<h4>Background</h4>In eukaryotic organisms, gene expression is regulated at multiple levels during the processes of transcription and translation. The absence of a tight regulatory network for transcription in the human malaria parasite suggests that gene expression may largely be controlled at post-transcriptional and translational levels.<h4>Results</h4>In this study, we compare steady-state mRNA and polysome-associated mRNA levels of Plasmodium falciparum at different time points during its a ...[more]

Project description:Protein Complexes Purification- Stable S2 cell expressing Hzg albeit low level, lines expressing C-terminally 3XHA-Flag-tagged wild-type and phosphatase dead (PD) Hzg were generated. A parental cell line was used as a negative control. Nuclear and cytoplasmic extracts from the Hzg-WT, Hzg-mutant and Control cell lines were generated. The Hzg protein complex was immunopurified using anti-Flag antibodies. Three biological replicates were generated for each sample type. Bead bound proteins were identified using Multidimensional Protein Identification technology (MudPIT).
Multidimensional Protein Identification Technology- TCA-precipitated protein pellets were solubilized using Tris-HCl pH 8.5 and 8 M urea, followed by addition of TCEP (Tris(2-carboxyethyl) phosphine hydrochloride; Pierce) and CAM (chloroacetamide; Sigma) were added to a final concentration of 5 mM and 10 mM, respectively. Proteins were digested using Endoproteinase Lys-C at 1:100 w/w (Roche) at 37oC overnight. The samples were brought to a final concentration of 2 M urea and 2 mM CaCl2 and a second digestion was performed overnight at 37oC using trypsin (Roche) at 1:100 w/w. The reactions were stopped using formic acid (5% final). The digested size exclusion eluates were loaded on a split-triple-phase fused-silica micro-capillary column and placed in-line with a linear ion trap mass spectrometer (LTQ, Thermo Scientific), coupled with a Quaternary Agilent 1100 Series HPLC system. A fully automated 10-step chromatography run was carried out. Each full MS scan (400-1600 m/z) was followed by five data-dependent MS/MS scans. The number of the micro scans was set to 1 both for MS and MS/MS. The settings were as follows: repeat count 2; repeat duration 30 s; exclusion list size 500 and exclusion duration 120 s, while the minimum signal threshold was set to 100.
MS Data Processing- The MS/MS data set was searched using SEQUEST against a database consisting of 21,402 non-redundant Drosophila melanogaster proteins (downloaded from NCI RefSeq 2013-02-20), 1 phosphatase dead Hzg sequence, 177 usual contaminants, and, to estimate false discovery rates (FDRs), 21,579 randomized amino acid sequences derived from each NR protein entry. To account for alkylation by CAM, 57 Da were added statically to the cysteine residues. To account for the oxidation of methionine to methionine sulfoxide, 16 Da were added as a differential modification to the methionine residue. Peptide/spectrum matches were sorted and selected and compared using DTASelect/Contrast.

Project description:Protein Complexes Purification- Stable S2 cell lines expressing Ada2b (isoform B; NP_001027151.1) in the pRmHa3-CHA2FL2 (Ada2b-PBH2F2) were maintained at 1-2 e6 cells/mL in SFX medium (HyQ SFX-Insect). Cells stably transfected with empty vector served as negative controls. Protein complexes containing Ada2b-PB were purified from nuclear extracts (from 12 L of 1e7/L S2 Ada2b-PBH2F2 cells) via their FLAG epitope tag. Isolated complexes were further separated by size on a Superose 6 10/300 gel filtration column. Eluates from the FLAG-IP (input) and size exclusion chromatography (SEC) fractions were TCA-precipitated from proteomics analysis. Two biological replicates of SEC fractions 12 and 19 were analyzed.

Project description:Protein pull-down assay- Mixed erythrocytic stage 3D7 Plasmodium falciparum parasite cultures were collected and lysed using 0.15% saponin for 10 min on ice. After subsequent washes, the parasite pellet was resuspended in 2.5X volume of IP buffer (0.65% Igepal CA-360 (Sigma-Aldrich), 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 5 mM EDTA, 1% Triton-X, 1 mM AEBSF, 5 uM E-64 and EDTA-free protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche)) and lysed by passing through a 26G 1/2-inch needle ten times and sonicated 7 times 10 seconds on/30 seconds off using a probe sonicator. Extracted nuclear protein lysates were incubated for 10 mins at room temperature with DNase I to remove DNA and centrifuged for 10 mins at 14,500 rcf to remove cell debris. Washed Protein A magnetic beads (Pure Proteome) were added to the protein sample and incubated for 1 hour at 4oC to preclear the lysate. Precleared lysate was transferred to a new microcentrifuge tube and split equally for the antibody and no antibody control. The anti-CRWN-like custom antibody was added at a 1:50 ratio and incubated overnight at 4oC. The negative control with no antibody was also incubated overnight. Antibody-protein complexes were recovered using Protein A magnetic beads (Pure Proteome), followed by extensive washes with wash buffer A (1% Triton-X, 1 mM EDTA in 1X PBS), wash buffer B (wash buffer A, 0.5 M NaCl) and wash buffer C (1 mM EDTA, 1X PBS). Proteins were eluted using 0.1 M glycine, pH 2.8 and the eluent was neutralized using 2 M Tris-HCl, pH 8.0. Protein eluates were TCA-precipitated overnight, then washed twice with cold acetone.

Project description:The Plasmodium falciparum strain 3D7 was cultured in human O+ erythrocytes at 5% haematocrit as previously described (Trager and Jensen, 1976). Cultures were synchronized twice at ring stage with 5% D-sorbitol treatments performed eight hours apart (Lambros and Vanderberg, 1979). Cultures (8% parasitemia in 5% hematocrit in a total volume of 25 ml) were harvested 48 hours after the first sorbitol treatment (ring stage), and then 18 hours (trophozoite stage) and 36 hours thereafter (schizont stage).
Parasites from mixed trophozoite and schizont cultures were extracted by saponin lysis of erythrocytes and were crosslinked on ice by 254 nm UV light for a total of 1,200 J/cm2 with two 2-minute breaks with gentle mixing. Following UV-crosslinking, parasites were washed in PBS and lysed in a Lysis/Binding buffer containing 100 mM Tris-HCl, pH7.5, 500 mM LiCl, 1 mM EDTA, 0.5% LiDS, and 5 mM DTT. Negative control samples were lysed in Lysis/Binding buffer without EDTA, treated with 400 ug of RNase A (Life Technologies) and 10,000 units of RNase T1 (Ambion) for 30 min at 37C, followed by the addition of EDTA to a final concentration of 1 mM.
Samples were then allowed to bind to magnetic oligo(dT)25 beads (New England Biolabs) by incubating at room temperature for 1 hour with continuous mixing. The beads were washed twice in wash buffer I (20 mM Tris-HCl, pH7.5, 500 mM LiCl, 1 mM EDTA, 0.1% LiDS, and 5 mM DTT), twice in wash buffer II (20 mM Tris-HCl, pH7.5, 500 mM LiCl, and 1 mM EDTA) and once in low-salt buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl, pH7.5, 200 mM LiCl, and 1 mM EDTA). Proteins were eluted in elution buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl, pH7.5, 2 mM CaCl2, and 50 units of MNase) by incubation for 30 min at 37C, followed the addition of Laemmli buffer and a 10-min incubation at 98C.
Proteins were precipitated with 20% trichloroacetic acid (TCA). The resulting pellet was washed once with 10% TCA and twice with cold acetone. TCA-precipitated protein pellet (ca. 50 ug) was solubilized in Tris-HCl pH 8.5 and 8 M Urea. TCEP (Tris(2-Carboxylethyl)-Phosphine Hydrochloride, Pierce) and CAM (Chloroacetamide, Sigma) were added to a final concentration of 5 mM and 10 mM, respectively. The protein suspension was digested overnight at 37C using Endoproteinase Lys-C at 1:50 w/w (Roche). Sample was brought to a final concentration of 2 M urea and 2 mM CaCl2 before performing a second overnight digestion at 37C using Trypsin (Promega) at 1:100 w/w. Formic acid (5% final) was added to stop the reactions.
Sample was loaded on split-triple-phase fused-silica microcapillary column (McDonald et al., 2002) and placed in-line with linear ion trap mass spectrometer (LTQ, Thermo Scientific), coupled with quaternary Agilent 1260 series HPLC. Fully automated 10-step chromatography run (for a total of 20 hours) was carried out, as described in (Florens and Washburn, 2006). Each full MS scan (400-1600 m/z) was followed by five data-dependent MS/MS scans. The number of the micro scans was set to 1 both for MS and MS/MS. The dynamic exclusion settings used were as follows: repeat count 2; repeat duration 30s; exclusion list size 500 and exclusion duration 120 sec, while the minimum signal threshold was set to 100.
The MS/MS dataset was searched using SEQUEST (Eng et al., 1994) against a database of 72,358 sequences, consisting of 5,487 P. falciparum non-redundant proteins (downloaded from PlasmoDB on 2012-07-12), 30,536 H. sapiens non-redundant proteins (downloaded from NCBI on 2012-08-27), 177 usual contaminants (such as human keratins, IgGs, and proteolytic enzymes), and, to estimate false discovery rates, 36,179 randomized amino acid sequences derived from each non-redundant protein entry. To account for alkylation by CAM, 57 Da were added statically to cysteine residues. To account for the oxidation of methionine residues to methionine sulfoxide, 16Da were added as a differential modification to methionine residue. Peptide/spectrum matches were sorted, selected using DTASelect/CONTRAST (Tabb et al., 2002). Proteins had to be detected by 1 peptide with 2 independent spectra, leading to average FDRs at the protein and spectral levels of 0.45% (range, 0-1.13%) and 0.12% (range, 0-0.33%), respectively for the RNA interactome capture experiments. To estimate relative protein levels and to account for peptides shared between proteins, Normalized Spectral Abundance Factors (dNSAFs) were calculated for each detected protein, as described in (Zhang et al., 2010).

Project description:Protein Complexes Purification: We generated 293FRT cell lines that stably express FLAG-tagged ICE1 (Interactor of Little Elongation Complex ELL subunit 1; KIAA0947). We extracted nuclear proteins in the presence of Benzonase to digest nucleic acids, including both DNA and RNA, and purified the little elongation complex (LEC) through anti-FLAG affinity purification using anti-FLAG M2 agarose. Cells only expressing the FLAG epitope-tag were analyzed in parallel as negative controls.
A MED26 hypomorphic HEK293T cell line D2G8 was generated by applying multiple small guide RNAs (sgRNAs) complementary to the MED26 gene to induce random sequence insertions and/or deletions. This cell line expresses mutant MED26 lacking the NTD. Mediator was purified from cells expressing either WT MED26 or D2G8 MED26 via its ability to bind the transcriptional activation domain of ATF6-alpha. Proteins were precipitated with 1/5 TCA overnight at 4oC and washed 2x with cold acetone.

Project description:To isolate the different brain-derived Orb2 species, we used approximately 3 million 3 to 7- day-old adult Drosophila melanogaster Canton-S flies. First, flies were collected in 50 ml tubes and snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen. The heads were separated from the body by vortexing for 5-10 sec, and immediately snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen. The vortex and freezing cycles were repeated 3 times. The heads were collected in 50 ml tubes and stored at -80 C until their processing. Every 50 ml of fly heads was homogenized in 100 ml of lysis buffer (PBS, pH7.21, 5 percent glycerol, 0.1 Triton X-100, 1 percent NP40, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM magnesium acetate, 1 mM dithiothreitol DTT, 1 mM PMSF and EDTA-free protease inhibitor (Roche)) with a Polytron Homogenizer and the homogenized tissue was rotated for 45 min at 4C. The homogenate was transferred to JA-25.50 tubes and centrifuged at 75,000g at 4C for 30 min. The obtained supernatant was stored for further processing while the obtained pellet was dissolved in additional 50 ml of lysis buffer and processed again with the Polytron Homogenizer following the same protocol. This procedure was repeated 3 times to ensure the maximum Orb2 protein recovery. The total volume of homogenate was then filtered through a Miracloth (Millipore) membrane to remove lipids, sonicated ten times for ten seconds and passed through a 0.45 micrometer filter. Using Ni-affinity, to exploit the presence of four consecutive histidines at the N-terminal region of Orb2, and other chromatography techniques, we purified from total head extracts. Approximately 10 micrograms of total protein, in liquid form, was precipitated for ID mass spectrometry analysis using a 4:1 volume MeOH/CHCl3 extraction procedure using Multidimensional Protein Identification technology (MudPIT).
Multidimensional Protein Identification Technology- MeOH/CHCl3 -precipitated protein pellets were solubilized using Tris-HCl pH 8.5 and 8 M urea, followed by addition of TCEP (Tris(2-carboxyethyl) phosphine hydrochloride; Pierce) and CAM (chloroacetamide; Sigma) were added to a final concentration of 5 mM and 10 mM, respectively. Proteins were digested using Endoproteinase Lys-C at 1:100 w/w (Roche) at 37oC overnight. The samples were brought to a final concentration of 2 M urea and 2 mM CaCl2 and a second digestion was performed overnight at 37oC using trypsin (Roche) at 1:100 w/w. The reactions were stopped using formic acid (5% final). The digested size exclusion eluates were loaded on a split-triple-phase fused-silica micro-capillary column and placed in-line with a linear ion trap mass spectrometer (LTQ, Thermo Scientific), coupled with a Quaternary Agilent 1100 Series HPLC system. A fully automated 10-step chromatography run was carried out. Each full MS scan (400-1600 m/z) was followed by five data-dependent MS/MS scans. The number of the micro scans was set to 1 both for MS and MS/MS. The settings were as follows: repeat count 2; repeat duration 30 s; exclusion list size 500 and exclusion duration 120 s, while the minimum signal threshold was set to 100.
MS Data Processing- The MS/MS data set was searched using ProLuCID against a database consisting of 21,402 non-redundant Drosophila melanogaster proteins (downloaded from NCI RefSeq 2013-02-20), 177 usual contaminants, and, to estimate false discovery rates (FDRs), 21,579 randomized amino acid sequences derived from each NR protein entry. To account for alkylation by CAM, 57 Da were added statically to the cysteine residues. To account for the oxidation of methionine to methionine sulfoxide, 16 Da were added as a differential modification to the methionine residue. Peptide/spectrum matches were sorted and selected and compared using DTASelect/Contrast

Project description:Sample Preparation. Three biological replicates of wild type yeast cells (BY4741) were cultured with YEPD either at 21C or 35C overnight (ca. 18hrs) to OD600 around 2. Pre-warmed/chilled fresh YEPD was next used to dilute the cultures, which were grown for an additional 6hrs to OD600 around 1. 120mL of cell culture for each replicate were briefly centrifuged at 3,000 g to collect the cells. Cells were washed once with cold lysis buffer (50mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 1mM MgCl2, 1% Triton X100) and resuspended in 1mL lysis buffer. The cell suspensions were flash frozen in droplet format in liquid nitrogen and grinded for 3min at 30 Hz. After melting the samples, cell lysates were transferred to 2mL centrifuge tubes and mixed with an additional 800ul of lysis buffer that was used to rinse the grinding jar. Cell lysates were clarified by a 10min centrifugation at 16,000 g at 4C. The concentration of clarified lysate was determined with BCA assay and diluted to 2 mg/mL with buffer (20mM HEPES pH 7.5, NaCl 150mM, 10mM MgCl2).
Protein Digestion. 0.9mL of these diluted lysates were digested with proteinase K at 1:100 (w/w) ratio for 5 min at RT. Another 0.9 mL was saved as control without proteinase K digestion. The proteinase K-digested and control samples were immediately terminated by 7 M guanidine hydrochloride and boiled for 5 min. After cooling down to room temperature, samples were reduced with 5 mM TCEP (tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine) and alkylated with 10 mM chloroacetamide in dark for 30 min. Samples were diluted with 0.1 M NH4HCO3 to reduce the concentration of GdnHCl to 0.5 M and digested with trypsin (Promega, 18ug, which is 1:50 w/w) for 2hr at 32C with 1mM CaCl2. Additional trypsin (12ug, which is 1:75 w/w) was added to each sample to digest overnight. After overnight digestion, the samples were acidified with formic acid (5%) and were concentrated using Empore Solid Phase Extraction Cartridges prewashed with 1mL of methanol and 1mL of 0.1% Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA). The peptides were eluted with 80% acetonitrile containing 0.1% TFA after washing the cartridge with 1mL of 0.1% TFA.
MS Data Acquisition. All peptide samples were dried using a SpeedVac vacuum concentrator and resuspended in 150 ml 5% acetonitrile, 0.1% formic acid (Buffer A). Peptides were loaded on a split-triple-phase fused-silica micro-capillary column and placed in-line with an Agilent 1260 series quaternary HPLC pump and Velos Pro Orbitrap or Velos Orbitrap Elite mass spectrometers. A fully automated 12-step MudPIT chromatography run was carried out. Each full MS scan (400-1600 m/z) was followed by 15 data-dependent MS/MS scans. MS1 scans were acquired in Orbitrap at 60,000 resolution, while ddMS2 were acquired in the ion trap with Rapid Scan settings. The number of the micro scans was set to 1 for both MS and MS/MS. MS1 AGC target was set to 1.00E+06, MS2 AGC targets at 1.00E+04, and MS2 max injection times at 150 ms. MS1 charge states were between 2-5. MS2 collision energy was set at 35%. Dynamic exclusion settings were: 2 repeat counts; 30 s repeat duration; exclusion list size of 500; and 90 s exclusion duration.
MS Data Searching and Processing. Peak files were extracted using RawDistiller and searched using ProLuCID (v. 1.3.3) against a database consisting of 5,846 S. cerevisiae non-redundant proteins (downloaded from NCBI 11-01-2016), 193 usual contaminants (such as human keratins, IgGs, and proteolytic enzymes), and, to estimate false discovery rates (FDRs), 6039 randomized amino acid sequences derived from each non-redundant protein entry. All cysteines were considered as fully carboxamidomethylated (+57.0215 Da statically added), while methionine oxidation was searched as a differential modification. Mass tolerances of 7 ppm for precursor and 800 ppm for fragment ions were used. MS/MS datasets generated for trypsin-digested peptides were searched with KR peptide-end requirements, while no enzyme specificity was required for the MS/MS datasets generated for the proteinase K-digested peptides. DTASelect v1.9 and swallow, an in-house developed software, were used to filter ProLuCID search results at given FDRs at the spectrum, peptide, and protein levels. Here, all controlled FDRs were less than 1%.
