UC Davis - Glutathione Reductase Resource Report Resource Website |
Peter Havel | 10.17504/protocols.io.68ehhte | Mouse Metabolic Phenotyping Centers | Summary: Glutathione reductase (GR, EC 1.6.4.2) is a flavoprotein that catalyzes the NADPH- dependent reduction of oxidized glutathione (GSSG) to glutathione (GSH). This enzyme is essential for the GSH redox cycle which maintains adequate levels of reduced cellular GSH. A high GSH/GSSG ratio is essential for protection against oxidative stress. The Cayman Chemical Glutathione Reductase Assay Kit measures GR activity by measuring the rate of NADPH oxidation. The oxidation of NADPH to NADP+ is accompanied by a decrease in absorbance at 340 nm. Since GR is present at rate limiting concentrations, the rate of decrease in the A340 is directly proportional to the GR activity in the sample. The Cayman GR Assay Kit is provided in a convenient 96 well plate format and can be used to measure GR activity inplasma, erythrocyte lysates, tissue homogenates, and cell lysates. | University of California, Davis | https://mmpc.org/shared/document.aspx?id=127&docType=Protocol | 2 | 2019 | Peter Havel 2019.

U Michigan - Illumina 16S rRNA gene sequencing using DNA Resource Report Resource Website |
Vincent Young | 10.17504/protocols.io.7bzhip6 | Mouse Metabolic Phenotyping Centers | Summary: This protocol is for the submission of DNA to generate libraries for 16S rRNA sequencing, which can be used for bacterial community analysis and detect variations in the microbiota under differing conditions.DNA is aliquoted into 96 well plates, which are properly packaged and shipped to the MMPC and libraries are prepared for community analysis as previously described by Seekatz et al. (1). Briefly, barcoded dual-index primers specific to the V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene amplify the DNA (2). PCR reactions are composed of 5 μL of 4 μM equimolar primer set, 0.15 μL of AccuPrime Taq DNA High Fidelity Polymerase, 2 μL of 10x AccuPrime PCR Buffer II (Thermo Fisher Scientific, catalog no. 12346094), 11.85 μL of PCR-grade water, and 1 μL of DNA template. The PCR conditions used consisted of 2 min at 95°C, followed by 30 cycles of 95°C for 20 s, 55°C for 15 s, and 72°C for 5 min, followed by 72°C for 10 min. Each PCR reaction is normalized using the SequalPrep Normalization Plate Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, catalog no. A1051001). The normalized reactions are pooled and quantified using the Kapa Biosystems Library qPCR MasterMix (ROX Low) Quantification kit for Illumina platforms (catalog no. KK4873). The Agilent Bioanalyzer is used to confirm the size of the amplicon library (~399 bp) using a high-sensitive DNA analysis kit (catalog no. 5067-4626). Pooled amplicon library is then sequenced on the Illumina MiSeq platform using the 500 cycle MiSeq V2 Reagent kit (catalog no. MS-102-2003) according to the manufacturer's instructions with modifications of the primer set with custom read 1/read 2 and index primers added to the reagent cartridge. The“Preparing Libraries for Sequencing on the MiSeq” (part 15039740, Rev. D) protocol was used to prepare libraries with a final load concentration of 5.5 pM, spiked with 15% PhiX to create diversity within the run. FASTQ files are distributed to the client when the 2 x 250 bp sequencing completes.References:1. Seekatz AM, Theriot CM, Molloy CT, Wozniak KL, Bergin IL, Young VB. 2015.
