Ataxin 1 Overexpression Lysate

HEK293T cells in 10-cm dishes were transiently transfected with a non-lipid polymer transfection reagent specially designed and manufactured for large volume DNA transfection. Transfected cells were cultured for 48hrs before collection. The cells were lysed in modified RIPA buffer (25mM Tris-HCl pH7.6, 150mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 1mM EDTA, 1xProteinase inhibitor cocktail mix, 1mM PMSF and 1mM Na3VO4, and then centrifuged to clarify the lysate. Protein concentration was measured by BCA protein assay kit.

Defects in Ataxin-1 are the cause of spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 (SCA1), also known as olivopontocerebellar atrophy I (OPCA I or OPCA1). Patients show progressive incoordination of gait and often poor coordination of hands, speech and eye movements, due to cerebellum degeneration with variable involvement of the brainstem and spinal cord. SCA1 is caused by expansion of a CAG repeat in the coding region of the ataxin-1 gene. Longer expansions result in earlier onset and more severe clinical manifestations of the disease. Ataxin-1 binds RNA in vitro and may be involved in RNA metabolism. [Uniprot]
