Clickchemistrytools-HPG/AHA Protein Synthesis Assay Protocol

hpg/aha protein synthesis assay protocol fluorescent microscopyintroductionl-homopropargylglycine (hpg) and l-azidohomoalanine (aha) are non-radioactive alternatives to the traditional 35s-methionine which is incorporated into proteins during active protein synthesis and can be directly added to cells. commercial hpg- and aha-based kits used for detection of de novo synthesized proteins provide great results, but are often quite expensive and provide fixed amounts of reagents, which limits optimized or off-protocol use of these kits. self-assembled kits are a viable alternative to commercially available kits, in particular when all of the components are widely available from a number of suppliers. the amounts of reagents and the click reaction conditions are very similar between many commercial kits, and are in line with large number of published procedures for hpg- and aha-based detection of newly synthesized proteins. using the provided protocols, a researcher will be able to assemble an hpg or aha protein synthesis assay that would require very little, if any, fine tuning.these kits with improved biocompatibility and detection limits were first commercialized by thermo fisher scientific and sold under click-it®hpg and click-it®aha. click chemistry tools kits take advantage of next generation, copper chelating azides. the introduction of a copper-chelating moiety at the azide reporter molecule allows for a dramatic increase of the effective cu(i) concentration at the reaction site, enhancing the weakest link in the reaction rate acceleration, greatly increasing the sensitivity and biocompatibility of hpg- and aha-based assays for analyzing protein synthesis in cells.

hoechst 33342 (optional)
material preparationhpg/aha stock solution prepare 50 mm solution of hpg or aha in dmso or water, for example to make 1 ml of 50 mm stock solution dissolve 8 mg of hpg or 9 mg of aha in 1 ml of dmso or water
azdye picolyl azide stock solution prepare 1 mm solution in dmso or water. example: to make 150 µl, dissolve the entire azdye picolyl azide kit pack in 150 µl of dmso or water
copper catalyst (25 mm cuso4, 62.5 mm thpta) solution weight out 312 mg of copper (ii) sulfate pentahydrate and 1.35 g of thpta, add 50 ml of water, vortex to dissolve completely
reaction buffer 50 mm tris, 150 mm nacl, ph 7.5. dissolve 3.02 g of tris, 4.4 g of nacl in 500 ml of water, adjust ph to 7.5, sterile filter
hoechst 33342 10 mg/ml stock solution. dissolve 1 mg of hoechst 33342 in 100 µl of deionized water
reducing agent dissolve 20 mg of sodium ascorbate in 1.8 ml of deionized water. vortex until completely dissolved. sodium ascorbate solution is susceptible to oxidation. we recommend always using freshly prepared solution of sodium ascorbate
wash buffer 0.5 mm edta, 2 mm nan3in pbs. add 1 ml of 0.5 m edta and 0.13 g of dry sodium azide to 1 l of pbs. sterile filter for long term storage
1. cell labeling with hpg/ahathis protocol is based on a large number of publications of hpg- and aha-based procedures for analyzing peptide synthesis in cells used with different types of cells. an optimized hpg/aha concentration is 50 μm but may need adjustment depending on the given cell type. growth medium, cell density, cell type variations, and other factors may influence labeling. investigators are encouraged to determine the optimal concentration of the hpg reagent as well as labeling time individually for each cell type on a small-scale first.
plate the cells on coverslips at the desired density and allow them to recover overnight before additional treatment
prepare 50 mm solution of hpg or aha in dmso or water
wash cells once with pbs, add methionine-free medium and incubate the cells at 37°c for 30–60 minutes to deplete methionine reserves
add desired amount of hpg or aha to cells in l-methionine-free culture medium to achieve optimal working hpg/aha concentration (50 μm, if not optimized)
during addition of hpg or aha to cells in culture, avoid disturbing the cells in ways that may disrupt the normal cell cycling patterns
incubate the cells for the desired length of time under conditions optimal for the cell type. different cell types may require different incubation periods for optimal labeling with hpg or aha. as a starting point we recommend 50 μm hpg or aha for 1 hour
proceed immediately tocell fixation and permeabilization
2. cell fixation and permeabilizationthe following protocol is provided for the fixation step using 3.7% formaldehyde in pbs followed by a 0.5% triton®x-100 permeabilization step. protocols using other fixation/permeabilization reagents, such as methanol and saponin, can also be used.
transfer each coverslip into a single well. for convenient processing, use 6-well plates
after metabolic labeling, remove the media and add 1 ml of 3.7% formaldehyde in pbs to each well containing the coverslips. incubate for 15 minutes at room temperature
remove the fixative and wash the cells in each well twice with 1 ml of 3% bsa in pbs
remove the wash solution. add 1 ml of 0.5% triton®x-100 in pbs to each well, then incubate at room temperature for 20 minutes
3. hpg/aha detectionnote: 500 μl of the reaction cocktail is used per coverslip. a smaller volume can be used as long as the remaining reaction components are maintained at the same ratios.
prepare the required amount of the reaction cocktail according to table 1.add the ingredients in the order listed in the table. use the reaction cocktail within 15 minutes of preparation.
