MT646 and MT302 Tandem IP with anti-ORF1 and S9.6 beads

Date: 10/14/21

Cell lines: MT646 High (08/26/21) and MT302 Dox 24-hour induction (8/26/21)

Extraction: 20mM HEPES, pH7.4, 1% Tritonx-100, 500mM NaCl

Scale of Tandem IP: 50mg with 5ul anti-ORF1 Epoxy beads (1st IP) and 1ul of S9.6 or mouse IgG Epoxy beads (2nd IP)

Weigh out 150mg MT646 and MT302 powder, add 600ul of extraction buffer (with protease inhibitors)

Sonicate @ 2Amp, 4x 2sec

Spin @ 20k rcf, 4°C for 10’ (Eppendorf Centrifuge 5417R)

Collect the supernatant

Set up 150mg anti-ORF1 IP with 15ul of anti-ORF1 beads

Wash 3x 1ml extraction buffer

Transfer beads to fresh tubes after 2nd wash

Elute with 10ul of 1mM ORF1 di-peptide @ RT for 15’ with shaking

Collect eluate (10ul each)

Wash beads with 5ul of extraction buffer

Collect the wash and combine it with eluate (15ul total)

Save 5ul for Western (anti-ORF1 elution, “Input”)

Dilute the ORF1 dipetide elution 1:5 with 20mM HEPES, pH7.4, 1% Tritonx-100, 125mM NaCl (+ protease inhibitors) and do the S9.6 IP (final 200mM NaCl)

10ul elution + 40ul of 20mM HEPES, pH7.4, 1% Tritonx-100, 125mM NaCl (final 200mM NaCl)

Split the diluted elution into 2x 25ul aliquots

Add 1ul of S9.6 or mouse IgG beads (Epoxy beads) to each tube; set up the following IPs (50mg IP with 1ul of epoxy beads)

1) MT646_S9.6

2) MT646_mIgG

3) MT302_S9.6

4) MT302_mIgG

IP @ RT for 15’

Save the flow-through (25ul) for Western (“FT”); Put the FT in speed vac to reduce the volume from 25ul to ~10ul

Wash beads with 3x 200ul IP buffer (200mM NaCl)

Elute beads with 10ul 2% SDS/ @ 70°C for 5’

Collect the eluate (“E”)

Check Input, FT and E by Western against anti-ORF1 and anti-ORF2 antibodies (Load 50% for anti-ORF1, and anti-ORF2 Western; Save the other 50% for S9.6 Western)

Western against anti-ORF2 and anti-ORF1 antibodies

Run Input, FT and E (25mg each) on 4-12% Bis-Tris gel

Wet transfer 70V for 1.5h

Blocking: TBST/5% milk, RT 2hr

Cut the membrane between 75 and 50KD, use the top half for anti-ORF2 Western and bottom half for anti-ORF1 Western

Upper panel: Anti-FLAG Western

Primary Ab: mouse anti-FLAG antibody (Sigma F3165, 4mg/ml), 1:2000, 4C, overnight

Secondary Ab: ECL anti-rmouse HRP 1:10,000, RT, 1hr

Lower panel: Anti-ORF1 Western (Abmart, 2mg/ml)

Primary Ab: Mouse anti-ORF1 antibody, 1:5,000, 4°C overnight

Secondary Ab: ECL anti-mouse HRP 1:10,000, RT 1hr

10 second exposure, high sensitivity, auto tone

Note: I did not wash S9.6 and mIgG beads before

Spot and crosslink the other 50% of Input, FT and Elution on Nylon membrane and probe with S9.6 antibody

Primary Ab: mouse S9.6 antibody, 1:1000 (1ug/ml), 4°C overnight (Freshly diluted) Secondary Ab: HRP linked anti-mouse IgG, 1:10,000, RT for 1hr

10 minutes exposure, super sensitivity, auto tone (light image of the membrane shown on the right hand side)

1. There is some kind of contamination in the grid MT646 #2 (as shown in the picture of the membrane.) The black dot in that spot is not real.

2. Nylon membrane was cut below the 3rd row (MT302). The top panel was probed with fresh S9.6 antibody and the bottom panel was probed with old S9.6 antibody.
