal laser scanning microscope or IN Cell Analyzer 2000. At least three random fields per well were taken imaged the stained cells automatedly counted using IN Cell Analyzer software or manually counted using ImageJ (in cases where complex cellular morphology could not be accurately segmented using automated software).

For immunocytochemical analysis, differentiated neurons were grown on a 16-well format chamber slide System Nunc™ Lab-Tek™ (Thermo Fisher Scientific), previously coated with poly-d-lysine (Sigma Aldrich) and laminin (Sigma Aldrich), and fixed in a 4% paraformaldehyde solution. Next, cells were permeabilized in 0.5% Triton X-100—PBS and blocked with a blocking solution (3% BSA in PBS) at RT. Immunostaining was performed by the addition of primary antibodies to co-stain the DA neuronal marker TH (rabbit anti-TH, Merck Millipore MAB318) and the class III member of the beta-tubulin family (mouse anti-TUJ1, Biolegend). Subsequently, cells were incubated with the appropriate fluorescently labeled secondary antibodies (goat anti-mouse Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated, goat anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor 555-conjugated, Thermo Fisher Scientific), nuclei were stained by adding NucBlue™ Fixed Cell Stain (Thermo Fisher Scientific), and the slides were mounted with Dako Fluorescence mounting medium.

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.
