Abstract

 

The genetics of Drosophila is a powerful tool in the analysis of mutants and mutant proteins. Cultures of cells derived from wild?type or mutant flies can be pulse labeled to biosynthetically label the proteins made by the cells. Immunoprecipitation (and subcellular fractionation) are used to characterize the expression of specific proteins.

Materials

Basic Protocol 1: Labeling and Immunoprecipitation of Proteins from Drosophila S2M3 Cells

  Materials
  • Wild‐type Drosophila S2M3 cells (ATCC CRL 1963) growing in culture in M3 medium (see protocol 2 )
  • M3 growth medium (see recipe )
  • M3 labeling medium (see recipe )
  • [35 S]L‐Methionine (>800 Ci/mmol) or 35 S‐labeled E. coli protein hydrolysate (e.g., TRAN35 S‐LABEL, EXPRE35 S35 S; ICN Biomedicals; >1000 Ci/mmol)
  • Activated charcoal
  • PBS ( appendix 2A ), ice‐cold
  • Cell lysis buffer (see recipe )
  • 1:1 (v/v) protein A–Sepharose bead slurry in PBS (store up to 24 hr at 4°C)
  • Specific antibody against protein of interest
  • IP wash buffer: 0.1% (v/v) Triton X‐100 in PBS ( appendix 2A ) 1× SDS sample buffer ( appendix 2A )
  • 35‐mm tissue culture dishes
  • Large sealed container (e.g., Tupperware)
  • Cell scrapers
  • End‐over‐end rotator
  • Additional reagents and equipment for culturing Drosophila cells (see protocol 2 )
CAUTION: When working with radioactive materials, take appropriate precautions to avoid contamination of the experimenter and the surroundings. Carry out the experiment and dispose of wastes in an appropriately designated area, following guidelines provided by the local radiation safety officer (also see unit 7.1 and appendix 1D ).

Support Protocol 1: Growth and Maintenance of Cultured Drosophila S2M3 Cells

  Materials
  • Drosophila S2M3 cells (ATCC CRL 1963)
  • M3 growth medium (see recipe )
  • 25‐cm2 (T‐25) tissue culture flasks with plug‐seal caps
