An improved protocol for amino acid type-selective isotope labeling in insect cells
An improved protocol for amino acid type-selective isotope labeling in insect cells
Abstract
An improved expression protocol is proposed for amino acid type-specific , -isotope labeling of proteins in baculovirus-infected (BV) insect cell cultures. This new protocol modifies the methods published by Gossert et al. (J Biomol NMR 51(4):449â??456, 2011) and provides efficient incorporation of isotopically labeled amino acids, with similar yields per L versus unlabeled expression in rich media. Gossert et al. identified the presence of unlabeled amino...

An economic approach to efficient isotope labeling in insect cells using homemade 15 N-, 13 C- and 2 H-labeled yeast extracts
An economic approach to efficient isotope labeling in insect cells using homemade 15 N-, 13 C- and 2 H-labeled yeast extracts
Abstract
Heterologous expression of proteins in insect cells is frequently used for crystallographic structural studies due to the high yields even for challenging proteins requiring the eukaryotic protein processing capabilities of the host. However for NMR studies, the need for isotope labeling poses extreme challenges in eukaryotic hosts. Here, we describe a robust method to achieve uniform protein 15N and 13C labeling of up...

Affordable uniform isotope labeling with 2 H, 13 C and 15 N in insect cells
Affordable uniform isotope labeling with 2 H, 13 C and 15 N in insect cells
Abstract
For a wide range of proteins of high interest, the major obstacle for NMR studies is the lack of an affordable eukaryotic expression system for isotope labeling. Here, a simple and affordable protocol is presented to produce uniform labeled proteins in the most prevalent eukaryotic expression system for structural biology, namely Spodoptera frugiperda insect cells. Incorporation levels of 80Â*% can be achieved for 15N and 13C with yields comparable to expression in...

A simple protocol for amino acid type selective isotope labeling in insect cells with improved yields and high reproducibility
Abstract An easy to use and robust approach for amino acid type selective isotope labeling in insect cells is presented. It relies on inexpensive commercial media and can be implemented in laboratories without sophisticated infrastructure. In contrast to previous protocols, where either high protein amounts or high incorporation ratios were obtained, here we achieve both at the same time. By supplementing media with a well considered amount of yeast extract,...
