DARTFISH on BA8 sections with PA gel + Acrydite/BS(PEG)9

Component Volume
40% AB 199:1 Mix 6.25
10% BSA 1
Acryd/Amine Linker 25
H2O 14.75
5% TEMED 1
5% APS 1
BS(PEG)9 1
Total 50
  • Half the volume because limited Acrydite/Amine linker left

Protocol

Day 1

  1. Prepare two plastic culture dishes with 12x17mm hole, tweezers, large plastic dish, and 50C hot plate
    • EtOH and UV sterilize
  2. Make fresh 4% PFA in 1X PBS
  3. Take out BA8 section from -80C and dry on 50C hot plate for 3min
  4. Submerge coverslip in 5ml 4% PFA in 6 well culture plate for 15min at 37C
  5. Wash twice with cold 1X SSPE by submerging
  6. Add 0.25% TX-100 in 2XSSPE and incubate 10min at RT
  7. Wash with cold nf-H2O three times and check for degradation
  8. Add 0.01% Pepsin in 0.1N HCl and incubate for 90sec at 37C
    • 2ul 1%Pepsin + 10ul 2N HCl + 188ul H2O
  9. Wash with nf-1X PBS three times and check for degradation
  10. Aspirate any liquid and place a glass slide with 50um spacer over the coverslip with tissue
    • Secure in plastic jig
  11. Add 50ul gel casting mix filtered and degassed
    • 5% gel with 500uM Acrydite-Amine linker and 5mM BS(PEG)9
  12. Seal in plastic bag and vacuum out air before filling with argon
  13. Let sit at RT for 30min
  14. Aspirate non-polymerized gel and wash once with 1X PBS
  15. Attach coverslip to bottom of petri dish
  16. Aspirate non-polymerized gel and wash once with 1M Tris and once with cold 1X SSPE
  17. Prepare Reverse Transcription Mix on ice and add
