When purifying a membrane protein, finding a detergent for solubilization is one of the first steps to master. Ideally, only little time is invested to identify the best-suited detergent, which on the one hand would solubilize large amounts of the target protein but on the other hand would sustain the protein's activity. Here we describe the solubilization screen and subsequent activity assay we have optimized for the bacterial P-type ATPase KdpFABC. In just 2 days, more than 70 detergents were tested for their solubilization potential. Afterwards, a smaller selection of the successful detergents was assayed for their ability to retain the activity of the membrane protein complex.The comparison of isolated plant cell membranous enclosures can be hampered if their extraction method differs, e.g., in regard to the utilized buffers, the tissue, or the developmental stage of the plant. Thus, for comparable results, different cellular compartments should be isolated synchronously in one procedure. Here, we devise a workflow to isolate different organelles from one tissue, which is applicable to different eudicots such as Medicago x varia and Solanum lycopersicum. We describe this method for the isolation of different organelles from one plant tissue for the example of Arabidopsis thaliana. All compartments are retrieved by utilizing differential centrifugation with organelle-specific parameters.Integral membrane proteins have a critical role in fundamental biological processes; they are major drug targets and therefore of high research interest. Recombinant protein production is the first step in the protein tool generation for biochemical and biophysical studies. Here, we provide simplified protocols that facilitate the generation of high-quality virus and initial expression analysis for integral membrane protein targets utilizing the baculovirus-mediated expression system in insect cells. The protocol steps include generation of viruses, virus quality control, and initial expression trials utilizing standard commercial baculovirus vector systems and are exemplified for G protein-coupled receptor targets. The viral quality, quantity, and recombinant protein expression are evaluated by microscopy, flow cytometry, fluorimetry, and SDS-PAGE, using either covalently fused fluorescent proteins or co-expressed fluorescence markers. Moreover, integral membrane protein expression levels, approximate molecular mass, and stability can be evaluated from small-scale expression and purification trials.Saccharomyces cerevisiae is one of the most popular expression systems for eukaryotic membrane proteins. Here, we describe protocols for the expression and purification of mitochondrial membrane proteins developed in our laboratory during the last 15 years. To optimize their expression in a functional form, different promoter systems as well as codon-optimization and complementation strategies were established. Purification approaches were developed which remove the membrane protein from the affinity column by specific proteolytic cleavage rather than by elution. This strategy has several important advantages, most notably improving the purity of the sample, as contaminants stay bound to the column, thus eliminating the need for a secondary purification step, such as size exclusion chromatography. This strategy also avoids dilution of the sample, which would occur as a consequence of elution, precluding the need for concentration steps, and thus preventing detergent concentration.The expression and downstream purification of membrane proteins is the prerequisite for biophysical and structural studies of this major source of therapeutic targets. The gram-positive bacterium Lactococcus lactis is an attractive option for heterologous membrane protein expression and purification thanks to advantageous characteristics such as mild proteolytic activity and small genome size. Vectors designed for gene transcription under the control of inducible promoters are readily available. Specifically, the tightly regulated nisin-inducible gene expression system (NICE) allows to fine-tune the overexpression of different gene products. The expressed protein engineered with a suitable tag can be readily detected and purified from crude membrane extracts. The purpose of this protocol chapter is to detail the procedures of cloning, expression, isolation of the membrane vesicles, and affinity purification of a membrane protein of interest in L. lactis.Escherichia coli is the workhorse of the structural biology lab. In addition to routine cloning and molecular biology, E. coli can be used as a factory for the production of recombinant membrane proteins. Purification of homogeneous samples of membrane protein expressed in E. coli is a significant bottleneck for researchers, and the protocol we present here for the overexpression and purification of membrane proteins in E. coli will provide a solid basis to develop lab- and protein-specific protocols for your membrane protein of interest. We additionally provide extensive notes on the purification process, as well as the theory surrounding principles of purification.Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a useful eukaryotic expression system for mitochondrial membrane proteins due to its ease of growth and ability to provide a native membrane environment. The development of the pBEVY vector system has further increased the potential of S. cerevisiae as an expression system by creating a method for expressing multiple proteins simultaneously. This vector system is amenable to the expression and purification of multi-subunit protein complexes. Here we describe the cloning, yeast transformation, and co-expression of multi-subunit outer mitochondrial membrane complexes using the pBEVY vector system.OBJECTIVES Sexual identity has been recognized as a social determinant of health; however, evidence is limited on sexual minority status as a possible contributor to inequalities in cardiometabolic outcomes and the related hospital burden. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/apcin.html This study aimed to investigate the association between sexual identity and hospital costs for cardiometabolic diseases among a cohort of Canadians using linked survey and administrative data. METHODS Data from the 2007-2011 Canadian Community Health Survey were linked to acute-care inpatient records from the 2005/2006-2012/2013 Discharge Abstract Database. Multiple linear regression was used to assess the association between self-reported sexual identity and inpatient resource use for cardiometabolic diseases. RESULTS Among the population ages 18-59, 2.1% (95% CI 1.9-2.2) identified as lesbian, gay, or bisexual (LGB). LGB individuals more often reported having diabetes or heart disease compared with heterosexuals. The mean inflation-adjusted cost for cardiometabolic-related hospitalizations was found to be significantly higher among LGB patients (CAD$26,702; 95% CI 26,166-60,365) than among their heterosexual counterparts ($10,137; 95% CI 8,639-11,635), in part a reflection of longer hospital stays (13.
