This video demonstrates a method to study the uptake and retrograde transport of functionalized nanobodies to understand their intracellular trafficking pathways. By introducing radiolabelled sulfate and utilizing isolation and detection techniques, this method enables the study of endocytic uptake and trans-Golgi network arrival of cargo proteins.
Protocol
1. Uptake of Functionalized Nanobodies by Cultured Cells (for Sulfation Analysis) In a cell culture hood, seed ~400,000 to 500,000 HeLa cells stably expressing a GFP-tagged reporter protein in 35 mm dishes or on 6-well clusters with complete medium containing antibiotics (Dulbecco's Modified Eagle medium, DMEM, supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum (FCS), 100 units/mL streptomycin, 2 mM l-glutamine, and 1.5 µg/mL puromycin). NOTE: As mentioned above, we here …
