The Y2H assays were performed using the Matchmaker Gold Yeast Two-Hybrid System (Clontech, Mountain View, CA, USA). The full-length and truncated coding regions of WL1 were amplified and cloned into the yeast expression vector pGADT7 (Clontech) and pGBKT7 (Clontech) to produce pGADT7-WL1, pGADT7-N-WL1, pGADT7-C-WL1, pGADT7-mWL1 and pGBKT7-WL1, pGBKT7-N-WL1, pGBKT7-C-WL1, pGBKT7-mWL1, respectively. The full-length coding regions of TAD1, OsTPR1, OsTPR2, and OsTPR3 were cloned into the vector pGBKT7 (Clontech) to produce pGBKT7-TAD1, pGBKT7-OsTPR1, pGBKT7-OsTPR2, and pGBKT7-OsTPR3. The Y2H Gold yeast strain was used in the Y2H assays. pGADT7-T1pGBKT7-lam and pGADT7-T1pGBKT7-53 served as the negative and positive controls, respectively. According to the manufacturer's instructions, these plasmids were co-transformed into the Y2H Gold yeast strain in an activation domain-BD coupled manner (Yeast Protocols Handbook, PT3024-1; Clontech).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Preparation of the cDNA library from mycelia of the strain QM9414 induced on Avicel was carried out as described previously by Cao Y etal.24 .
For constructing the bait vector for yeast two-hybrid screening, the Xyr1 coding sequences either for its putative activation domain (AD, aa 767~940) or the middle homology domains (MHR1, aa 314~772 and MHR2, aa 314~632) were amplified from T. reesei cDNA with primers containing NdeI and BamHI sites. The digested DNA fragments were ligated into pGBKT7 (Clontech) to obtain pGBKT7-Xyr1AD, pGBKT7-MHR1 and pGBKT7-MHR2, respectively.
The bait plasmid pGBKT7-Xyr1AD was transformed into the yeast Y2H Gold strain by a PEG-LiAC method to obtain the bait strain36 (link). Ten micrograms of T. reesei cDNA library plasmid was then transformed into the bait strain and transformants were selected on SC plates lacking tryptophan and leucine but containing 100 ng ml-1 AbA. Growing colonies were picked and the harbored plasmids with cDNA insert were verified by DNA sequencing after retransformation.

The inserts containing DNA sequences encoding human sKL (1–1,647 nt in CDS; GenBank: AB009667.2) and IGF1R (4,110 nt; GenBank: NM_010513.2) were cloned and then cloned into the vectors pGADT7 (Clontech; 630442) and pGBKT7 (Clontech; 631604) using homologous recombination, respectively (ClonExpress II One Step Cloning Kit; Vazyme, Nanjing, China) The yeast strain Y187 (Clontech; 630457) was transformed with pGADT7, and Y2HGold (Clontech; 630498) was transformed with pGBKT7; the fusion plasmids were transformed into yeast strains Y187 and Y2HGold, respectively, following a lithium acetate protocol.38 (link) Yeast cotransformed with pGBKT7-Lam and pGADT7-T was used as a negative control, and yeast cotransformed with pGBKT7-53 and pGADT7-T was used as a positive control. The transformants were grown on synthetically defined double dropout (DDO; SD/-Leu/-Trp) medium plates for 2–3 days. The yeast cells with cotransformation of the fusion plasmids were further dropped on QDO/X/A (SD/-Ade/-His/-Trp/-Leu/-Trp/X-α-gal/AbA) dropout medium plates with a series of 10-fold dilutions (from 106 to 104) for checking the interactions. Exclusion of recombinant plasmids was nontoxic to yeast strains and had no self-transcriptional activation activity. The primer pairs used for yeast two-hybrid experiments in this study are described in Table S2.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
With the identified information of full-length SjAUREO protein in our previous research [13 (link)], the SjAUREO was amplified from the S. japonica cDNA by using forward (CAAGAGGCCATTACGGCCATGTCGGAGCAGCAGAAGCTGG) and reverse (AACGGATCCCCGCAGCCCCTGTACGGCAACGAAAAAC) primers containing the Sfi I and BamH I restriction sites. The SjAUREO bait vector (pGBKT7-AUREO) was constructed using the appropriate restriction enzymes (TaKaRa Bio Inc., Otsu, Japan), in order to clone the SjAUREO gene into pGBKT7 (Clontech Laboratories, Dalian, China). The pGBKT7-AUREO was sequenced prior to transformation to ensure that the bait protein (SjAUREO) encodes the correct reading frame of the GAL4 DNA binding domain. The fused construct pGBKT7-AUREO was subsequently transformed into the Y2HGold yeast strain according to the user manual of the Yeast-maker™ Yeast Transformation System 2 (Clontech Laboratories, Dalian, China). The toxicity and auto-activation of bait protein were examined according to the user manual of the Matchmaker™ Gold Yeast Two-Hybrid System (Clontech Laboratories, Dalian, China).

Constructing VP37 Bait Protein

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Previous studies have indicated that the full-length VP37 protein could autonomously activate reporter genes in the absence of the prey protein; therefore, a truncated C-terminal VP37 (aa 1–247) was constructed in the present work. The truncated C-terminal VP37 was amplified from the WSSV genome by using forward and reverse primers containing the NdeI and PstI restriction sites: VP37Y-F (5′- TTCGGCATATGGCGGTAAACTTGGAT-3′) and VP37Y-R (5′-TCACTGCAGTCTGTTGTTTTCAGCGACAC-3′). The VP37 bait vector (pGBKT7-37) was constructed using the appropriate restriction enzyme (TaKaRa Bio Inc., Otsu, Japan), in order to clone the VP37 genes into pGBKT7 (Clontech Laboratories). The pGBKT7-37 was sequenced prior to transformation to ensure that the bait protein (VP37) encodes in the correct reading frame of the GAL4 DNA binding domain; pGBKT7-37 was subsequently transformed into the Y2HGold yeast strain (Clontech Laboratories) according to the user manual of the Yeastmaker Yeast Transformation System 2 (Clontech Laboratories). The toxicity and auto-activation of bait protein were examined according to user manual of the Matchmaker Gold Yeast Two-Hybrid System (Clontech Laboratories).

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.
