A simple pressure-assisted method for MicroED specimen preparation.

Project description:Micro-crystal electron diffraction (MicroED) has shown great potential for structure determination of macromolecular crystals too small for X-ray diffraction. However, specimen preparation remains a major bottleneck. Here, we report a simple method for preparing MicroED specimens, named Preassis, in which excess liquid is removed through an EM grid with the assistance of pressure. We show the ice thicknesses can be controlled by tuning the pressure in combination with EM grids with appropriate carbon hole sizes. Importantly, Preassis can handle a wide range of protein crystals grown in various buffer conditions including those with high viscosity, as well as samples with low crystal concentrations. Preassis is a simple and universal method for MicroED specimen preparation, and will significantly broaden the applications of MicroED.

Simple and Rapid Method for Wogonin Preparation and Its Biotransformation.

Project description:Wogonin is one of the most active flavonoids from Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi (baikal skullcap), widely used in traditional Chinese medicine. It exhibits a broad spectrum of health-promoting and therapeutic activities. Together with baicalein, it is considered to be the one of main active ingredients of Chinese medicines for the management of COVID-19. However, therapeutic use of wogonin may be limited due to low market availability connected with its low content in baikal skullcap and lack of efficient preparative methods for obtaining this compound. Although the amount of wogonin in skullcap root often does not exceed 0.5%, this material is rich in wogonin glucuronide, which may be used as a substrate for wogonin production. In the present study, a rapid, simple, cheap and effective method of wogonin and baicalein preparation, which provides gram quantities of both flavonoids, is proposed. The obtained wogonin was used as a substrate for biotransformation. Thirty-six microorganisms were tested in screening studies. The most efficient were used in enlarged scale transformations to determine metabolism of this xenobiotic. The major phase I metabolism product was 4'-hydroxywogonin-a rare flavonoid which exhibits anticancer activity-whereas phase II metabolism products were glucosides of wogonin. The present studies complement and extend the knowledge on the effect of substitution of A- and B-ring on the regioselective glycosylation of flavonoids catalyzed by microorganisms.

A simple RNA preparation method for SARS-CoV-2 detection by RT-qPCR

Project description:The technique RT-qPCR for viral RNA detection is the current worldwide strategy used for early detection of the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. RNA extraction is a key pre-analytical step in RT-qPCR, often achieved using commercial kits. However, the magnitude of the COVID-19 pandemic is causing disruptions to the global supply chains used by many diagnostic laboratories to procure the commercial kits required for RNA extraction. Shortage in these essential reagents is even more acute in developing countries with no means to produce kits locally. We sought to find an alternative procedure to replace commercial kits using common reagents found in molecular biology laboratories. Here we report a method for RNA extraction that takes about 40 min to complete ten samples, and is not more laborious than current commercial RNA extraction kits. We demonstrate that this method can be used to process nasopharyngeal swab samples and yields RT-qPCR results comparable to those obtained with commercial kits. Most importantly, this procedure can be easily implemented in any molecular diagnostic laboratory. Frequent testing is crucial for individual patient management as well as for public health decision making in this pandemic. Implementation of this method could maintain crucial testing going despite commercial kit shortages.

SCASP: A Simple and Robust SDS-Aided Sample Preparation Method for Proteomic Research.

Project description:SDS is widely used in sample preparation for proteomic research. However, SDS is incompatible with LC and electrospray ionization. SDS depletion is therefore required ahead of LC-MS analysis. Most of current SDS removal strategies are time consuming, laborious, and have low reproducibility. Here, we describe a method, SDS-cyclodextrin (CD)-assisted sample preparation, by which CD can bind to SDS and form CD-SDS complexes in solutions, allowing for direct tryptic digestion. We demonstrate that SDS-CD-assisted sample preparation is a simple, fast, and robust SDS-based sample preparation method for proteomics application.

Dts-seq: a simple method of library preparation for a highly reproducible characterization of the tRNA epitranscriptome by deep sequencing

Project description:High-throughput sequencing of cellular tRNAs is severely hindered by the presence of base modifications. These modifications impair the reverse transcription (RT) enzyme and prevent a large fraction of transcripts to be converted into cDNA in conventional sequence library preparation. Recent attempts to circumvent this issue made use of enzymatic treatments to remove methyl groups (Cozen et al. 2015; Zeng et al. 2015). This approach is, however, not fully satisfactory because it can clear the way to the RT enzyme for only a fraction of all tRNAs. Another approach takes advantage of the interference of modifications with RT enzymes to detect and identify them in fragmented RNA transcripts (Hauenschild et al. 2015; Helm and Motorin 2017; Schwartz and Motorin 2017). In line with this second approach, we present results of an alternate method that is simpler and fully adapted to the direct characterization and quantification of mature tRNA transcripts. An analysis of the obtained read coverages enables to generate highly reproductible patterns of termination signals that can be used to assess the modification state of all tRNAs.

Simple sodium dodecyl sulfate-assisted sample preparation method for LC-MS-based proteomics applications.

Project description:Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) is one of the most popular laboratory reagents used for biological sample extraction; however, the presence of this reagent in samples challenges LC-MS-based proteomics analyses because it can interfere with reversed-phase LC separations and electrospray ionization. This study reports a simple SDS-assisted proteomics sample preparation method facilitated by a novel peptide-level SDS removal step. In an initial demonstration, SDS was effectively (>99.9%) removed from peptide samples through ion substitution-mediated DS(-) precipitation using potassium chloride (KCl), and excellent peptide recovery (>95%) was observed for <20 ?g of peptides. Further experiments demonstrated the compatibility of this protocol with LC-MS/MS analyses. The resulting proteome coverage obtained for both mammalian tissues and bacterial samples was comparable to or better than that obtained for the same sample types prepared using standard proteomics preparation methods and analyzed using LC-MS/MS. These results suggest the SDS-assisted protocol is a practical, simple, and broadly applicable proteomics sample processing method, which can be particularly useful when dealing with samples difficult to solubilize by other methods.

A simple method for in vitro preparation of natural killer cells from cord blood.

Project description:BackgroundCord Blood (CB) has been considered a promising source of natural killer (NK) cells for cellular immunotherapy. However, it is difficult to expand the large numbers of highly pure NK cells from CB without cell sorting and feeder cells/multiple cytokines. In this study, we try to develop a simple, safe and economical method for ex vivo expansion and purification of NK cells from CB without cell sorting and feeder cells/multiple cytokines.ResultsThe large numbers (mean: 1.59 × 1010) of highly pure (≥90%) NK cells from CB could be obtained through interleukin-2, group A streptococcus and zoledronate stimulation of mononuclear cells using the 21-day culture approach. When compared to resting NK cells, expanded NK cells were a higher expression of activating receptors CD16, NKG2D, NKp30, NKp44, NKp46 and activating markers CD62L and CD69, while the inhibitory receptors, CD158a and CD158b remained largely unchanged. In addition, these cells showed a higher concentration of IFN-γ, TNF-α and GM-CSF secretion and cytotoxicity to K562 cells and acute myeloid leukemia targets than resting NK cells.ConclusionWe develop a simple, safe and economical method to obtain high yield, purity, and functionality NK cells from CB without cell sorting and feeder cells/multiple cytokines.
