To assess the degree of O-GlcNAcylation upon OGT and OGA expression in HEK293T/17 cells and COS-7 cells, the constructs were expressed in these cell lines for 2 d (Fig. S1, A and B). The cells were lysed, and proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE and transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane for Western blotting with an antibody against O-GlcNAcylation [RL2] (ab2739; Abcam). O-GlcNAcylation was quantified by the ratio of RL2 immunoreactivity in the entire lane to an anti-GAPDH band and then normalized to lysates from cells expressing GFP alone.

For cell staining, cells grown on coverslips were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in TBS (50 mM Tris–HCl, pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl) buffer. For specimen staining, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections of pancreatic cancer tissues were obtained. After blocking with 5% BSA (Yeasen, Shanghai) in PBS, antibodies against O-GlcNAc (Abcam, Inc., ab2739) or CA19-9 (Abcam, Inc., ab3982) at a dilution of 1/200 in 5% BSA were used to detect their expression at 4 °C overnight. After washing, the samples were stained with AlexaFluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody (Jackson ImmunoResearch, Inc.) or AlexaFluor® 594 goat anti-mouse secondary antibody (Jackson ImmunoResearch, Inc.) at a 1/200 dilution for 1 h at room temperature. DAPI (Southern Biotech, Inc.) was used as the nuclear counterstain. Fluorescent images were acquired using a Leica confocal laser scanning microscope (Leica, Inc.). Confocal imaging was performed in seven random fields. Mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) was calculated using Image-Pro plus software (version 6.0, Media Cybernetics, Inc.).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The amount of O‐GlcNAcylated proteins was analysed by immunoblot and immunostaining. To this purpose, cells were incubated with dichloroacetate for 3 days, harvested in 2× Laemmli buffer, and proteins were separated by an 8% SDS‐PAGE. After semi‐dry transfer, the membrane was incubated with 1:1,000 mouse anti‐O‐GlcNAc antibody (Abcam Cat# ab2739, RRID:AB_303264, Cambridge, UK) in PBS followed by 1:1,000 goat anti‐mouse AlexaFluor488 (A‐11029; ThermoFischer) staining. Quantified protein content was normalized to tubulin concentration. The same antibody was used for immunostaining: The cells were grown on glass slides and fixed with 4% formalin. Next, the cells were permeabilized and blocked by 10% FBS, 0.3‐M glycerine, 1% BSA, and 0.1% Triton X‐100 in PBS. The cells were then incubated with the O‐GlcNAc antibody and Hoechst. O‐GlcNAc staining was analysed by Fiji and normalized to nuclei count. The O‐GlcNAc transferase inhibitor alloxan (10 mM, Sigma) was used as negative control (Konrad et al., 2002).

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.
