Abstract
This protocol details inoculation lysate preparation.
Soluble/Insoluble lysate preparation from harvested brainstem/spinal cord tissue
Soluble/Insoluble lysate preparation from harvested brainstem/spinal cord tissue
Acquire the tissue from 4-month-old asymptomatic TgA53T (Line G2-3) and end-stage tissue harvest and store at -80 °C prior to use.
Weigh the tissue and suspend it in 0.9% sterile saline (1:10 w/vol).
Homogenize and centrifuge for 00:05:00 at 3000 x g at 4 °C. The supernatant (S3000) is obtained.
5m
Centrifuge S3000 for 00:45:00 at 150000 x g at 4 °C. The supernatant (S150) – Highly soluble fraction is obtained.
45m
Wash pellet and resuspend in sterile saline (half of original volume) by sonication (3 x 10 min pulses). Resuspended pellet (P150) – Insoluble fraction is obtained.
Wash pellet and resuspend in sterile saline (half of original volume) by sonication for 00:00:10 pulses) (1/3).
10s
Wash pellet and resuspend in sterile saline (half of original volume) by sonication for 00:00:10 pulses) (2/3).
10s
Wash pellet and resuspend in sterile saline (half of original volume) by sonication for 00:00:10 pulses) (3/3).
10s
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)-enriched fractionation
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)-enriched fractionation
Homogenize freshly harvested tissues (1:10 w/vol) in lysis buffer (refer material section).
Centrifuge at 1000 x g and collect the supernatant.
Centrifuge at 10000 x g. The pellet containing mitochondria is obtained.
Centrifuge supernatant at 100000 x g. The supernatant containing cytosol and pellet containing ER are obtained.
